Microsoft Basic Adapter is Windows GIVING a display WITHOUT a Driver.

 

The GPU is driverless right now, so Windows uses a Basic driver for it to output a display for you in the meantime...

 

 

You DO however, need AMD drivers to fix this and get your performance back.

If you did this already, it didnt work, or you chose the wrong drivers and they did not install.
