Can't upgrade my drivers to 12.1...(AMD saphirre HD 6970)

Hey guys, I built my computer a good 5-6 months ago and it's been running great. I've had 0 problems with it and make sure to install new updates once in a while.

Now, my problem is pretty weird and I really don't know what I'm dealing with. Usually when I install new GPU drivers, I delete all my old ones and install the new ones right after. When I do that, the screen use to shrink but never would it lose it's color. As soon as I reinstalled the drivers and tweaked the settings everything would work fine. I never had a problem doing this before so it surprises me that the whole screen loses colors when I do it now. Am I doing something wrong?

This is my screen when it's normal.


When I uninstall the drivers

you used a driver sweeper huh?which one?CCleaner?

if so,the only fix is a OS reinstall,

I've seen that exact problem before,somewhere along the line If you have used ccleaner.it removes part of the os which the AMD ccc needs,the only fix i have seen/used was an OS reinstall.

before my last upgrade,i was playing around with ccleaner,as most people say its ok,(I disagree)so I thought since I was doing an upgrade,I would try it!afterwards when I went to uninstall the ccc,this is exactly what happened,

Even if u used it anytime since your last ccc driver update.

Thats exactly what I said,it isnt rocket science to update AMD ccc,but after using ccleaner,that is EXACTLY what happened.have you ever had this EXACT issue,doubt it,so stop guessing.
been using AMD/ATI for over 10 yrs,not once has this issue ever happened,except after using ccleaner.

updated from 11.2-12.1,no issues..updated from 12.1-12.2 again no issues,so ,no ,I do know what i'm doing.

I never said he DID use it,I ASKED if he did.,I said I used it for *** and giggles and it caused the exact same issue,I couldnt update ccc,system restore,uninstall ccc without this exact issue.I did a lot of searching and never came up with anyone reporting this issue,NOW,maybe for some odd reason,the same conclusion with the same issue came up here between him and I,and there is 2 different fixes,but in my case,even in safe mode nothing could be done,so MY only recourse was a os reinstall.

I tryed several times exactly what you suggested,but in my case,it wouldnt work.So I think you need to do some reading comprehension yourself!

running cCleaner with default settings will not cause this...

let's hope it's just the drivers and re-install of CCC will fix.
have you ever used driversweeper or programs like that might cause harm.?

of course if the reinstall of CCC doesn't help then it's OS (fresh install) time..
sorry.
