Driver issues with MSI RX 470

Had a dreaded W10 update hit my personal PC overnight and now I can't get a driver to work on my MSI 470.

I am not mining with this but I previously was on another machine and so it does have the standard strap method BIOS mod on it.  In the past, I was able to get it to work after an update by using DDU but having no luck this time.  This is what I have tried with about 5-6 different Radeon drivers, including most recent for 470's (22.2.2 & 21.10.2) and even some really old ones like 19.9.2 & 17.12.1

- Reboot to safe mode
- Run DDU 18.0.4.9 & reboot
- Install Radeon Driver package

First few times I just rebooted right away but wasn't working so...

- Tried running Pixel Patcher 1.4.12 directly after driver install (before rebooting)
- Found values and success patched & signed driver

Rebooted afterwards but still no luck (getting the super wide & large graphics on screen) and the dreaded Code-43 showing up in Dev Mgr.

So, was wondering if anyone running 470's (either mining or not) on W10 could share what drivers they are currently using. Really baffled by this as I've done it dozen of times successfully both on this personal PC & many mining rigs (before moving those to SMOS).

Thanks in advance for any tips!
