Driver issues for Radeon HD 6750M switchable graphic card

Hello guys, took time for me to decide wether to join forums like this just to get real help coz goggle doesn't show any solution with my issue. i was able to update my video card with the old raptr app from amd and allowed me to maximize the feature of my laptop. after format i can't install these drivers "sp52929 & sp61216" for the said graphic card and the new and updated raptr is not somehow working. i get this error "The contents of the file cannot be unpacked. the executable you are attempting to run has been corrupted. please obtain another copy of the file, verify its integrity and try again" (monitored the download and its not corrupted or anything) or using the driver from amd official site (tried different versions like amd-catalyst-omega-14.12-with-dotnet45-win7-64bit, AMD-Catalyst-HDMI-Hotfix-Win8.1-Win7-Dec10 etc.), the installation is fine but it's not functioning and this is the error i get "no amd graphics driver is installed or the amd driver is not functioning properly. please install the amd driver appropriate for your amd hardware" and "you do not have the compatible vga hardware to driver" during installation it reverts my resolution back to 800x600 as if it conflicts with the Intel HD Graphics Family. tried uninstalling intel hd graphics family first and install the radeon but it seems that the driver itself really is the problem. does anyone here experiencing the same? or someone here who can tell me what's really going on? thanks i advance Referrence: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Display-and-Video/latest-driver-for-amd-graphic-card-not-working/m-p/5150764#M113344

Please uninstall the currently installed Intel Drivers and AMD driver. (if present in Programs and features and device manager).Once all traces are removed, restart the PC and install the Driver file sp52929.exe becase (read the yellow text below) Download Link:ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq//sp52501-53000/sp52929.exe Info:ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq//sp52501-53000/sp52929.html This package provides the AMD High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver and Catalyst
Control Center for supported notebook models that are running a supported
operating system. For notebooks with switchable graphics modes, this package
includes drivers for both graphics processing units (GPUs). Switchable graphics
enable users to switch between a power-saving graphics mode (normally used under
battery power) and a high-performance graphics mode. If high-definition

Installation of ATI driver for Radeon X1300, X1400, V5200 graphic cards on Windows 8.1

Dear Thinkpad users. After many failures and zero support from official resources, this is a comprehensive, unbiased installation procedure for the official ATI driver with Catalyst Control Center for Radeon X1300, X1400, V5200 graphic cards on Windows 8.1. In my experience, the latest driver for these cards written for Windows Vista 32-/64-bit works flawlessly on Windows 8.1 and you will benefit from multi-monitor support, full HW-acceleration and the PowerPlay option in Catalyst Control Center as well. Install only the official ATI driver, no other modification required. (The installation may work also on non-Thinkpad systems, such as Dell etc. but I have not tested it on that systems)
Installation procedure:
1. Before installation, ensure you are logged as an administrator
2. Go to ‘Control Panel’ -> ‘Power Options’ and click on ‘Choose what the power buttons do’ option from the list on the left side of the window
3. Go to ‘Shut-down settings’ on the bottom and disable ‘Turn on fast start-up (recommended)’. Unchecking that checkbox is very important because it will prevent the problem with start-up black screen on the computer.
4. Go to ‘Control Panel’ again and choose ‘Programs and Features’, then click on ‘Turn Windows features on or off’
5. Select the checkbox ‘.NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0) to turn it on and wait until the installation is completed
6. Go to Windows update and install all important updates including those for ‘.NET Framework 3.5 as well
7. Download ATI video driver from the website of your hardware vendor. For Lenovo Thinkpad T60, T60p users the latest ATI video driver is for Windows Vista (32-bit, 64-bit), please visit http://support.lenovo.com/ca/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-t-series-laptops/thinkpad-t60... and download the driver
8. Once you have the driver downloaded right-click on the file and choose ‘Properties’ from the drop-down menu.
9. Click on ‘Compatibility’ card then ‘Change settings for all users’ and check in the checkbox at ‘Compatibility mode’ with the option for Windows Vista as well as at ‘Run this program as an administrator’
10. Double left-click and install the program.
11. Go to the location ‘C:\drivers\WIN\VIDEO and open the file ‘Bin’ (for Windows 8.1 32-bit users) or ‘Bin64’ (for Windows 8.1 64-bit users)
12. Right click on ‘Setup’ file; choose ‘Properties’ from the drop-down menu and repeat the step 9
13. Once you have set the properties, double left-click on that file and install the driver
14. Follow the installation instructions and finish the installation
15. Restart the computer
cheers

