Yesterday, my old r9 270x finally failed on me - it still works somewhat, however i cannot install drivers with it without it crashing and so it is basically unusable

I ordered an rx 570 in replacement, and installed it today to some success: it worked just fine to start with

I then began the process of uninstalling the old corrupt drivers that had been semi installed while I was trying to fix the old card, which I did using the AMD uninstaller software. It then prompted me to restart to finish the uninstall, which I did.

However, after this the rx 570 does not appear to be working anymore - the monitor does not detect it and thus I get no display. I have tried removing it and reinstalling it to no avail, and I I know this is not a problem with the monitor as when I put my old card back in the PC launches and the monitor detects the input.

Any advice? Is this a case of faulty hardware? (Although that doesn't really make sense to me given this only happened after uninstalling the old drivers)

Thanks in advance for any help

Kindly provide FULL PC specs. Try to clear and reset the CMOS settings to default, for the time being. Are you booting in UEFI or LEGACY mode ?

Is this a brand NEW GPU ?
