Hi

My HDD was full so I thought I could clear some space. I uninstalled some old nvidia drivers  from my old gpu. I have an amd one now . But afyer that any game i tried to open says my card does not support dx11. I have an r9 270x. It worked fine till i uninstalled the apps. I am running the latest amd drivers. So I restarted windows but it isnt booting . I can get past the bios but it goes to the windows screen and the circle thing keeps spinning and doesn't go past this . 

Please help

take out your hdd and try running something like ubuntu from a usb if that works then it might be that windows has gone and sh!t it self then just reinstall

Try booting into safe mode, check event logs and see if you can find whats going on.

 

You could also try reinstalling drivers from there too or uninstall the amd drivers/software and let it boot into windows normally, see what happens.

You usually press F8 during startup, what version of Windows are you running?

Ok, I just tried the following on my W10 PC.

 

After the bios posts hold shift and repeatedly press F8 until you're shown a screen with "advanced startup options".

 

You'll be able to pick safe mode or safe mode with networking from here.

Well I'd suggest downloading the latest drivers from the AMD website and reinstalling them.

haha no way? I've had that before where just booting to safe mode let me boot back into Windows normally.

 

I was going to say if it was me I'd just reinstall W10, I don't keep anything I need on C: so it's usually quick and easy.

 

Glad you're all sorted.