Brightness unadjustable for "High Performance" in Switchable Graphics Card Technology

Hello,
I have just transitioned to Windows 7 Professional on my Thinkpad R400(2787-A31)
However, after installing the Thinkpad Switchable Graphics Card driver, i am unable to adjust my brightness if i am using the High Performance mode. My laptop comes with ATi Radeon 3470 and Intel GMA 4500MHD.
I have already installed most of the drivers, and after some testing i realised that it was the switchable graphics driver that cause this problem. Before installation of this driver, i was on the ATi Radeon all the while and i can change the brightness.
I hope some one can help me with this driver issue. My installation of the drivers was from the support page. All except the PCI Simple Communications Controller has their drivers.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Rosemars,
Thank you very much for solving the problem.
The key solution lies with the BIOS update. For people who cannot get the tool to work(mine keep giving an error message), there's an alternativie BIOS update utility at http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-70351
This is for R400 and T400s, for other models please select your model number at the Support page and find the utility.
Cheers & Thumb Up!

I understand that you are looking for help with disabling the more powerful GPU on your notebook.
I did some searching and found a few posts on this matter, by a few of the HP forum experts. Check through these pages:

Creative in the dock over driver issues for older cards and upsetting consumers please read!

To Who this may concern at TOP LEVEL AT Creative's Board It's come to my attention to a very serious issue From Creative,and the story starts from here.
I have just required the Audigy 2 ZS Sound Card so looking to install the latest drivers from CREATIVE'S UK WEBSITE. So I look into the date which is 9/4/200 on Creative's website. However I did abit more investigating into the issues from other consumer's from passed half soaked drivers that Creative are supposed to put right with their half asleep development team(what a joke!!).
AS I did more research? on this issue on the forums and hardware websites, it came across to my attention on a Brazilian I. T. Expert called Daniel Kawakami (surprisesurprise and I don't suppose Creative know anything about him other than trying to kick him the balls for his work to help others with their sound cards very good PR work Creative well done!!!!).So armed with all this information and believe me I have gone into alot of reading in the forums about the issues,and yes Creative Board Of Directors you are entitled to your Copy Rights,for now !!!
So I find out more about this super hero Daniel Kawakami? to Creative's miss givings to put right the Drivers for Consumers let down by Creative, I came across one of the driver updates for the Audigy 2 ZS Sound Card done by Daniel Kawakami, and Bingo most consumer's now have a working drivers by him.
So for all the hard work and precious time this Daniel Kawakami has done for Creative Consumers(including me) YOU SELFISH CREATIVE BOARD OF DIRECTOR'S go and kick him the face, so I will say this to you what about his rights as a creative product consumer? ,his driver copy rights and on top that his right to put things right that your team cannot put right in the first place. This is the EXACT PEOPLE WE NEED IN THIS HIGHLY COMPLICATED IT INDUSTRY, so what do you do you try and do, you bin him.
So Creative I am going to ask some questions and I EXPECT YOU TO ANSWER THEM with me as a CONSUMER OF YOUR PRODUCTS(customer is King not you!!)
1. The drivers you realised on the 9th April 200 are working drivers for the Audigy 2 zs for windows 7 ultimate.
2. So how can you convince me that they are working?
3. At the moment I can only trust Daniel Kawakami's? working drivers, since he has had over whelming praise for his work.What makes me think I can trust you with your drivers.
4. Your Drivers came out on the 9/4/200, Daniel Kawakami's Drivers came out on 9/4/200 its too close a call,since your development Team are too lazy to put things right, how can you convince me that you did not copy his Drivers into your download Driver website(I would not be surprised if you did, as it would certainly be a cost cutting exercise ,and taking away his copy rights for all the work he has done for nothing!!!)
5. Are you going to treat customer and consumers better service and support? in the Future,and that includes me,and 3rd party developers like Daniel Kawakami .
The concussion to all of this, there are lessons to be learned by you Creative for your mis givings and the treatment of customers passed and present and especially the appalling treatment of Daniel Kawakami ,this guy deserves far better for his talent. I Have one message for the President Of Creative ,don't you EVER think you can scare me as a customer and also as Registered? disabled deaf person ,and for that reason I have far more powers you will ever have. For what I have read I am so angry and dismayed when someone like Daniel Kawakami is only trying help others ,but to be treated in this way.
It is only right for me to post this ,because You Creative have hurt? alot people and that includes me. I look forward to the comments and p.m.(if I get any) And Daniel Kawakami? I hope you do read this and all the best for the future ,keep doing what you do ,and once again Creative you should be holding your heads in Shame.
Regards Jonoace U.k.

