Question Installing GPU drivers crashes the PC

[Dan Kom]

So I changed from an intel CPU to a Ryzen including the motherboard and kept everything else. But... my gigabyte RX 5700XT will not accept any driver instalations, where the second I install a driver, it turns off the PC and when I try to turn it on again, it freezes on the loading screen (probably the boot screen with the circle of dots rotating). Earlier when I have the intel CPU, all that I had to do was reinstall an updated driver in safe mode and everything worked out fine. Unlike now where any version of the driver will result in a shutdown.
I have downloaded AMD chipset drivers, updated BIOS, downloaded AMD ryzen master, and clean reinstalled windows.
EDIT: turns out that placing the GPU in the second highest pcie slot on the motherboard works??? (probably because it is slower, or the mobo is faulty)
Thank you in advance

full system spec? include make and model of the psu

Did you do a clean install of the OS, or did you just carry the drive over, with the same Windows install as you had when it was on the Intel system?

Also, as @rgd1101 said - brand and exact model of your PSU.
