Install this driver
I’m guessing since ddu didn’t properly restart your pc, it’s causing issues :val_SusgeNoted:


https://www.amd.com/en/support/download/drivers.html
go to this link
Scroll down and enter ur gpu model
And download the driver for that

Solution
Try this first:
Press windows key
Search “msconfig”
And open “System Configuration”
Head to “Services” tab
Check “Hide all Microsoft services”
And then “Disable all”
And find “vgc” and enable that only
Open “Task Manager”
Then head to “Startup Apps”
And disable all
Then enable all riot related
Then restart your pc
maybe try new port for monitor connection
