Hello everyone.
I have a 2017 27” iMac model with a Radeon pro 580 and I’ve been trying to install the April Blue Enterprise Drivers, following all the steps outlined in the YouTube video and whenever I reach to the final part of the process where I need to install the driver after cleaning out the old one 3 times in DDU via safe mode, I get massive amounts of screen flickering that then forces the computer to shut down and enter into a automatic repair process which at that point, I give up and enter into startup to select the macintosh disk to delete the partition of windows 10 and start all over again.
I’ve done this 3 times, I frantically scroll to see any other solutions like not enabling factory reset on the graphics driver installation and I keep running into the same problem over and over again. Can anyone please help me as I just want to benchmark Doom Eternal but it’s become very stressful and tedious and I don’t want to give up as I’m hopeful someone here can give me the right direction to fix my problem.
Thank you all for your understanding.

Thank you for the advice, the problem I have is, I also didn’t click on factory reset the first time after cleaning out my drivers and I still had the flickering that eventually shuts down to an automatic repair loop.

The hole screen is flicking ? Normally the screen flickers to the left side, then flickers outwards and closes down the computer to do an automatic repair loop even when I have unticked the factory reset button. It’s disappointing for me as I really have no idea why this happens to me even though I’ve taken the right steps to try and mitigate this problem.

did you run DDU in safe mode windows 10 ?? Yes, here’s what I am doing for the installation that usually ends up not working. 1) I download the April Blue drivers, I save them to my desktop, I also unzip the 7-zip of the DDU and I restart the iMac into safe mode while holding down the shift key to make sure it works 2) I open up DDU in safe mode and I clean out all the drivers 3 times without restarting and then clean the final time with restarting back to normal mode. 3) I then open up the setup for the custom adrenaline drivers and then did not click on factory reset, the installation process is going well until the final moment where I click on yes for the driver to install from windows and the screen starts to flicker horribly and essentially force the computer to shut down and enter into a automatic repair loop. 4) I give up trying as I’ve done this 4 times and I haven’t seen a proper explanation or solution to this problem

I have exactly the same problem on my 2017 iMac 5k with the low-end Radeon Pro 570 (4GB). I have tried everything, including a fresh Windows 10 installation, without installing any Apple's drivers, and installing these drivers. In my case, the right part of the display starts flickering bad (out of sync, I think), like an old TV, and then the whole screen starts flickering, and then the computer reboots and Windows only opens in troubleshooting mode (Windows doesn't like it at all!) and the best thing then is to start over. I had success in the past up to January 2020 Blue drivers, but the normal one, not the one that says "best for MBP 16 and Radeon 500 series". To my understanding, after reading " How are you modifying these drivers?" Mat HD says he's modifying the display drivers, please, Mat, can you try to release a driver pack without these "boost performance" modifications. Speaking for myself, I'm happy with the performance with the current official drivers, I just want compatibility updates, Horizon Zero Dawn doesn't render right with Apple 3/2020 (current) drivers.

I feel you mate, I have absolutely no luck either and I even tried a different version of Windows 10 and the results were exactly the same. At this point, I don't want to do this anymore, it's not worth the trouble anymore which is a genuine shame as I had high hopes it would be working but not at this point.

Slight flickering in macOS too after that crap in Windows. Don't worry, just use the computer normally and the flickering will go away and a couple of minutes.
