<![CDATA[[Critical] Opera GX Black Screens after updating AMD Drivers]]>Hello, Earlier today I Updated my AMD Display Drivers to version 27.20.1032.2. Then I opened Opera GX and Saw that Opera GX is nothing but a Black Screen. I Tried restarting, re-installing, etc. but nothing happened. Then I started rickrolling, I mean rolling back the drivers. And, It worked. I know the cause of the black screen.

This is a critical problem because a lot of people are going to start updating too.

How to reproduce:

  • Have an AMD Ryzen™ CPU
  • Go to Windows Updates
  • Check for updates
  • Under Optional Updates you can install your Opera-Breaking Display Driver (Don't)

Exact Name of the Update: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. - Display - 27.20.1032.2

My Computer specs:

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 4800H with Radeon Graphics
  • RAM: 16GB
  • GPU 0 (Deticated): NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Ti
  • GPU 1 (Intergraded): AMD Radeon™ Graphics

I might try regular Opera sometime later.

What about other Chromium based browsers?
