    BSOD on boot? Usually if that happens a safe mode boot and uninstall of the driver gets it back. Have you tried again?

    Yes and it should after 3 failed attempts bring up advanced boot options like safe mode.

    i haven't had any issues up until now with AMD drivers(excluding the early bsod when the laptop was new and there a couple of issues with the drivers) there are two new drivers and none worked.

    I'm simply giving a recovery method in case you test and it happens again, it's worth talking to AMD and reporting issues.
