Amd catalyst & built-in display driver clash

Hello,
I have a core i5 HP pavilion dv6 entertainment notebook pc with the following specs:
Processor: 2.53Ghz
RAM: 8 Gb
Operating system: Win 7 x64
AMD Radeon HD 6500M/5600/5700 Series: 1 GB
System Model: 3141se
I had a recovery partition on my laptop but a while back when I tried to run it, I kept on getting the same error message " your partition is of GPT style or something like that" and I had to wipe the whole drive and tried recovering from the backup DVDs, without any luck.
Having said that, I installed another copy of Win 7 with the original key provided and it was working fine. A couple of days back I installed a fresh copy of windows and now the problem I am facing is something like that:
Built-in intel display and AMD display driver installs, but I dont see anything in adapter section. Which means no graphics card is installed. When ever I install AMD catalyst driver, my windows turn black and stay that way forever (even though windows in running normally).
Whenever I disable built-in display driver from "device manager" it works fine. But I have had no luck installing AMD catalyst control, I tried literally every version available.
Kindly, help me fix this issue. My Laptop is a crap without the graphics card.
quick help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Use the recovery media to install the AMD graphics driver softpaq.
Choose the AMD video graphics softpaq from the list that appears. The following image is an example from a former HP product loan I was provided by HP. What you see will be a bit different since the notebooks are not in the same model range.

Built in display is gone

The model is W540 , with an embedded graphic card Intel HD 4600 and another graphic card Nvidia Quadro K2100M. And I had the built in display and an external DELL monitor via the VGA port. The OS is windows 8.1 64bit.
The system worked fine yesterday with both displays. Actually it is a new machine and just was received 2 days ago.
And I thought the pre-installed lenovo applications are something I don't need, so I removed most of them except the drivers.
And then I got the issue, that when I power on the box, lenovo logo is shown in the built in display and then the windows login gui is shown in the 2nd display. When I login, the built in display is dark.
I checked the device manager. The drivers of both graphic cards seem okay. And there are 2 dell monitors there but no built in display.
Here are some actions I took.
1) I tried the mini display port. It won't help. Same behaviors.
2) I tried to disable the intel hd 4600. And OS installed a display driver for the built-in display. So I had the built-in display but lost the external display. And the built-in display driver only allow a refresh rate of 64HZ and restricted the resolution to 1920*1200. So weired.
3) I tried to put all lenovo things back. Won't help.
4) I tried to install the inf file package, which was downloaded from lenovo web site, for the display again. Wont help too much.
5) I downloaded latest Nvidia driver for K2100M. And when I tried to install it, it said no compatitable device found. This happened this morning.
Any comments welcome. Thanks in advance.

Thanks Farkus Really good to know
I will give a try later. The box is not at hand...

Satellite A100 (PSAA9E) - Can't install display driver for Windows 7

I have a problem with installing official Toshiba Windows 7 x32 ATI x1600 driver.
After unpacking it should install.exe be executed, I believe, but it's not; nothing happens. Going to Setup.exe with manual install, then I don't see Catalyst Control Center & Display Driver in the list, just Catalyst install Manager & vcredist. After installation these components (CCC & DD) are not present.
Any ideas?
P.S. Same problem with official Toshiba Vista32 ATI x1600 driver.

Hi mate,
Have you already installed other drivers for the notebook? I mean the chipset driver, this driver must be installed first.
And are you sure that you have ATI display driver? Some Satellite A100 models were delivered with nVidia graphic card as far as I know.
By the way, what happens if you install the driver manual in device manager via advanced installation?

PRE won't start / incompatible display driver - AMD HD 6750M

Yesterday I downloaded the trial version of PRE 12, installed it, but it won't run. On startup I get the error message: We have detected an incompatible display driver. To get a better and faster playback performance, please update your display driver. So, I had a look, but both windows and AMD/Samsung say that I have got the latest driver. Re-booted - still no luck. Searched a bit more and somebody suggested to deinstall the AMD Catalyst Manager and re-install. Which I did also, but with no success. Then I deinstalled the driver and/or disabled the card (sorry, I tried so many things to get it to work...), it defaulted back to a generic windows VGA driver. Funnily enough with that one PRE started. I still got the message, but it started. But obviously everything looked ugly and huge. Therefore I reinstalled the latest driver via the Samsung website (since it is a laptop, the drivers are not provided by AMD) and... again, same message, same bad luck = PRE will not start after clicking the message o.k.
Oh, and I did click 'run as admin' and QuickTime is also up to date.
These are the system details:
Samsung Laptop NP700Z5A-S09US series
Windows 7 64bit
AMD Radeon HD6750M
8 GB RAM
Any ideas how to get it to work so I can try it? Thanks a lot!
Claudia

