Fresh windows 7 install for u400 wont take AMD graphics drivers

So I did a fresh install of windows 7 and I stupidly deleted the D: partitions which included the drivers. So now i resort to getting my drivers from the consumersupport website and it's giving me trouble. 
Whenever i download the amd drivers and i restart for the drivers to take effect, i get BSOD. All the other drivers and even hot fixes work perfectly, it's just there is an incompatibility with the amd driver, according to customer service.
Any one had the same issue? if so, where did you download ur drivers to fix this issue?
In my opinion, it has something to do with switchable graphics... I don't know if it's possible, but i think i'm installing the driver software onto the intel onboard graphics.
Any help would be appreciated.

I had the same problem, and after a day of reloading windows 7 Ultimate and drivers in a different order, I decided to just do a "custom" install, and only install the "video card driver" option, and unchecked everything else.  After loading the rest of the drivers from the Lenovo Support site, everything works perfectly...and this was after I installed a 512GB Samsung SSD.  So, long story short, just do a custom install of the AMD driver, and just load the video card driver...not the CCC.

  • [Serious BUG] Youtube crashes to death; fresh Windows 7 install; firefox and plugins updated; plugin-container.exe disabled; noway

    This happens to me and to two friends of mine. So it's hardly a coincidence.
    I have done a fresh Windows 7 install (for other reasons) so I thought this problem (which I had since about version 8.0) would disappear. I was wrong.
    Firefox and plugins are updated:
    Firefox 13.0
    Shockwave Flash 11.3 r300
    GPU video drivers are also updated.
    I came across the "plugin-container.exe solution" but it didn't solve the problem.
    How to reproduce the bug.
    Visit Youtube and click on some video. Minimize Firefox. Wait some seconds. Next time you restore the window Firefox crashes, you have to kill plugin-container.exe from the task manager OR you have to restart the entire browser in case you've disabled the plugin container.
    The same bug should occur when having various tabs open and one of them is Youtube with a video playing. But also when Firefox has no focus and you have other windows on top of it (and a Flash video running or even paused).
    Since this does happen:
    -with a fresh install;
    -with everything updated;
    -even disabling the plugin controller;
    it seems very very strange to me that this problem is STILL present since version 8.0 (or even before) and that there is so few reports of this bug around the internet.
    I'm not complaining here, I'm just showing my perplexity about almost noone having this bug which is ruining my (and my friends') Firefox experience since the past years.
    My purpose here is:
    * to let you know about this problem;
    * to know if other are experiencing it;
    * hopefully to keep giving support to this thread and answer to your questions about this bug so to help this thing being fixed;

    For problems that occurred with Flash 11.2 and earlier, you might want to consider disabling graphics hardware acceleration in both Flash and Firefox.
    '''Flash'''
    Right-click any video in Flash Player and choose Settings.
    Clear the checkbox for "Enable hardware acceleration"
    '''Firefox'''
    Save all work (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    Restart Firefox.

  • G50-45 Can't Install AMD Graphic Drivers

    Hello,
    I just bought this laptop and I downloaded the updated drivers from Lenovo site, but I can't install AMD graphic drivers.
    The screen went black during installation and stayed black for almost 40 minutes (then I rebooted the laptop).
    So I tried to download AMD drivers through their Autodetect software, and during the installation the screen showed weird colors, mostly green but in a "old fashioned 8 bit way" we can say.
    What should I do?
    Also, I can't use the dedicated graphic card (Radeon HD 8500M): the laptop keep using the integrated card, which makes every game running slowly. I already tried to set which card an application must use through Catalyst Control Panel, but it doesn't work.
    Thanks for the replies.

    I used one from lenovo page and they work.

    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.

  • Toshoba Soft for Fresh windows Vista install

    Hi, I am thinking of reinstalling Windows Vista Home Premium fresh on my laptop.
    If I wipe the whole HD and install windows Vista or full Win 7 on it, is there a Toshiba Software bundle that I candownload for Satellite, essential for the laptop functions to run?
    I have recovery Disks, problem is I downloaded Vista to Win 7 updater and Ran it , I thought all update was going to be doe online.Until it asked me to pop in Win7 update disk....which is nowhere mentioned until that point.
    I reverted back to latest sys-restore, but certain applications are broken and not repairable, also messed up sounds and Video jitter freezes time to time.
    (Not on website nor during updater that YOU NEED A WIN 7 DISK TO COMPLETE THE UPGRADE. Would it be so hard to mention it somewhere? Anyways that's another story which happened a while ago.)

