Download this.

 

It's a clean up utility that will remove all AMD drivers. Once you download it, reboot into safe mode(after post screen press F8 until it loads). When you boot into safe mode run the utility then reboot into regular Windows and try to install your driver.

 

If it doesn't work, then you might have a faulty card, but to me, it's a software issue in my eyes.
