Did you uninstall your drivers before upgrading/downgrading? If you did, did you use DDU (DisplayDriverUninstaller) when uninstalling them? If you did it manually there could be traces of the old drivers left over so you should always use DDU to uninstall drivers, and if you didn't uninstall drivers at all you should definitely use DDU and reinstall the latest drivers
Something else you could try is limiting your GPU by lowering the power limit either through amd's software or something like msi afterburner, I would also check your temps (not sure if too high of temps could cause this issue or not but its always good to check especially on a old and power hungry card like the 290x)
