Green screen of death in R9 285, Need help.

[Ridska]

Ridska here,

Im having trouble after my friend inserted my HDMI cable to the inter IGPU, The PC started to recognize the internal GPU instead of the stand alone GPU, We plugged the HDMI back to the GPU and black screen.

At fist , me being the dumb ass i am , I thought that the GPU driver was at fault, So i downloaded DDU and nuked the driver and re installed the drivers*, Worked for a few seconds and flickered and black screen. So re nuked the GPU and re downloaded the drivers**, And now it works for a few seconds and then i get a green screen of death. 

 

I'm at a loss here, And iv tried everything that i know of. THe catalist software from AMD wont launch as well! .

 

*= Iv installed the driver by googling '' asus r9 285 drvier '' , and i was having the smae black screen issue.

**= Downloaded the driver via AMD's wedsite and clicked on the R9 200 drivers section with windows 10 64 bit.

 

Please help.

 

Thanks and stay chill.

Wow your friend is a idiot  , try taking the GPU out starting the PC with the iGPU , then shutting it off and just placing the GPU back inside

Nope, turns on for a few minutes and then all of a sudden the entire screen turns green without response.

Maybe its trying to recognize its like a APU and its crashing since its not compatible

Cant acsess the bios for some reason. It crashes and re boots me to the starting screen.

[Ridska]

So , Iv managed to access the bios some how in some way of a form, Tried to turn off the IGPU in bios and the bios didnt have that option. Now after countless loops of tuning on and off, Me dumb dumb decided to try the DDU one more time cuz '' durr 3rd times the charm '' So i launched it and then it recommended me to start in safe mode witch i did and the screen was black aaaaaand----

after that it didnt boot at all. Literally , So after tuning it on and off again, it didn not work, the fans kept spinning but no response from the monitor.

 

So me personnally , i have given up. I have 2 friends along with the and iv given them the job to trouble shoot the problem. I gave it to one of my PC friend and a gamer friend who doesnt know jack shit about PC and who was the one who started this mess that i call shit. First my Pc friend said that the mobo might have short circuited, So we lay it on the kitchen 

After me being in the shower and entertaining myself , They decided to tare down the PC from part to part, To see if the mobo is broken and luckly it wasnt broken.

So from the GPU to the internal sound card, everything was stipped and put back together but the heatsink, The heatsink is out and they tared it down , so for me to re install the heatsink i need thermal past for that job , witch btw i dont have. 

 

So at this point , my pc is fucked up thanks to a guy who is going to build a pc but doesnt know jack shit about pc building , much like a car racer who knows how to drive a car but doesnt know jack shit about building a car or let alone building one. 

 

P.s , Fuck this thing called life.

[NoobCase]

Have you tried another hdmi cable? Or try VGA or dvi output on the card. Resetting the cmos might also work. Your motherboard manual should esplanaden how to.

So now its 11.7.16 as i write this. I went to the local super market yesterday hoping that they would have thermal paste and n/a , non to be found. So my PC friend is letting me borrow his noctua thermal paste for my heatsink.

Right now my PC is at a disarray.  Parts are every where around the food table.

 

P.s , Fuck this thing called life.

[vorticalbox]

On the plus you can totally just put the heat sink back on with what thermal paste was there unless they cleaned it off.  You can get thermal paste on amazon, I use MX-4.

 

So when you boot windows the screen just goes black? Have you tried reinstalling windows?

Because it starts, the fans spin but it doesn't display.