!!! Creative jamais vai responder.
At seria justo se Creative viesse a publico falar de sua incapacidade e que at onde as placas Audigy funcionariam em Vista e ?7.
Mas por?incompet?ncia, pois nem suas novas placas funcionam direito, se era para vender est? mal.
Problemas de memoria superior a 4 gb e tantos outros que Creative no tem respostas;
Drivers de Daniel e Pax so alternativas, mas que tambm tem muitas limitaes.
Sinceramente acho que esta na hora de Creative vir a publico fazer um relato srio, e descrever claramente as limitaes de sua placas colocando um ponto final emexpectativas frustraes eeng dos.
Chega a ser vergonhoso que placas onboard como realtek funcionem melhor que placas Creative;
Realmente, antes era um sonho e orgulho possuir um produto CREATIVE, tornou-se um pesadelo e uma vergonha.
Mas enfim o que fazer, apenas esperar um momento de honestidade por parte de Creative.
Flavio Kern - Audigy 2 ZS
Creative will never respond. So it would be fair if Creative would publish his inability to speak and that even where the plates Audigy would work in Vista and 7. But by incompetence, since neither her new adapter works right, if it was to sell is poorly. Problems of memory above 4 gb, and so many others that Creative does not have answers; Daniel and Pax Drivers are alternati'ves, but which also has many limitations. I honestly think this time Creative come publico do a serious story, and describe clearly the limitations of your cards by putting an end-point on expectations, frustrations and forgeries. It is shameful that onboard realtek cards like that boards Creative work better; Actually, before it was a dream and pride have a CREATIVE product, became a nightmare and a shame. But anyway what to do, just wait a moment of honesty from Creative.

HP 6600 Scan\Print Driver Issue for Windows 7 Professional 64 bit

Hello,
For some time now I have been unable to scan or print from my desktop (Windows 7 Professional 64bit) and I have exhausted too much effort and am now bringing it to the masses.
The problem:
Printing: Currently receiving an "Error - Offline" message in my printer queue at all times.
Scanning: Scanning has never fully worked on this desktop. I am always unable to communicate with the printer. (Though webscan works through accessing the printers IP address)
Things I have tried:
Ran HPPSDr, followed directions (Unpluged power to printer, turn back on, restart computer) brings me to this website after it cannot fix. (Note that while the HPPSDr is running it always notions that there is a driver problem)
Uninstalled Drivers from CD-ROM, re-installed, countless times
Installed "Windows 7 Pro 64 bit drivers" from the HP website and uninstalled, countless times.
Attempted to set a static IP and use "Update IP Address" to point specifically at the printers IP.
Installed Drivers and finding the printer myself through it's own static IP address.
Turned off firewall and attempted to print (after reboot), same errors
Setting up the printer on all of my laptops (3) wirelessly to attempt to find if there is a problem with the printer or static IP. (1 is Windows VISTA 32bit and the other 2 are Ubuntu 32bit). All laptops are able to use the printer wirelessly without any problems.
Read all of the forums about this issue and attempted all of the 'solutions'. Although I mostly don't see that anyone with this same problem is resolved, unless I'm missing the perfect post.
Things I have not tried:
Plugging the USB directly into the desktop. (This seems self defeating as the purpose for this printer was to be able to print wirelessly to it from across the room)
Re-installed Windows 7 Pro 64bit (Trying to avoid this, would rather just print from laptops)
You tell me
Curiosities:
I have noticed strange things that make me believe the driver is somehow incomptable with my OS. Here is a shot of the properties of the printer:
Weird that it is not recognizing the model number.
Also in the Printer Settings when I go to the port tab, there is no port selected, if I try and tab away it forces me to select a port, yet when I do and 'apply' and then re-open the Printer Settings in the ports tab; it has again unselected the previously selected port.
Theories:
I feel like my OS is just refusing to notice the IP address for the wireless printer, no matter what I have it set to, even if it's dynamic. It's like the driver for Windows 7 Pro 64bit is actually not the correct driver for my system.
Anyways, another thing to mention is that I am not currently willing to wipe my operating system and re-install Windows 7 Pro in order to resolve this just yet. I want to see if anyone else has any other avenues I can try before even beginning to consider that.
Anyways, thanks in advance for taking the time to read my ramblings and hopefully someone who has resolved this issue can help me.

