Green Screen after drivers update

[rastercrow]

I'm using an amd 7870, and everytime I try to install its drivers I get a green screen and my pc crashes.

The problem is everytime I start the pc, windows 10 automatically downloads and installs the drivers for the amd 7000 series and it causes me to crash.

So in order to don't that I have to stop the update manually by stopping the process of the update.

The latest drivers from the amd site ( 17.3.3 or something like that) don't work, it says they're already installed even though it's not true.

The old catalyst drivers makes it crash.

The gpu works without the drivers, very bad, but it doesn't crash and it doesn't overheat ( 24°c in idle)

What could the problem be? is it the gpu?or something else related to windows and the way it installs the drivers?

I already tried reinstalling windows 10 and it didn't work...

Use DDU. It will cleanly remove the driver and stop windows from downloading it's shitty driver from who knows when.

Yeah I used it to remove the drivers, but even so I don't know what driver I should install.

All the ones I tried didn't work, I got a green screen while it was installing them.

This happened to me on a R7 370. I simply reinstalled Windows and that fixed it for me.

I tried that too. 

But I cleared only my ssd with windows on it and let the hdd with the files untouched.

I don't think I have to format the hdd too... or maybe I should?

No, I don't think so. I didn't clear the SSD though, I just reinstalled it on top.
