Dump Windoze and install Linux. Problems solved.

I’m staying with Win-7 Pro and all the protection Norton 360, MalwareBytes Premium and CCleaner Premiun provide. Win-10 sucks.

I am far from computer savvy but when I opened my computer and had to go through the whole introduction thing before I could get anywhere, I wasn’t happy. And someone else is usually helping me, no one was here and I didn’t know how to answer the questions. Infuriating! I have a change jar to get an Apple product next, if I live that long.

it’s not that difficult to turn off updates on W10 ... there’s a few services that need to be disabled as well as a few tasks ...

as far as the driver issue is concerned, try uninstalling the radeon driver from “Device Drivers” in Control Panel (but don’t delete the driver files themselves) and then immediately install the new driver software ...

I know this doesn’t help.... but I have been building rigs for a long time. Only 1 AMD. Never again.

A Windows Update Is Causing An Old Problem To Return!

There's a headline ya don't see every day.

But that's probably only because Microsoft doesn't update their OS every day...

Keep the hippies away. They will drop some acid and stare at your screen. You’ll never get them to go away.

What? You don’t like the new modern art screen implementation? It’s designed to improve work flow by making employees frenetic. . . and stay away from the computer except for only very important, very necessary imperative things.

Ping for modern art Windows 10 upgrade, downgrade or sideways grade into the Twilight Zone. . .

It actually looks as if the Exxon Valdez took an oil dump in your monitor. . .

I ended up having to delete my HP video driver and revert to the basic Microsoft one (which only supported one screen instead of my needed two). Then I was able to re-download the needed HP driver and reinstall it. But it was not a simple process and I only got everything back up and working via trial and error.

The reason this may be relevant is that my machine also had AMD hardware.

Windows 10 is pure crap that is so buggy as to be worthless.

After you get the corrupted display shown in "DESKTOP SCREENSHOT," can you open a window that has readable text? I see that your taskbar still looks normal.

Is the problem only with your desktop background?

I did away with the required Win10 updates long ago because of all the bugs and bloated add-on bloatware by turning off a switch in the Registry. No problems to report since then, over a year ago now. Just keep my virus and internet program software up to date. Color me pleased so far.

I update to win10 and still cannot get the Firefox “app” installed so as to select it and it be my default browser. MS has locked me out of even the choice of having FF listed as a choice.