Hi Zerosouls,
I understand you are having an issue with HP 6600 Scan\Print Driver Issue for Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
First try to click the Windows icon, type services in the Search box, and then click or tap View Local Services. Scroll down to the Windows Installer. Startup type should be - Automatic, and Service Status should be - started
Restart the computer after this step and try installing Hp Officejet 6600 again.
Please let me know what happens

Does 10.5.6 Support Dual displays for Radeon 9800 Pro Mac Edition cards?

Does 10.5.6 Support Dual displays for Radeon 9800 Pro Mac Edition cards?
And is there driver updates for anyone using the all-in-ones HP printers...has anyone been able to use their scanners since the update? and has the dual screen support been added to avoid the blue screen on startup?

The ATI Radeon 9600 PC/Mac edition 256 MB should work in the MDD G4. It has two DVI ports (one is dual-link and can support a 30" display). You will need adapters for ADC displays.

Which mac mini should i go for: the one with AMD graphic card or Intel. I meanly going to use it for hometheater and HD movies.

which mac mini should i go for: the one with AMD graphic card or Intel. I meanly going to use this for hometheater and HD movies.

Intel HD 3000 graphics card can easily handle HD movies up to 1080p. But if you are looking at higher resolutions possibly 4k or 8k that are being released this summer in new TV's, I would go with the AMD card. The AMD card would be good for video and picture applications and also games. But if this is strictly to power your 1080p home theater setup then the choice is obviously the Intel HD 3000.

Radeon HD 8750m switchable graphics driver BY HP is not working on Windows 8.1

Hello all,
I have laptop Envy 6-1200el.
It's a good machin but I have always been annoyed by video drivers trouble.
When I bought my PC last year it worked good when we had Windows 8, but the video drivers didn't work properly already there.
The drivers made troubles when I tryed to start some 3D applications as Batman: Arkham Asylum. The problem was the HP video driver. That driver is made by Radeon HD drivers plus Intel HD 4000 series all together.
To make the two video cards working together properly you cannot use intel driver installation first then the AMD catalyst installation utility, but you need a driver installation utility that installs the two video cards both, otherwise the switchable graphics will not work properly and 3D applications won't start.
When I had Windows 8.1 update I had absolutely to find a new driver. I downloaded the automatic utility from AMD site and luckily it downloaded an updated driver that was including and installing together both the video cards properly. Since there my laptop started to work very good in everithing.
Some days ago I had to format my PC and that good video driver got lost.
I installed almost everithing including windows 8.1 update but I sadly discovered that on AMD site it was downloadable only the Radeon HD driver not including any more switchable graphics installation and Intel HD driver.
I have now installed the video driver given by HP on the right laptop portal, but this driver IS SO BAD!!!
HP says that it's an update driver working properly on Windows 8.1 but it's false!
MY PC WITH THAT HP DRIVER IS MAKING MANY TROUBLES:
- 3D GAMES ARE NOT STARTING OR NOT WORKING PROPERLY;
- PASSING THE MOUSE ON THE NEW START BUTTON ON WINDOWS 8.1, THE BUTTON BECOMES BLACK!
- HP UTILITY CENTER IS NOT OPENING;
- HP SUPPORT ASSISTANT IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY;
- THE SYNAPTICS MOUSE DRIVER DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY, THE DOUBLE TOUCH DOESN'T WORK ETC.;
- iNTEL DRIVERS INCLUDED ON THAT HP PACKAGE ARE OLD;
- SWITCHABLE GRAPHICS DOESN'T WORK GOOD AND IS NOT ABLE TO ADDRESS SOME 3D CHARGES TO THE RIGHT CARD.
PLEASE HP RELEASE AN UPDATE! pLEASE MAKE A REAL COMPLETE DRIVER THAT IS REALLY ACTUAL AND IS REALLY WORKING ON WINDOWS 8.1 WITHOUT CONFLICTS, WITHOUT GRAPHICS ERRORS ETC.!!!
THIS SITUATION IS UNACCETTABLE, SOLVE IT PLEASE!

