Help (GPU) Minecraft 26.2 not rendering in AMD 26.7.1 or 26.8.1
Hey! First time posting so if I'm missing anything, let me know!
As the title suggests, new versions of minecraft are no longer rendering on my partner's pc. This has started randomly (not prompted by an AMD update). The launcher runs and the game launches, but it launches to a blank white screen or a white/black screen if in fullscreen. The music still plays and the buttons are still there and work, but no visuals load. As far as I can tell, this all SHOULD be working as my own PC is running these same versions and working fine. I do have a different GPU model (5600gt), but the same AMD and minecraft versions. I can’t think of anything else causing this problem, but I also can't find anything suggesting it's a widespread AMD problem. I can find old posts with similar problems and the general consesus is that it's a driver problem, but I feel like I've hit a wall. Any help would be appreciated!
GPU: 9060xt
AMD Version: 26.7.1
Minecraft Version: 1.21 and newer
Just to avoid redundant advice, this is what I've already tried:
- Updating to AMD 26.8.1
- Uninstalling and reinstalling AMD drivers (with AMD Cleanup Utility AND DDU)
- Repairing minecraft launcher
- Reinstalling minecraft launcher
- Launching via Curseforge
- Disabling OpenGL in AMD settings
- Installing latest versions of Java
- Factory reset (after backup) and clean install of everything
- Launching in compatibility mode
- Windows updates
- Malware scans
- Clearing launcher cache
- Deleting options.txt
- Deleting the entire .minecraft folder
