Cant change my graphic card on my laptop

Hello all,
My laptop use the intel graphics at default and  I want to change it to my Radeon graphics. But when I right click on my desktop and click on the second option to change graphic card, nothing happens and no error message. The same goes for Catalyst control center. The devicemanager however detect both the graphic card and there is no error.
The thing I tried:
- Uninstall and installing CCC and Driver from radeon or amd website.
- Uninstall and installing CCC and driver from HP site.
My laptop is:  HP Pavilion 17-e010ed
I'm not a computer savy but I hope anyone can help.
Kind regards,
rockethole

  • Can I change the graphic card on Toshiba Satellite S55-A5295 or add more dedicated video RAM?

    Hello, I am wondering if it was possible to change my graphics card. Currently its using the basic (Intel HD Graphics 4000/Family). If thats not possible then I'd also like to know if it was possible to dedicate more video RAM since it currently has 64MB out of the total 1696 avaliable graphics memory. And before someone mentions the BIOS option sadly its not shown there. Please let me know if I have any options!

    There is no option to change the GPU on this laptop model. As per memory sharing, it is done automatically by the chipset sharing around 10-20% of the physical memory to the graphics memory.
    What will you be using the higher ram?
    Is it gaming, media editing (video / photo), or 3D editing?

  • Can I upgrade my (Graphics Card) on my laptop?

    Hello can my (Graphics Card) on my laptop be upgraded 
    this is mine  http://gyazo.com/e10f4147557ec792856f20c0e215e553

    Hi:
    There are no graphics 'cards' in your notebook.  The graphics is part of the motherboard and cannot be upgraded or replaced without replacing the entire motherboard with a supported one listed in the service manual for your model--assuming one has better graphics.
    Replacing the motherboard would cost you about as much as buying a new notebook with better graphics.

    Hi:
    Unfortunately in most of today's notebooks (including yours), the graphics cannot be upgraded.
    I looked at the service manual for your notebook, and there aren't even any other motherboards with better graphics available.
    You can try the latest drivers from AMD to see if that helps, any but you can't do anything with the hardware.

    Hi,
    What is the model/product of your laptop ? Generally speaking: we can't upgrade video card for nearly all laptops.

  • The model of graphics card on my laptop and on the product specs on hp website are different

    i have an HP Pavilion 15-e001AX   laptop, the model numbers of the graphics card on my laptop and the specifications given on hp site are slightly different.
    AMD Radeon HD 8650M/8670M  is specification given on web and AMD Radeon HD 8650G + 8600M Dual Graphics is given on my laptop.
    are these 2 the same? if so why is it displayed differently on my laptop?...
    This question was solved.

    Hi:
    The HD 8650M is a typo on the HP specs.  The correct name of the graphics adapter is the  HD 8650G.
    That is the onboard graphics adapter. 
    The 8670M is the discrete video adapter which is supposed to kick in when the graphics demand is too much for the 8650G.
    Now for some odd reason, the device manager lists the 8670M graphics adapter as an 8600M because that is how the driver file description for the 8670M graphics adapter hardware ID is labeled.
    But your notebook has an 8670M discrete graphics adapter.  There is no such adapter as an 8600M.
    The 8600M is the series name.
    Below are the graphics adapters in the 8500M and 8600M series

  • After changing my graphic card to an ASUS Strix GT 970, Photoshop CS6 opens the JPG files without show them on the screen

    After changing my graphic card to an ASUS Strix GT 970, Photoshop opens the JPG files without show them on the screen

    Try turning off GPU support in your Photoshop's preferences performance section.  Also check that you have installed the latest device driver installed for your GT 970 adapter and that all CS6 updates are installed... Your CS6 should be version 13.0.1.3....

  • Can i change a graphics card in macbook pro retina 15?

    Dropped a coke on macbook pro retina 15 and need to change a graphics card can i do it???

    The gfx hardware is integral with and soldered to the logic board, so "no" to your question.
    If you have a black screen after a spill of a carbonated (= mildly acidic) drink, you've probably zapped more than graphics hardware.
    Many such spills are not recoverable. The repair price can approach the cost of a new computer. If you have honmeowners'/renters' insurance, put them on notice of the accident ASAP. Many people have found that their home policy covers accidental damage to electronics including computers, subject to a deductible. Often it's the only financial help you'll get in recovering from a liquid disater.

  • Questions about changing the graphic card

    Greetings I need to change the graphic card that came with my computer Pavilion 500-308nrit's GeForce GTX 745 4Gb with GeForce GTX 960now i have couble questions the graghic card that i'm going to buy has a bigger cooling system so is't going to fit inside the case?the GTX 960 require a minimum power supply with 400W so is't gonna be a problem if i changed the power supply?. and is there is a specific power supply that will work better with my PC? and thank you

    Hi, The specifications for 500-308nr indicate an external 180 watt power supply supply. Is that true?  If the specifications are correct then you will not be able to install an internal power supply.

    The Newsstand app acts different from other app. Each magazine is a separate app therefore they are deleted individually as if they are apps. You can't delete Newsstand. One last step, after you tap the tiny x, tap the home button to stop the wiggling.

  • Adding dedicated graphic card to my laptop

    I have I5 core E5-571P-59QA laptop, and I have intel HD 4000 family integrated graphic cards. Is it possible to add dedicated graphic card to my laptop? Intel HD 4000 is decent enough but I want to play more graphically intense games .

    to my knowledge the answer would be "no" to an upgrade to graphics as the laptop is not designed for that, it uses integrated Intel HD-4400 graphics which are decent for basic gaming.

  • Can I change the graphic card in my Imac 21.5 2012 year

    Can I change the graphic card in my Imac 21.5 2012 year.

    You can't change the graphics card on 2012 model of iMac (unless you are talking about the THICK iMacs then I don't know). If you do want to change graphics card, then it probably needs expertise on soldering skills. CPU, RAM and HDD/SSD can be changed. The RAM is not soldered in. I have seen someone changed the RAM. Please check iFixit website for information on 2012 iMac:

    Also, don't forget that the screen is glued.