Hi Fotoji,
I want to be honest, it's very disappointing for me to be treated like a child.
You should know that most of the people you meet here in this forum are not n00bs and the causes you suggest to consider haveall already been excluded in every way you would try yourself too!
The fact you say, that the issues are caused by a 'broken OS' are so disappointing and unbelievable!
I work in IT field since I was 14yo and now I am a graduated 28 who knows very well how to handle a PC in a clean and smart way.
Look, many of these issues was already 'on' when I bought and started my PC for the very FIRST TIME.
The video drivers needed are auto-installing drivers containing intel and AMD video drivers both and installed together at the same time.
The first day I had my PC the system was VIRGIN, I simply installed steam then ran 'Batman:Arkham Asylum' to make a try, it has never ran up, no matter if the OS is W8 or W8.1, no matter if the PC is new or used for 6 months, that driver has never worked good.
I tryed many things, used HP recovery manager several times in order to make a clean OS new installation, but it always went like that.
Recently I sent my computer to HP Italy fro an hardisk problem, replaced in warranty. The laptop came back CLEAN, perfect, with W8.1 and all the new recent drivers.
The problem was the same, games did not run or ran badly, the start symbol was black, HP Utility Center didn't work.
So tell me where's the magic when I unistall in a CLEAN AND CORRECT way those video drivers, why EVERITHING COMES TO WORK SO GOOD BACK????
Some months ago I knew that those drivers where so bad so I tryed to download the original driver package from AMD site, hoping that they was including the intel video drivers both, and guess...IT WORKED!
Those drivers was including the intel video drivers too during installation, then after a restart I had NO GRAPHICS ERROR, NO HP UTILITY CENTER FREEZE, ANY GAME OR 3D APPLICATION WORKED AT LEAST 2x FASTER AND NOT ANY COMPATIBILITY PROBLEM IN ANY STATE OR SITUATION.
Unfortunately my laptop started to have maybe some motherboard power problems and my HDD passed away then HP took my pc and fixed it.
When it came back it was perfect again, virgin, with all the update installed, with those bad HP drivers installed again, so with all those problems that I found since I bought it: graphics error, compatibility problems, some programs freeze, all WHITOUT TOUCHING ANYTHING!!!
I knew that I would solve it just downloading the right drivers directly from AMD site but UNLUCKILY THE NEW CATALYST 14.4 DIDN'T INCLUDE THE INTEL VIDEO DRIVER ANY MORE.
I had all those compatibility, stability and graphics problems always with a just-formatted computer with all the updates installed, a virgin untouched machine just formatted completely automatically using HP recovery manager or fixed by your engeneers!!!
The only case everithing worked very good was when I used the original AMD's drivers, when these used to inclued the intel graphics drivers too during AUTO-INSTALLATION.
I am replying now using a just-formatted machine automatically and perfectly just using HPRECOVERY MANAGER,and updated using WINDOWS UPDATE and HP SUPPORT CENTER self updater.
So guess what???? When I uninstall in A CORRECT WAY your HP video drivers (doesn't matter if the new one or the oldest) everything works good back, and when I used original AMD drivers everything worked so good.
It's so hard to do something wrong about it, the driver installation utility are IDIOT-PROOF, you cannot do anything during installation except for clicking the RESTART button.
So AMD used to make perfect drivers and now not any more, sadly, every issue disappears without your driver installed, HP sent me a perfect virgin computer with the same issues.
So please, don't tell me that AMD is able to make better software, don't tell me HP is not able to handle a recovery and sent me a pc with the same issues, don't tell me I probably made a bad use of my VIRGIN laptop after years spent on SGI workstations UNIX based.
I know how to keep a pc clean, and I'm telling you something more: the new synaptics mousepad driver package you are giving from HP website and HP support center DOESN'T WORK GOOD TOO!!!
Once you accept the auto update it starts with the self installation, but after the restart gess what?? The double toe gesture used to simulate the right click doesn't work any more!!!
No matter if you try to change any option in the control panel, no matter if you have windows 8 or 8.1, just try to unistall that and reinstall the old synaptics mouse driver and, OH WOW MAGIC, IT WORKS GOOD BACK AGAIN!!!
So now what?
Are you thinking that HP engeneers who fixed my laptop wasn't able to re-install windows and drivers?
The IT engineers working for HP are maybe also n00bs that can't handle a pc format and send me a BROKEN OS as you said?
I am magically breaking my os system just clicking one time on clean automatic HP recovery button then click on the automatic update buttons twice????
Perhaps AMD is able to make more stable end recent drivers than HP does???
(considering that aven the last HP graphics drivers update is so bad because the intel side of the package is very old and you can recognize it just making a comparison with the new intel additional control panel!)
I don't need to recover the system for the 4th time in a proper way (plus HP fix would be the 5th!), I know these silly things.
I need to be taken seriously and not be treated like a grandmother who's not able to switch-on a smartphone!
I would challenge anyone to operate on my computer and try to solve it using Teamviewer and HP's drivers!
I think I've been quite hard nut hopefully clear, so please do something more than giving me a manual fro grannies.
Thank you.

