for those thinking of dropping one of ATI's new cards in your HTPC RIG, here are a few issues I have.

1. Blue screening in 3D MVC playback
2. unable to set pixel format, empty drop down box.
3. MADVR cant properly, chess demo as an example if unplayable
4. restricted to 4:2:0 if you want HDR and Deep colour (not an issue with the card though)
5. ATI crimson control panel is stripped down missing loads of useful stuff, some has come back with latest driver however.

Need help with 1 / 2 mainly, anyone else had colour pixel format just blank?
 
I would focus on the crashing. If you've got a setup issue or a faulty card than the blanked out options could easily be a side effect.

Have you tried reinstalling the drivers?
 
yeah , full driver removal wipe in safe mode, even did a system restore back a few weeks as a last resort, no joy. BOSD are all dx or ato video driver related and only occur when i'm trying to play something in media player classic, I have other issues too.

I'm going to dual boot another copy of win 10 just to make sure the card is not faulty.
 
Sounds like hardware fault to me
