Would I be able to do this on safe mode? There's no way I can access my normal desktop without putting it on safe mode at the moment..

If you enable network connection in safemode then yes. You can download the program from another computer (if you have one) or in safemode itself but with network connection enabled. After you installed the program you just uninstall the drivers and boot into normal mode again. Then you just reïnstall the newest drivers from the AMD website.

I need help because some stupid setting I applied on the AMD OverDrive thing caused my PC to lose all video output from my GPU instantly when I login

I'm trying to remove the settings applied and uninstall the drivers on safe mode but it doesn't let me. It comes up with an error loading drivers and tells me to restart it. Need help, please.

Download DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller). Go in to safemode and uninstall the drivers. Go back in to normal mode and reïnstall the latest drivers.
