I would suggest uninstalling the old drivers, as they may cause problems.

Yep you're going to have to uninstall the drivers since your GT 630 is an Nvidia GPU and the 7850 is an AMD GPU. You'll want to run this tool in safe mode:

Run it for Nvidia, and I'd run it for AMD as well just because I'm worried you might have AMD drivers on there that you're not suppose to have on there. Also uninstall Nvidia Geforce Experience from your PC if you have it installed. Then after that, use this auto detect software from AMD's website to install drivers for your 7850.
