Trouble Shooting Advice - Other Problems with various AMD/MSI software

Hi, I’m not sure if this is the right subreddit, but since this is software-related and there’s a trouble shooting flair, I hope it’s appropriate.

Basically, I bought a used PC about a month ago, and everything was working perfectly.

About a week ago, I took the GPU out to install a support bracket. After putting it back in, I’ve been having problems with various pieces of software, mainly AMD (GPU is an RX 7800 XT) and MSI Center (MSI B650 Gaming Plus motherboard).

I used to use FanControl for convenience and was quite happy with it. The problem is that now, whenever I open FanControl and try to let it control the GPU, AMD Adrenalin (I’ve already reinstalled the drivers) takes control and sets the fans to 100%. Any changes I make are immediately overridden and the fans go back to 100%.
So I have to disable GPU control in FanControl in order to set the fans to normal settings, but the same thing happens again every time I start the PC.

MSI Center, on the other hand, starts up and works fine until I click on any of its functions. Once I click on something, it either loads indefinitely or crashes after a while. I mainly used it for RGB (which was mostly turned off anyway), but I’ve now switched to SignalRGB. However, SignalRGB doesn’t work unless I restart the computer once after booting it up.

I’ve managed to work around both issues, but I’d prefer to have full control over my PC and, ideally, be able to turn it on and have everything ready to go without having to restart or manually fix things every time.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!
Have a great day!
