Hello, yesterday I downloaded MSI Afterburner to see if I could boost my GPU but once I turned up the core clock and then clicked apply my screen froze so I turned off my pc with the button on the case. Whenever I turned my PC back on it started flickering green and it both my monitors would freeze, I checked that it wasn’t my monitors. Everytime I restart my computer and log in it starts flickering with green again. I can’t find any solution to this. Can anyone help? I need to use my computer ASAP Picture

Do you have a processor with integrated graphics?
Do you possess the knowledge to remove a graphics card properly?

I am not saying this is the ONLY way to fix this issue (you may be able to boot safe mode and default then remove Afterburner) but if you can't do that, pull the graphics card, put the video output on the motherboard, boot and then default and uninstall Afterburner. Reinstall GPU, update driver. Boom. (hopefully no damage to card)