Radeon HD 6490m Switchable Graphics Problems

Hello.
My notebook has been really sluggish lately, especially when browsing the internet, gaming or photo editing. It started a few weeks ago... never had any problems before. I didn't install any new programs, updates or drivers, so I don't know what caused it.
I did a clean install of Windows 7-64bit last night and got all the drivers from HP support. It was still being sluggish, so I disabled hardware acceleration on Chrome and ie11 and that solved the problem on those two programs.. but the rest is still being slow (even the mouse pointer is lagging). So I'm thinking the problem has to do with the graphics card (?).It's a Radeon HD 6490m (switchable w/ Intel HD Graphics).
I have my power option set to High Performance and the switchable graphics set to High Performance GPU. Are there any other settings I could tweak? Or a compatible driver I could try?
Thanks

Hi @johnw80 ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion dv7-6179us Entertainment Notebook and issues with performance lags. Thank you for all the information about what is happening and what you have done thus far. Something is slowing the Notebook down. Did you install some virus protection or a firewall? If you disable the virus software, are your speeds better.
Here is a document on improving your system.
Try seeing what is active in the task manager, ctrl +alt+ del see what is running.
If that does not help at the end of this document it shows you to do a hardware test. The final thing you should try is to reload the factory BIOS settings.
Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system at the time of purchase. It will make sure all your updates have been completed.
Please let me know.
Thanks.

HP Pavilion dv6-6130eo, Radeon HD 6770M, switchable graphics, update Catalyst Control Center

Computer: HP Pavilion dv6-6130eo
I have installed windows 7 64 bit
Graphics cards: Switchable Intel and Radeon HD 6770M
So far, I have been using the graphics driver provided by HP including Catalyst Control Center, and it has been working fine.
I recently bought a new game: Wolfenstein:New order. I fulfill minimum requirements.
When trying to run the game, I am informed, that my Catalyst Control Center must be 14.4 or newer: Fatal error, and game cannot run.
How can I update my Catalyst Control Center to 14.4 or newer? Both graphics cards (switchable) should be working.
Thanks a lot in advance - This issue is really getting on my nerves!

