Trouble with HDMI and getting past windows logo

Hey, randomly this morning my computer monitor would turn off when the computer booted past the Windows logo.

I found using the iGPU instead made it work.
I've since tried plugging a dvi cable into my graphics card instead of hdmi and that also works.

I think there is something wrong with my drivers as it happens as soon as the windows logo goes.

I've tried restoring to two ago's, which is before some Windows updates ran. I've also uninstalled my drivers using the ATI uninstall tool from the installer, then re installed and that didn't seem to help. I might try that again with a uninstaller program but i'm not sure which to use.

The card in question is a Sapphire Vapor x 7950. I think the card is fine, there's just something dodgy going on with my drivers.
