    I think I screwed up my graphics drivers, so I reinstalled Windows 7 and now I need to know what I should try to install. Most of the ones I seem to find cause infinite black screens after the windows logos disappear on start up, so I must not have the right one. I looked at the Driver sticky, but I have no idea which I should try.

    Specs:
    Mythlogic Pollux 1612/Clevo P150em
    AMD 7970M
    Intel i7 3720QM

    If this doesn't work, then I guess my AMD7970m is broken, but it works in linux when I use PRIME to offload minecraft to it. Thank You!

    Hello sir,
    if you would like to try using one of our site's drivers (We sell Clevos) feel free to give it a whirl. I'll provide a link. But also, I notice you reinstalled Windows7. After you did this did you install your drivers in the correct order (starting with the chipset driver first)?

    I just realized I navigated away from your post without giving you a link haha. Here you are:
