AMD display drivers for A8-3500M APU with Radeon Graphics

Hey guys, I hope you're all doing well today!
I have recently installed a fresh version of Windows 7 on my laptop and I'm having a bit of a strange experience with Windows Update.
I went to the AMD website and downloaded the latest version (4/15/14) of the diplay driver that is for my processor and display card; things seemed to work great, however when I ran Windows update there was an "optional update" for the same driver from 2011! I mean, to me that is absurd! Why is this showing up? Have I done something incorrectly?
anyway I have a HP Pavilion dv6, 8gb ram, 64-bit, SP1, yada-yada.

Hey @SparkyCompTech ,
Welcome back to the HP Forums!
I see you have questions about the optional Windows update for your graphics card drivers.
The Windows updates are not meant to be the most recent drivers for your product. You will always find the most recent drivers from the manufacturers website, hence why most of these type of updates are entirely optional. You have done nothing wrong.
If you wish, you can hide the optional update.
To hide updates in Windows 7:
1. Click Start.
2. Type Update in the search.
3. Click Windows Update.
4. Click Check for updates.
5. Click on # important updates are available. Where # is the number of available updates.
6. Right click on the update and choose Hide update. If the update is not shown, click the Optional tab on the left.
Hopefully this helps!

  • Where can I find new display drivers for Satellite P100

    Hello,
    i need new display drivers for my Notebook (Satellite P100), but it's only Version 84.0 to download.
    I need version 162.0 or higher.
    On Nvidia Web-Site is the new 167.0 beta, but does it work with my system?

    The Toshiba graphic drivers on the Toshiba European driver page are not the same like the original graphic driver from the graphic card manufacturers.
    Therefore you cannot compare the driver version numbers!
    Generally the graphic driver which appears on the Toshiba page is the newest Toshiba driver.
    Best regards

    Hi
    The A200 was delivered with the Intel cards and wit nVidia cards!!! So everything right on the Toshiba driver page.
    If you are looking for an nVidia graphic driver I would recommend searching on the Toshiba Canada site.
    http://209.167.114.38/support/Download/ln_byModel.asp
    Furthermore you can visit this 3rd party driver websites which provide also any nVidia graphic drivers for laptops;

    At beginning, the PC continued booting after throwing this issue. But now, Booting sometimes just stops at the very moment when the CPU is not responding.
    ...sounds like a hardware problem to me given the sporadic nature.

    Hello esignshop,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I understand that your notebook computer is behaving slowly after a month of use, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
    Since the processor on your notebook is integrated into the motherboard, I recommend following this document on Improving System Performance without Adding Memory (Windows 8). This should help improve the speed and efficiency of your computer's system without having to replace the entire motherboard with the processor.
    Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

  • Graphics drivers for windows 7 compatible with hp notebook pc 500

    iplz recommend me graphics drivers for windows 7 compatible with hp notebook pc 500

    Hi:
    Download and run this driver.  You will probably get an unsupported operating system error.
    http://h20565.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?s​p4ts.oid=447304&swItemId=ob_47264_1&swEnvOid=2096
    Close out of any error windows.
    Go to the device manager and click on the video controller needing drivers.
    Click on the driver tab.  Click on update driver.  Select the Browse my computer for driver software option and browse to the driver folder that was created when you ran the file.
    That folder will be located in C:\SWSetup\sp34749.
    Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked and the driver should install.
    Reboot and your graphics should be working normally.
    You will not have Windows aero because the Intel GMA 900 graphics adapter is not 100% Vista or W7 capable but at least you will be able to change the screen resolution and have graphics acceleration enabled.

  • Display Drivers for intel (R) G45 express chipset on windows 8(multipoint server 2012) 64 bit

    HI
    I recently bought windows multipoint server 2012 from Microsoft which comes with windows 8. I am having trouble with installing display drivers from my computer's manufacturer. The display device is  Intel (R) G45 express chipset. Intel only supports
    windows 7 and when I try to troubleshoot it's compatibility,  the driver still does not work. I get an error notifying me that my computer does not meet the minimum requirements. My computer system is 64 bit and the drivers I download are meant
    for 64 bit systems,  I am currently using Microsoft basic display adapter and when I try to automatically update the driver it says that the drivers are up to date 
    why do I get the error that my computer does not meet the minimum requirements?
    and what can I do to get the drivers working on windows 8? 
    PLEASE HELP
    THANK YOU IN ADVANCE

    I had the most up-to-date Intel driver installed, as far as Windows can determine (right click Intel display adapter -> update drivers, search automatically). I was also using that exact download you linked me to.
    I also tried switching my graphics card to dedicated discrete mode in BIOS, which made my device ID change, but it too was not supported. I have since managed to reinstall the old drivers from 2010.
    Is there some place I can go to download a more recent version of the Intel drivers than Windows can find automatically?

  • Display drivers for linux

    I have Toshiba Satellite P20, and I would like to install debian or mandrake distribution, however there is serious problem with display configuration. I cannot set proper screen resolution. Does anybody know where I can get drivers for linux?? Graphic chip is GeForce FX Go5200 with atypical screen resolution 1440:900 pixels.

    Hi MichalDyzma,
    months ago I had the same problem with a toshiba notebook of a friend. He wants to install also a linux distribution and I found a very good linux page from toshiba.
    Maybe your model is also listed as linux compatible!?!
    Here is the link www.toshiba-tro.de then go to Operating
    System and Unix based systems.

  • Where can i find Display drivers for Portege 3480CT?

    My Portege 3480 CT has been reloaded with ME after problems with Windows XP. Now i cant find suitable drivers for the Display wich only starts in 16 colour mode with a extremely small screene. I can not find any suitable drivers for my notebook except an update of BIOS on Toshibas homepage. Is my Notebook to old? I think its 5 years.
    /Conny Bron

    Hi Conny
    Win ME was never a supported OS on this model. Try either the Win98 or Win2000 driver. You might have to 'force' the driver into the system.
    Good luck

  • Lenovo c260 AIO - Display Drivers for 32-bit Windows 7

    Hi,
    I am using a Lenovo c260 AIO.
    I purchased it without any OS i.e. DOS.
    I installed Win 7 32-bit OS.
    Now the display isn't working fine. 
    When I try to access other facilities like YouCam or play a game, it asks me to install VGA display driver.
    I tried searching on Lenovo site, but couldn't find a display driver for 32- bit Windows 7.
    Please help.

  • Satellite A500 - Can't find display drivers for Windows 7

    I'm unable to find the video drivers for Satellite A500-1C0, P/N: PSAR3E for the Windows 7 x86.
    I tried on the Nvidia website, they recommended the manufacturer's website....

    Hi
    Normally you can get all drivers here:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
    I have checked this and it seems that at the moment are no 32bit Windows 7 drivers available.
    What you can do now is searching for other display drivers. Maybe another Toshiba notebook has the same graphic card and there are Windows 7 drivers released.
    Otherwise you could try the Vista 32bit drivers. Normally they also work on Windows 7.

  • Why is Lenovo not updating display drivers for Thinkpad Edge E535?

    My display drivers are old almost 2 years now. It's not very professional from Lenovo to be so lazy about updating drivers. Someone asked this before, and guy from Lenovo said to him that current drivers are working OK so there is no need for updating them. Well, newer drivers are obviously working better, but Lenovo doesn't care enough I guess..
    Will never recommend Lenovo to anyone..
    Sorry for mistakes in text, English is my foreign language..

    "and guy from Lenovo said to him that current drivers are working OK"
    No, they are not. I can't update IE10's Microsoft security updates and can't upgrade IE10 to IE11 (and soon IE12) due to the old hybrid driver on my Thinkpad E520.
