so i had issues on brother's pc with black screen after windows startup, got rid of that by accidentaly turning on recovery and deleting gpu drivers with ddu in safe mode, now the problems is, when i try to install amd drivers - right after it says installing gpu driver screen goes ''no signal'' and if i restart computer windows still use basic driver, how i can fix this problem

ok sorry There's many drivers there. r9 200 series select the latest for the right operating system, then to the right of the download there,s a list and on the list is "previous driver version" Choose 16.4.2 whql .

The signal may be out of range for that monitor to see (black) without adjustment .The monitor is a 720p at 76hz screen .
Try a different monitor to set it up .You can go back to that monitor when its set up.
If this doesnt work I'm so sorry .you could try plugging in a tv monitor at the same time as that monitor or even a 1080p tv .
I'm really out of ideas now.
You could repost the problem again as its not solved and somebody else may be able to solve it.
Sorry .

Thats just a driver issue . Its time to put latest driver on . Use ddu but dont allow the restart The 16.4.2 was just to get it to work.

For PC players: This may come up as a DirectX error

Delete your Config folder. This is typically found at C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\

As a heads up this will reset your resolution, settings, and keybindings to default.
