AMD Radeon Graphic Card 8670 not working on my Pavillion 15 notebook n259tx win8.1

i recently purchased the above notebook and tried to play some games but i am getting error that my graphic card drivers are either not installed properly or they are missing altogether, i had installed drivers from AMD's autodetect driver tool. Earlier i had installed AMD drivers from windows update but the problem still exists. In the game i am getting memory insufficient error, unable to change graphics and display settings. Game crashes giving me error message as to update my AMD graphic drivers.
My notebook specs are-(dxdiag)

I tried changing settings through BIOS setup, but no such (Advance/Display)setting were available??
I tried setting the app to high performance too through 'Configue Switchable Graphics' option but no success.
Please tell me which drivers i need to install or what i need to do to work my AMD Radeon Card.
This question was solved.

Hi DevangS,
If you are using GTA 4 then that would actually be the problem. According the PC System Requirements for GTA 4 it is only compatible with Windows Vista and Windows XP. Also the game requires a minimum of a 1.8 GHz processor and your model only has 1.7 GHz. You are trying to run an older game on the wrong operating system with hardware that doesn't meet the requirements for the game. Changing the BIOS or the NET framework isn't going to help with this issue.

  • Unable to Launch Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 using High-Performance on AMD Radeon Graphic Card

    I have been unable to launch Adobe Premiere Pro since installing it with the error message "Adobe Premiere Pro could not find any capable video play modules. Please update your video display drivers and start again"
    Here are my specs:
    Lenovo Ideapad U400
    Windows 7 (64bit)
    Intel i5 2.5 ghz processor
    AMD Radeon 6470M graphics card
    The only occasion during which I have successfully launched Premiere Pro was after reverting to the default graphics card on my computer and uninstalling AMD Radeon, otherwise, I have tried to change Premiere Pro to run on High-Performance on Catalyst Control Center to no avail, I do not wish to revert to the Standard Graphics Card as it slows down my computers performance one hell of a lot, neither do I wish to have to constantly uninstall and reinstall my AMD Radeon Graphics Card when I use Premiere Pro. Thank you for your time.

    Update:
    - with Intel (R) HD Graphics Card disabled, Catalyst Control Center reports that no AMD Graphic card is installed
    - using Device Manager under Control Panel, AMD Radeon 6470M was verified to be up-to-date
    - Premiere Pro works so long as I disable the Intel card before launch, however, I re-enable it upon startup to get rid of the 800x600 resolution
    - AMD Mobility Radeon Driver Verification Tool is unable to verify and update my driver, refers me to lenovo to update it.
    - My graphics card is up-to-date as verified by lenovo
    - Intel (R) HD Graphics Card now up-to-date
    - Display currently mainly using Intel (R) HD Graphics Card (Possibly why it caps resolution at 1024x768 when disabled) I'm not sure how to switch the main Graphics Card used, Catalyst Control Center doesn't seem to have the option.
    - when disabled, computer reverts to vgasave instead of Radeon
    - Disabling Radeon does nothing to existing display
    - After updating my Intel card, Catalyst Control Center reported CCC was not supported by the current display adapter
    - CCC worked after rolling back Intel card
         From what I infer, I believe the problem to root from my intel card being the main card used, if there is anyway to switch my radeon card to the default instead of the Intel card, do tell me, I believe this may solve the problem, I apologise for troubling you guys, and I'm starting to feel that I shouldn't be troubling Adobe with my problem with AMD, this discussion is probably really out of place but I hope it will help out others with a similar problem.

  • Any reason a G5 Graphic card will NOT work in a Mac Pro as a second card

    Should I try this?  I don't see any reason why not but would like to make sure
    Thanks

    Should I try this?
    No.
    It won't work.
    Any reason a G5 Graphic card will NOT work
    As explained, the G5 uses Open Firmware and the Mac Pro uses EFI.
    The ROM of the graphics card is completely different for each of the two machines.
    The cards are not interchangeable.

  • AMD Radeon Graphics Card Not Found! Please Help HP Envy M6...

    When I head into device manager, it shows that I have only an Inter (R) HD Graphics 4000 graphics card even though the laptop is said to have an AMD Radeon built in... I've upgraded my version of Windows but it doesn't make sense, why does this driver go away? I've reinstalled every driver there is for the AMD series... I can't get my laptop to detect the graphics card, has anyone had this problem? I've seen this on threads too but the answers weren't helpful at all because they just redirected the user with a link to another thread which isn't relating to a graphics card. Is there any way I can fix this so my laptop can detect my graphics card? 
    Note: When I run AMD's 'automatic driver checker', it CANT EVEN DETECT IT ... Please help me, there's just one too many problems with this laptop aside from the fact that it overheats like crazy.
    Thank you,
    Shehryar.

    This is the picture that I've taken, you can see that the Intel HD Graphics 4000 is indeed there however, I found an unknown device at the bottom. There is NO information of this device, here is the 'info' for the unknown device: 
    Device type : Other
    Manufacturer : Unknown
    Location : On PCI Express Root ComplexUpdate driver will not work. I'll look for more but that's really it... Thanks Shovon_Khan!

