- Installed Win10 on the gaming rig on the very last days of the free upgrade.
- Installed a Sapphire Nitro 470 two days ago
- Last night, got the error message that cannot access AMD settings
(checked and saw the device manager reports the device correctly)

- Used the AMD clean uninstall utility to remove the drivers et all and reinstalled with the latest hotfix driver.
- This morning I got the BSoD with a video display error (was watching a youtube when it barfed)

I hope these things won't be a permanent addition to my system.

I would use Display Driver Uninstaller with the boot to safe mode option and see if it helps. I think know there is a option to click which disables the windows auto driver install also.

No problems with my Sapphire RX 470, but I also did a clean install of Windows 10 after upgrading. The only issue I see is Wattman tends to crash so the first time you open it, so you have to go back in and open the Radeon control panel again.

I got an error like that in Win7 64-bit with the latest (at the time, maybe a month ago) drivers, when I had my Intel Skylake HD 510 iGPU installed, enabled, and as primary. (With a 7950 3GB card installed.)

IOW, AMD's GPU control panel / settings app only runs if the AMD card is the primary display adapter.

No issues here. Just plugged the cards in, reinstalled drivers and that was it.

Something else is probably causing it, DDU might solve whatever it is.