  • Fresh Windows 10 install on a windows 7 system

    First, my system specifications:
    CPU: i7-920
    Memory: 6GB Ram
    Storage: 320GB drive, 750GB Drive, 2TB drive, 120GB SSD drive, 250GB SSD Drive
    Video: Nvidia 670 GTX
    I've been running windows 7 since 2008 or 2009 when i built this PC.  I've installed windows 7 at that point, and up to now, couldn't be bothered to reinstall windows at all.  At this point, C:\ is running out of space with loads of programs I've
    installed and stopped using.
    Long story short,  when windows 10 officially comes out, i want to upgrade to windows 10, without upgrading windows 7.  I do not want to bring all that mess over into windows 10.  I would rather just install windows 10 on a new drive, and
    format the 320GB drive. Last week, my wife surprised me with a 250GB SSD drive for my birthday, which i installed windows 10 preview onto.
    I did find an issue that is still driving me up the wall.  Normally, by default in windows 7, Drive C is an aging 320GB seagate drive, D is a 750GB seagate, E is a 2TB WD, F is a 128GB SSD drive, and G is where my new SSD drive is located.  The
    issue i came up with, is a permission error to access my data on all of those drives.  After installing windows 10 onto G:, i copied some files over (kee-pass2 data file, steam installer, nvidia graphics driver, a text file with my mIRC registration code)
    so that i could get a new system up and running.
    The problem I got was when i booted into windows 10, and tried to start or open any of these files, i was denied permission to open any of these files, including the text file with the mIRC registration code.  I've right clicked on these files, went
    into security and added myself as the owner of these files, and am still being denied access to these files.  If I downloaded the drivers and the steam installer, they started fine.  The kee-pass2 software couldn't load the database at all, even
    when i went to the windows 7 location and loaded the original file.
    Steam could not access any of my steam installs on E:\, claiming a permission error.  When i tried to go into my steam directory on e:\ windows reported that i still do not have permission to access the file, and seemed to give me the option to take
    ownership.  
    To date, it's still claiming I don't have permission to access any of these files.  I've even tried making a local login with the exact same account name as on windows 7, with administrator's access, and am still being denied permission to access these
    files.
    At this point, I'm feeling an impending sense of doom, and am currently believing that my idea of installing windows 10 without upgrading from windows 7 directly is not going to work.   The only way I can currently think of to resolve this issue is
    to reformat all of my drives once I get windows 10 installed, and reinstall whatever games i want back from steam once I'm set up in windows 10.
    Is there something I'm missing here?  Is there any thing I can do without taking such a drastic action?  Can I even upgrade to windows 10 for free in the way I want to upgrade?

    I hate to say it but you seem to be making this harder on yourself. Reduce the problem to it's simplest form, you want to move data from one volume to another volume and it's giving a permissions error.
    The first thing to eliminate is any form of disk protection such as Bitlocker or some sort of TPM implementation. Assuming you definitely don't use anything like that...
    The next thing to do is dismount (or physically disconnect in this case) all volumes except the relevant pair, boot from the Win 10 volume and then try to access the information on the "data" volume. If this does not work then reporting back the
    exact error would be beneficial. A screenshot of the Disk Management interface would also be very useful. Right-click the start menu for a shortcut to the snap-in.
    Finally almost all applications (including Steam games) are best reinstalled fully upon completion of the OS install. The installation process for almost every game includes third party libraries, registry entries and so on that will be missing from the
    new OS. Indeed Steam itself can give problems when "importing" a library through physical copy and repair. It's possible, but not advisable.
    Moving data isn't the issue.  Reading existing data in it's current location is the issue.  This is occurring even after I renamed the system to be the same as the windows 7 system, and using the same user name and password.
    I suppose it's some feature of the NTFS system to keep people from maliciously accessing a "secured" filesystem that they don't really have access to.  The problem with this case is, it's my data and i'm sort of being prevented from doing
    so.  
    To date, I have been able to get Windows 10 to read some directories after clicking a button to give me that access, and go eat dinner or watch a tv episode.  The issue is that it won't let me into my windows 7 user directory, even after spending an
    hour going through my directory.  The only thing I can do is open an admin command prompt and manually xcopy what i want to access.  The other issue is that it appears to randomly forget that it managed to 'convert' some of the directories, and needs
    to do it again.. and again.. and again.

  • Lenovo W540 FRESH Windows 7 Install

    Hi, Im trying to install fresh Windows 7 x64 (Volume License media) to my company W540.Windows 7 Installation does not find any hdd and install stops here.I have tried drivers from lenovo site and directly from Intel site (Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver) and Lenovo CSSM driver back drivers but no success. Installaton suggest Chipset 8 ACHI Drivers as it should? but still it does not find any hard disks.Bios is updated to latest version (V.2.21). (Still no "legacy mode available for SATA in bios). Suggestions or knowledge? Regars!  

    One thing you could do is to temporarily put the hdd into a different machine and perform the first step of installation (file copying) there. Then put the hdd back into your w540 for the rest of the install process. I used this method to fresh install Win7 from a DVD onto my W550s, which lacks a DVD drive.