Windows 8.1 and AMD radeon HD 6700m switchable graphics on HP pavilion dv7

Hello all
First would like to give positive feedback because my former problem was solved here but this thing appears again.
I have HP pavilion dv 7
i7 -2670QM (2.20ghz)
(8 GB Ram)
Windows 8.1
So my problem is with the switchable graphic as it is stated in the subject.
I had windows 7 previously and I had no problems with switchable graphics-
When I bought licenced win 8 the problems started and are continuing in my 8.1 upgrade.
I tried several thing, from turning off switchable mode in BIOS, turn it off in win desktop, uninstalling drivers or blocking drivers and it still doesn't help
It's a shame that with a computer like this I can't play a bit better games that I was able to when I had win7.
The main problem is that when the game instals it checks your computer and tell you if it's ok or not-and everytime I get that I have intel HD3000 graphics. and not AMD radeon hd 6700m graphic card.
Can anybody tells me how to fix this thing? I don't have any problems in display adapter-all drivers are good to go, i have the latest amd catalyst software.
It would be a shame to buy win 8 if 7 was good and better working on this issue.
Thank you for help

Driver update for radeon hd 6770m?

hey HP is there any chance that hp will update the driver of intel HD and ati radeon with switchable graphics? because i really need it
PS:i don't care for intel HD drivers i only need ati radeon

Please uninstall the currently installed Intel Drivers and AMD driver. (if present in Programs and features and device manager).Once all traces are removed, restart the PC and install the Driver file sp52929.exe becase (read the yellow text below) Download Link:ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq//sp52501-53000/sp52929.exe Info:ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq//sp52501-53000/sp52929.html This package provides the AMD High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver and Catalyst
Control Center for supported notebook models that are running a supported
operating system. For notebooks with switchable graphics modes, this package
includes drivers for both graphics processing units (GPUs). Switchable graphics
enable users to switch between a power-saving graphics mode (normally used under
battery power) and a high-performance graphics mode. If high-definition
multimedia interface (HDMI) video output is supported, this package also
installs the HDMI Audio Driver.

Driver issue for Oracle Enterprise Linux

Hi All,
I have just installed Oracle Enterprise Linux. I was not able to access network. After doing lspci -- i found that my ethernet conrtoller : Atheros Communications AR8151 Gigabit Ethernet.
Can any one tell how to install driver for this ?

What is your output of:
<pre>
lsb_release -d
uname -r
</pre>
What kernel driver is in use or loaded regarding your Ethernet card when you check the output of lspci -v"?
Note that Oracle Linux just like any other Red Hat Enterprise Linux is not designed for typical consumer grade Laptops and Desktop systems.
Does your computer vendor provide any driver software for Enterprise Linux? You might be able to find 3rd party driver support using http://elrepo.org/tiki/tiki-index.php as a temporary yum software repository. Probably kmod-atl1 or similar.

Will the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series Graphics card be capable of outputting at 2560x1440?

I currently have a dell studio 15 laptop with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 graphics card, i'm planning to upgrade to an iMac with the same 27 inch display as the one in this forum but i was hoping to continue to use this computer and use the iMacs great display as an external monitor whenever i want to use windows, i was wondering if my graphics card supports such a high resolution or not?
Thanks

Since I'm running Windows 7 Enterprise, I cannot use Windows Update as it is controlled by WSUS. Anyway, after hours of discussing with the IT experts at my workplace, none of them could solve the problem. They even said I can never run my video card again as it is not compatible with Windows 7.
But I didn't give up.
After hours of figuring out a solution, I decided to download and try out the "ThinkPad Switchable Graphics Driver for Windows 7 - ThinkPad R400, T400, T500, W500" and guessed what? It worked! The Catalyst center was also installed. Who knew it was the Switchable Graphics Driver when the ATI card was the only one shown in Device Manager to be not working.
Here's the link:

I hope this works for all of you who had the same problems as me. Cheers!