Claudia,
Several laptop mfgrs. use a dual GPU arrangement, with an embedded Intel chip used to save power, and then an nVidia, or AMD/ATI chip for more intensive computing. Under normal circumstances, the computer will switch between the two, but that is not always the case.
While PrE does not really tax a GPU, like some other programs, it DOES interface critically with the video driver for the GPU. The video driver can be rendered obsolete by such simple things, as an OS update. Most general programs do not need that interfacing with the video driver, and so long as there is a video signal, will function. However, programs like PrE, most extreme games, 3D applications, and CAD programs are different - they need a fully functioning video driver, just to run.
Some users have found that if they disable the Intel GPU (often via the BIOS, or perhaps a jumper/DIP switch on the MoBo), and update the nVidia, or AMD/ATI driver (removing the BadDrivers.TXT file), things work perfectly. Others, whose computers DO switch between the dual GPU's, only require the lastest video drivers for both the Intel and the nVidia, or AMD/ATI chips (with removal of the BadDrivers.TXT file).
I think that it would be better, if the computer mfgrs. had a software toggle switch, that would allow a user to simply turn OFF the power-saving aspect of the Intel chip, when using programs, such as PrE - one would still need to keep that chip's video driver updated, but it would make things easier on people, who wish to edit video, play extreme games, or do any advanced 3D work.
Glad that you found the fix, and that all is working for you.
Happy editing,
Hunt

My trial of AMD Catalyst 12.3 and 12.2 pre-certified driver on Macbook Pro 2011 early

I would like to share my experience on installing AMD catalyst 12.3 and 12.2 pre-certified driver on macbook pro 2011 early. Before installing the drivers, I first used catalyst install manager to remove the previously installed driver and then driver sweeper to clean the residuals. After the cleaning process, the macbook pro simply backed to VGA display.
Unfortunately, the setup programs of these two drivers showed different behaviors. The 12.2 pre-certified setup program could detect the 6750M chip and install AMD display driver. You can tell the behavior by watching the messages shown during the installation process. Nevertheless, AMD seemed change the behavior the setup program. The program did not install the display driver & CCC but still continued to install HDMI/DP driver and other stuffs.
In short, if somebody wants to install 12.3, he definitely needs some extra tricks to do so.

Boot into Safe Mode for a while to see if the panics cease. Meanwhile you need to upgrade Parallels to the current version, 7.x. If you are using the USB to Ethernet adaptor then unplug it along with any other peripherals. Uninstall LittleSnitch, Ambrosia extension, and VaraAudio extension (or uninstall the software that installed them using their uninstallers.)

Hi @Ahmed-Aslam
I understand that you are have problems with hibernate and sleep on your notebook.
I would review the attached document. I realize from your post that you have tried some of the things listed, but just check it and see if anything there was missed, perhaps the section on malware issues.
Troubleshooting sleep and hibernate issues in Windows 8
You can also try using system restore to roll back to before the software update to see if that resolves the issue.

Satellite L750D-15E AMD Display driver

Hey :)
I have the Satellite L750D-15E laptop (amd a6-3400m quad core APU with Radeon HD 6520G) with win7 64bit.
The latest update for AMD display driver for my comupter is from 2012:
http://www.toshiba.co.il/innovation/jsp/supportMyProduct.do?LNG=29&service=IL#tab3;
There are a lot more updated drivers and there are a lot of new video games that require updated drivers.
Is there a way to get more updated drivers?
When I try to use the AMD driver auto detect (When trying to download the driver that was detected) it shows me an error that the version of my graphics adapter isn't supported.
I also updated the bios to version 2.10 to see if maybe that solves the problem but it didn't.
my Video BIOS Date is 05/10/11.
Please help,
Lee.

Hi
Display driver for mobile units is pretty limited and notebook manufacturers don't offer some updates very often. Problem is that hardware performance, especially graphic card performance, must be under control and it is controlled by display driver.
With new driver graphic card will offer more performance but with more performance GPU will produce much more heat and it can be very dangerous for al mobile machines.
Cooling system for notebooks is optimized for certain hardware platform and if hardware cannot be cooled down properly result can be either overheating or hardware damage. Thats the reason why you cannot install these non supported drivers. Toshiba don't want to be responsible if you use some third part driver and later come to service with damaged graphic card.
I know it is a bit annoying and everyone of us want to have good machine with high performance but thats the problem with notebooks in general.
To be honest these L models with AMD platform are good notebooks but not some gaming machines so I don't think you can do much about that.
Of course BIOS update has nothing to do with all this.

Does Parallels Deskt 9 do changes to the bootcamp grafikcard driver (AMD Catalyst)

I´m running maverricks and bootcamp with win 7. on bootcamp. im using bootcamp 5 drivers except the grafikcard - latest AMD catalyst driver.
if i install parllel desktop 9 in order just for working with ms office, are there any changes wenn i boot from the bootcamp partition to play games? Will the AMD catalyst driver be changed or will it be the same way as before. i ask because paralles wants to install parallels tools (drivers).?
If there will be any change in my bootcamp installation i will not do it because bootcamp just works very fine.
sorry for my bad english.
best regards and thank for helping
Ekomax1

Youre right the drivers are untouched and nothing changed under bootcamp, but catalyst control center had to be unstalled because it produces an error message under parallels. its a little bit anoying because the control center is usefull for settings under bootcamp.
is there a workaround to deaktivate control center wenn using parallels?
best regards and thank you

Display driver AMD driver stopped responding and has successfully recovered. It is an AMD M880G with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250.
The screen randomly does this starting a day or so ago. Maybe once every few hours or it may do it once every 5 min three times in a row. The screen has random little blue dots here and there.
What do I need to do? Is this something I could potentially fix/replace/etc?

Is this they way you did a factory reset tomu96? Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 7)
If so, that should have resolved the issue, but since it continues to crash if you made no changes after that restore, you probably have hardware failure.
