    Hello, i hope someone can help me to solve this issue. Basically i had to do a format since my Windows 8.1 got corrupted. After the format i reinstalled all the drivers. The problem is that if i install any AMD driver after version 16 and i open a game or something that uses the dedicated GPU i get BSOD. Thats really strange for me because with previous installation of windows i was able to run the 17 driver without any issue, even if the dedicated gpu was staying always active. Any driver before version 16 works (and properly switching the gpu when needed, with dedicated led indicator switching correctly and not always on) but i would like to keep updated drivers. I tried installing all the drivers million times and installing other newers AMD drivers and reformatting but i always have the same BSOD, sometimes I also get irq not less or equal bsod while randomly using the pc using newer drivers. Thank you
