oh jesus it can't even get past the HP startup
okay so after playing mount and warband which i had to turn AMD dual graphics off for, my drivers (specifically catalyst contorl centre) uninstalled itself, they do this only when i have that disabled
so I reinstalled them and did updating through windows device manager
it then blue screened in the middle of that with the error system_service_exception, I restarted it and this came up and its quite clearly a graphics driver problem
I'm in safemode right now, I have no idea what the forget I'm doing, no spare computer and I can't reinstall AMD CCC from here it seems
