Way to go Stratman69!
Welcome to Sevenforums! :)
ok so after carring the aforementioned steps it still came to the same problem.
so after searching through the possible causes again i came across some posts in the game.amd. forums that mentions that the monitor can cause the screen to black out.
So i booted into safe mode and i see that the ATI drivers for my HD 4770 are indeed installed, its just that there are no monitor drivers installed. (My Computer -> Properties -> Device Manager )
Some people suggest that if you connect a VGA monitor in you can go in and load up CCC but i cant do that as i have no VGA ports.
have also tried VGA->DVI
sighhhhh
AMD Game Forums - HD 4870 Vista black screen / no monitor signal after install
the thread i was talking about
my Saphire 4770 works just fine with drivers 9.8-9.9 under P35 chipset.
Spacerat, not sure if the monitor driver missing is causing problems. In all cases I've seen, that shouldn't. Doesn't mean it's not though.
Boot into safe mode with networking and do a Windows Update. See if it gives you a driver for your monitor. What monitor is it?
I have 3 monitors , and ive tried all 3 , a Proview , Lg and Chimea

ended up rolling back the driver, used driver sweeper and installed agin so fail.
still after the windows 7 splash it dies in its ass.
