COMPUTER PROBLEM!!! URGENT!!!

[fizzle-187]

Basically, I just installed a new 5770 GFX Card and installed the drivers from the cd and which I restarted. After this, I cannot log into windows it sends me onto a launch startup repair.

Although, after the startup repair has completed it says cannot repair this computer automatically and begins to send through the option.

It says: "If you have recently attached a device to this computer, such as a camera or portable music player. remove it and restart your computer. If you continue to see this message. contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance"

I have no devices attached? :S

Once the computer restarts it boots up onto a blank screen with nothing displayed. After this, all I can do is restart and then the same method repeats itself.

What do I do? What is the problem?

I installed the ones from the cd and I now have a black screen!

Have I messed up?

It keeps sending me to Startup Repair and when I send information about this problem it says windows cannot repair this problem automatically and restarts the computer over again.

How do I run safe mode?

 

[fizzle-187]

When I press F8 is says Please select Boot Device?

 

[fizzle-187]

ye the mobo you are using does that as F8 is also used for the boot options

select the drive with your OS on it and press enter then keep tapping F8 immediately after that

Bloody Hell, Ok Third attempt let me try.

Which drivers do I need to install? (which you recommend for 5 Series)

 

[fizzle-187]

Should I just install the driver?

As It won't let me uninstall any programs on Safe Mode.

 

[fizzle-187]

I tried to install the drivers you listed whilst installing and it says:

"failed to load detection driver"

 

[fizzle-187]

Ok,

Just installed the 10.2 drivers however, when I try to open up the Catalyst Control Center it says:

"cannot be started because the currently active GPU is not supported"

WTF?

"The Catalyst Control Center is not supported by the driver version of your enabled graphics adapter. Please update your ATI graphics driver, or enable your ATI adapter using the Displays Manager"

Also, the max resolution I can have on my 22" is 1400x1050 instead of 1680.

What is the problem now? I swear ATI cards are so problematic.

 

[fizzle-187]

Cmon people! I need help ASAP!

 

[fizzle-187]

Never Mind! Issues Fixed and resolved!

Cheers for the help guys!

Just out of interest - and for the benefit of others with the same issue - what was the problem and solution?

Crazy B

I had installed the drivers from a CD which ATI had provided. This was a bad thing as my PC kept hovering to a Blank screen and restarting whilst using the startup repair momentarily. I had found a solution which was to access safe mode and uninstall the current drivers and software and then installing the 10.2 drivers which Macca provided me with. After this, I had installed all drivers and softwares and rebooted my system and it worked!!

A big thanks to all the OCuK folks for helping me out!
