Hey. Your new GPU (XFX RX 6750XT) has caused some changes... - Game speed isn't perfect in most titles, with frequent FPS drops and possible VRAM strain (Overwatch 2 uses under 2GB). - On startup, your motherboard brand logo is missing, only basic text remains. - When launching Windows, the boot screen shows Vista loading bar (see attached image). UPDATE: Removed Veracrypt, so the BIOS prompt disappears during restart. I'm trying to access the troubleshooter but it doesn't appear when I go back to Windows. CPU is Intel i5 9400f, RAM 32GB, GPU XFX RX 6750XT, PSU 650w. Edited January 14, 2024 by Smux
It's generally advised to reinstall Windows after upgrading the GPU. Removing graphics card drivers through DDU may help, but reinstalling ensures compatibility and optimal performance.
I’m pretty sure the information came straight from AMD, and since Bitdefender is already installed, I’m not sure what’s going on. I think my card supports dual BIOS, so I’ll give it a shot—I guess.
