Hi
My HDD was full so I thought I could clear some space. I uninstalled some old nvidia drivers  from my old gpu. I have an amd one now . But afyer that any game i tried to open says my card does not support dx11. I have an r9 270x. It worked fine till i  installed the apps. I am running the latest amd drivers. So I restarted windows but it isnt booting . I can get past the bios but it goes to the windows screen and the circle thing keeps spinning and doesn't go past this . 
Please help

On another PC, download the Windows 10 media creation tool and use it to make a win 10 installer on USB << its just a boot disc

we can try start up repair
change boot order so USB is first, hdd second
boot from installer
on screen after languages, choose repair this pc, not install.
choose troubleshoot
choose advanced
choose start up repair - this will scan PC and maybe fix this - will ask for logon info

if that doesn't help, boot off installer again and follow same steps to the advanced menu but choose system restore instead
if you lucky, there is a date matching the day you installed the new drivers, pick it and it will roll PC back to just before you installed them

what you might have to do is follow this and delete both...

what you might have to do is follow this and delete both Nvidia and AMD drivers from PC and reinstall AMD ones again: http://www.tomshardware.com/faq/id-2767677/clean-graphics-driver-install-windows.html

Are you on the Anniversary edition of win 10? If you still on an old version its possible the AMD drivers are only supporting DX11.2 as the original build of Win 10 didn't have DX12 turned on for AMD cards.
