After installing the Logitech Gaming Software for my new G502, my desktop colours suddenly went all washed out. I tried uninstalling the Logitech Gaming Software and AMD drivers then re-installing AMD drivers. Same thing. I used DDU to uninstall the AMD drivers and then re-installed them. Still washed out. So I tried using the latest Beta drivers. Nope. Also, whenever I finish uninstalling the AMD drivers, the colours look perfectly fine. It's just when I install the drivers... Also, whenever I log on the colours look overly saturated and the screen is dark but then goes washed out a few seconds after. I'm assuming that's because the display driver was loaded.

I tried restarting the drivers by: Device Manager > Display adapters > AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series (disabled then enabled). I noticed that when I disabled it, the colours looked fine but once I enabled it, colours are washed out again.

I've read that some people changed a setting from RGB to YCBCR444 and that fixed their issue. I can't seem to find that option in AMD CCC, as I don't have a HDMI cable.

I'm running Windows 8.1 64bit with a Sapphire 7850 2GB and the AMD 14.9.2 Beta-14.301.1006 drivers.