    My laptops graphic card is not working

    Hey BCU,
    Can you please tell me what operating system you are using? To see which version of Windows you are using click here: Which Windows operating system am I running?
    Open Device Manager and click View at the top and then click Show hidden devices. Expand Display adapters and Other devices. Tell me if you can see both graphics cards, if one is missing, or if you have a generic Display adapter listed in Other devices.
    You may also need to update the BIOS and chipset drivers for your notebook. You can find them here: HP Pavilion 15-n260tx Notebook PC Drivers.
    If this does not work I would suggest a system restore to when it was working properly. You can do this by repeatedly tapping the F11 key while your notebook boots to access the Recovery Manager. Once in there choose system restore and choose a restore date as close to today but still before the issue started.
    If that does not work I would suggest a system recovery back to the original factory condition. You can also do this with the F11 boot method.
    If that does not work, I would suggest calling HP Phone Support for service options. You can contact HP Technical Support at 1-800-474-6836 in North America. For all other regions click here.
    Let me know if this works!

    Hi @arkas
    Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are having some graphic problems. Did you install that ATI driver from the AMD website? If so that is the problem. You have switchable graphics meaning that you have two video cards. The Intel card is designed for your everyday basic graphics processing while the ATI card is designed to handle the heavy lifting. Switchable graphics drivers are configured by the manufacturer of the notebook not the manufacturer of the graphics card.
    I would suggest that you install your AMD High-Definition Graphics Driver and your Intel High-Definition Graphics Driver. If you are looking for more information on switchable graphics this HP document Switchable Graphics on Notebooks Configured with Intel and ATI GPUs.

  • Satellite P850-133 - extended graphics card is not working

    Hi!
    I just got home my 2 new p850-133 and reinstalled they with a fresh copy of Windows 7, and then the extended graphics card not working, it says "code 10" can't start, what should i do, the integrated intel hd4000 is working really great.

    Hi
    The notebook is equipped with an NVIDIA GeForce GT630M GPU.
    The Toshiba European driver page provides 3 different display drivers!
    2 drivers are for nVidia GPU (v296.0 for 3D and v296.01) and one for Intel (v 8.15.10.2712).
    You have to install Intel driver and one of the nVidia drivers.

  • Graphics Card Does Not Show Up In Device Manager (Re: Installing AMD Video Drivers - Windows 8.1 (Step-By-Step Tutorial)

    This tutorial is a step-by-step tutorial on how to "fix" issues of a new graphics card not appearing in Windows 8.1 Pro, or not appearing (as a device) in Device Manager, or it's not being detected by Windows 8.1.
    This is the "second part" of a Step-by-Step Tutorial on how to install AMD Radeon graphics card drivers in Windows 8.1 Pro.
    GRAPHICS CARD IS NOT DETECTED AND DOES NOT SHOW UP IN WINDOWS 8.1 DEVICE MANAGER
    This problem can appear if the video card is not installed properly in the PCI slot and as a result the card is not detected in device manager. Check the physical connections again, reinsert the card properly in the PCI slot, check the connections (including the power cables going to the video card, and ensure that the fan on the graphics card is spinning and the card does have power and is properly seated/inserted) and then install the drivers from the manufacturer’s website.
    If the video card is in fact installed properly, but the problem of the video card not being discovered/found by the operating system persists, then try these following methods below to check if this solves the problem.
    Method 1:
    First, I would suggest you to run the following Microsoft Fixit to get the problem automatically detected and fixed. This Microsoft "fixit" App checks if the device is currently disabled or turned off or the driver is not installed.
    Hardware devices are not working or are not detected in Windows.
    http://support.microsoft.com/mats/hardware_device_problems/en-us
    Method 2:
    Sometimes, some devices in device manager are hidden due to corrupt or missing drivers.
    Follow the steps below to show hidden devices in the device manager and troubleshoot accordingly.
    Press the Windows key + X
    Select Command Prompt (Admin)
    Type set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1 and hit enter
    Type Start DEVMGMT.MSC and hit enter.
    Once in Device Manager hit the View menu and select show hidden devices.
    From here, remove each instance of the AMD or Nvidia card you see as well as each unknown device. Exit Device Manager and reinstall the latest drivers you can find for your graphics card.
    After you install the drivers, reboot and see if you get any different results.
    If the above solved your problems and the Graphics Card is now working and is now being properly detected/displayed in Windows Device Manager:
    If your graphics card is now being detected by Windows 8.1 in Device Manager, but has a "yellow exclamation" mark (or video drivers are not found or not properly installed or the device is disabled) then install the latest graphics card drivers and proceed with this Step-by-Step Tutorial on how to install AMD Radeon graphics card drivers in Windows 8.1 Pro.
    Method 3:
    If methods suggested above does not help, I would recommend you to contact Apple/AMD/NVIDIA to get the latest chipset, BIOS, graphics card drivers installed properly.

    I have two graphics cards in my PC . after I had to reinstall windows again has been slower pc and stuff not play 4k footage . Can you help me find out about it " Raks " graphics card has stopped working ?

    I'm not aware of any, not to say that there aren't any issues.
    it may have nothing to do with ntpd, there are a lot of things running.
    ntpd just happen to make the log entry at the same time as the panic.
    I would check to see if there are any updates available for you system.
    if this is the first time that this has happened. it may be (pick one):
    cosmic rays
    sun spots
    the trilateral commission
    if this happens more frequently and that traces look the same, then
    there may be a real problem that needs to be looked into further.
