AMD has formally acknowledged a problem affecting its graphics cards, the bug is actually in the latest Radeon Software update, which can completely block Windows installation. According to the statement, this error affects “an extremely small number of instances”, but no further information about the disaster was given.
The error occurs when using the “Factory Reset” option after Radeon software update, causing you to lose access to the boot driver. This means that the operating system is completely blocked and inaccessible to the user.
New AMD drivers ruin everything in Windows
The company has closed the bug, making it easily traceable. As they say, the error starts when the user updates the latest drivers at the same time as H2 installs a Windows update through Windows Update. Ok, that’s a very special case, but it’s not strange that it happens either.
AMD recommends against using the factory reset option and make sure windows update is not working before installing a new disk.
We have reproduced an issue that can occur in a very small number of cases if a PC update occurs during the installation of AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition, and we are actively investigating it. We recommend users to ensure that all system updates are applied or stopped before installing the driver and that the “Factory Reset” option is unchecked during the AMD driver installation process. We are committed to resolving issues as soon as possible and strongly encourage users to submit issues with AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition through the bug report tool.
