100% Done with AMD Crimson Drivers

Oh, so you agree he's overreacting? Which is it? Is he overreacting or is everyone else claiming to be without these issues a blind fanboy?

Clarification, saying you are not experiencing the same problem does not make you a fanboy, that is just letting the person with the problem know they have an issue that does not effect everyone.

Frustrated announcement, the original poster has every right to be frustrated. They are doing as the consumer should and holding the company they purchased from responsible for their products.

Condescending statement, rather than being said companies free damage control unit.

If anyone asks you never saw me.

People telling tonroll back his drivers are engaging in damage control?

*thud*

No, those telling them it's the original posters fault and that there are no problems with the drivers are. Since there are clearly multiple problems with the Crimson drivers. More so than the drivers they replaced. So rolling back is a good idea.

I had problems with the colour profiles with the crimson drivers, the gamma was way off on my screens on desktop, so i rolled back to the final catalyst driver. 

 

I never had problems with games with crimson (colours where dark actually) though.

I have 380 and all my games run buttery smooth without stutter. I love the Amd crimson software. I don't see why you have so much trouble

DDU is your friend when updating AMD drivers. ;) 

 

I 2nd the voices of other people here suggestion to run malwarebytes (in safemode without networking), anti-virus scan, general PC clean-up. Run DDU to get rid of ALL current AMD software, then reinstall and try again. If it's still giving issues, try reinstalling the latest stable version of Catalyst until the next Crimson drivers are released. 

 

FWIW - with regards to AMD vs Nvidia drivers; since switching from a 290 to crossfire 290's then to a single 980, I can honestly say I haven't had one single crash or issue since jumping over to the green side. Just the other day I updated the Geforce drivers and didn't have to run DDU. Just downloaded and installed with a single system restart required. Took 2 mins via Geforce experience. No fuss, no need to wipe the PC of all current drivers etc. It just worked. I'm not saying Nvidia has better drivers, just sharing my observations. In my experience, the Nvidia drivers, thus far, have been much easier and convenient to deal with. That may change over time though, only been using the 980 for about a month so far.
