I am having a strange problem with my XFX 6950 1GB GPU. When I install drivers, I get a black screen as soon as the Windows log-on screen arrives. When no drivers are installed, or when I am in BIOS, there is no black screen.
I tried 14.4 drivers and also 13.12 drivers but getting the same black screen problem on log-on screen. Sometimes there is no black screen even when drivers are installed, but as soon as I do even the slightest of activity on the PC, I get the black screen.
This is really infuriating. Even though I have used my GPU for approx 3 years now, I still want to use it more since it can run pretty much any game out there easily. Please help me solve this problem.
I have cleaned contacts, tried pulling all components out and putting them back in, removing all USB drives etc. Temperatures hover around 48*C on idle. And around 73*C on load.
My PC information is given in the drop-down beneath my avatar and username (on the left).
