I would first download the Windows Installation file (.ISO) to your PC before clicking on upgrading Windows from Online first. It will upgrade your Windows to the latest version plus keep all of your 3rd party Apps.

If you have an older version of Windows 10 then go to Microsoft Windows download page and click to Update Windows. It will keep all of your current 3rd party Apps and configurations except replace your Windows Folder with a new one. Run the same Windows 10 version Installation files from your Flash drive/HDD/SDD or from Microsoft Download page you have installed while on your Windows Desktop. Try doing a In-Place Repair of your current Windows 10. Sound like your Windows is corrupted since both the AMD driver and Update doesn't work. We already have a universal interface thanks to the display servers, it's just waiting for someone to wrap it up in a bow and make it nice and pretty.Which Windows 10 version do you currently have installed? We wouldn't need to depend on proprietary control panel software anymore. If someone wrote an open source package that wrapped all the xrandr/'whatever the Wayland equivalent to that is' commands needed to do all the things that Catalyst/Nvidia control panel into a simple, and easy to use driver agnostic GUI, that would make life so much easier. My point was just that AMDs proprietary driver package is the only one that ships with the Catalyst software for configuration. That's usually how it works nowadays as it's more efficient than running a driver in userland, and also allow interfacing directly with the card through the driver if needed. As far as I know both drivers are running as kernel mode modules that simple receive commands from the display sever, be it X or Wayland. I believe the x11 driver are just the drivers that are packaged for Xorg instead. Whatever distro you use, you get the best AMD driver it has by default.Īs noted, however, what you don't get is anything to configure/tweak the card.If they're using the default GNOME desktop it likely had the Wayland drivers installed by default. Ditto, the 590, Vega 56, Vega 64, etc.) because it releases its driver code for all those cards as open source and it's incorporated in the kernel. If memory serves, the 'xorg-X11-drv-amdgpu' package in the repos moves things back to the X server.ĪMD has no reason to release Fedora drivers for its Pro line of cards (which, again, the 580 isn't. I.e., 'moves this process from the X server's DDX drivers to the kernel'. I'm a little fuzzy on this, but Fedora deals with current AMD cards via kernel modesetting.
