I'm on 16.11.5. Use DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) to cleanly remove your current driver, then install the old one

Hi all,

This is my second post about this situation.

I have two rx480s in crossfire and everything works fine except for some little problems with the second card:

Each time when I boot my pc when at the login stage the second card turns off it's led and starts blowing its fan at 100%. shortly the fans calm down back to normal but the leds won't light back on.

Unless, I go to AMD Crimson Relive (I have the latest version installed) and go to games -> w.e -> WattMan. When I'm there, the second card's led turns back on and if I close the application it turns off again.

Also, when I boot my pc, there's a error saying "Default Radeon WattMan settings have been restored due to unexpected system failure" I looked up but didn't find much answers.

Many thanks if anyone would be able to solve this.

I think it's a driver issue (I had a lot of issues with the ReLive update), so maybe reverting back to the last driver before WattMan and ReLive could help

I just built this PC and it's the first time I install the driver