  • Fresh Windows 7 install on Satellite C75D-B7200

    Hey Toshiba Forums,  My laptop, the C75D-B7200 recently had some HDD hardware problems so I got a new one and decided to put windows 7 64 bit on it.  After the installation process was finished and I logged in, I couldn't connect to the internet.  This was the case with the ethernet cord as well. I went to the Device Manager and saw that these drivers were listed under "Other devices" and had a error which was labeled "code 28".   I then attempt to download the appropriate drivers but found no luck as the only downloadable options under windows 7 64 bit have nothing to do with the drivers i'm having trouble with.  Anyone know what I should do?

     
    Satellite C75D-B7200 (PSCLEU-006004)
    Local downloads here.
    Toshiba does not supply Windows 7 drivers and utilities for that model. You're best off restoring it to factory new.
    But if you want to fool around (and probably waste lots of time), there do seem to be drivers for your part-number family PSCLEU here. The order of installation is important. You should install the AMD SM Bus and display driver first. I would install the remainder of the AMD drivers after that and prior to other drivers.

  • Fresh Windows Vista Install (X:/ drive)

    I have a HP Pavilion Elite m9500Y and I wish to use a windows vista install DVD rather then the recovery DVD's/partition.
    When ever I boot to disk and go through the reinstall process, when I get to select drive it only has X:/ drive available.
    Is this some type of boot drive? Is it because of something RAID related? I would like to know how to get around this.

    Hello ddwcmp555, I'm not quite sure why you do not see any available disk\partitions to install Vista on.
    Here  is the link for the specifications for your system, and it shows the system shipped with a 750 GB hard drive and no Raid Array. It also shows the system shipped with Windows Vista Home Premium with Windows Media Center (64-bit) with Vista Service Pack 1.
    The X: partition is created during the start of the Vista installation, as a temp. partition to store the Vista setup files. When the setup completes successfullly, this X: partition is removed.
    Can you advise where you acquired the Vista DVD, and if your Vista DVD might be an upgrade version rather than a full version. An upgrade version would look for the original operating system, before proceeding with the installation process.

  • Moving to Fresh Windows OS Install on Server with Same Name

    We have been having a ton of stability problem that all seem to point to the OS or Disk sub-system. The server guys want to to reinstall the Windows OS on the Server that has the DB, Admin and CCM nodes. The OS is on its owen drive and none of the Oracle files will be effected and the server will have the same name/IP Address.
    I am thinking that I would just have to run Autoconfig for the DB Tier and for the Apps Tier. Or should I run adcfgclone.pl dbTier and appsTier?

    Chris,
    If you are going to do a fresh OS installation, then you would need to do the following:
    - Run preclone on the database/application tier nodes
    - Take a backup of the database/application files
    - Install a fresh OS
    - Install all pre-req. software (MKS, Cygwin, VC++, ..etc)
    - Restore the database/application files
    - Run postclone on the database/appication tier nodes
    If you are going to reinstall the OS, then you would need to take a backup and relink all executable files. Running AutoConfig in both cases once you are done would be a good idea.

  • Fresh Windows 7 Install

    I have a new T510 laptop and, although it seems like it should be fast on paper, I'm not really impressed with the "out of the box" Windows 7 performance (it's running Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit). Boot time and loading the desktop are particularly unimpressive; I have seen lower-spec'd machines that boot/load the desktop faster.
    Usually, whenever I get a new laptop, the first thing I do is wipe the pre-installed OS and put a fresh-install of the OS on. Of course, there is no Windows installation media with this machine, although I'm aware that I can create recovery DVDs.
    Is it possible to do a fresh/OEM install of Windows 7 (using the license I paid for when I bought the machine) from the recovery volume? If not, what are my options? I have Windows 7 installation from MSDNAA, but I'm guessing the key wouldn't work with that.
    Thanks.

    Hi, you are right, MSDN installation media will not work with Product key on your Lenovo laptop. I have used clean Winodws 7 fro MSDN as well (but if you have MSDN, you must have product keys my friend, so what is the problem???) and after half year i have returned to standard preinstalled OS from hidden partition. There are some for me not necessary apps and utils preinstalled, so i have uninstalled them and honestly, there is no big differenc ein boot time. Keep in mind, you have to install some applications anyway, nobody use just clean Windows OS. After several months of usage you will find, there is no difference. And honestly, several secondsa in boot time make no sense, important is overall performance during work. And there is absolutely no difference. Thats my experience. Its only psychological effect more or less.

  • Skype freezes after fresh windows 7 install on new...

    Hello, ever since I freshly installed win 7 on a new ssd, I've had issues with Skype. The program consistently freezes when I'm typing a chat message. On top of this, the people I skype have said that my audio will lag out when I'm talking with them; I've noticed the program being unresponsive at those times.
    Anyway, I've gone through the forums trying every solution I could find (e.g. fresh skype install, giving firewall perms, uninstalling messenger plus etc.), and I haven't been able to correct the problem. Sfc scannow has also returned no errors.
    I've attached the dxdiag report.

    Alright, the issue has been finally corrected. Skype no longer crashes randomly at launch, my friends can finally understand what I'm saying, and chat doesn't freeze. 
    What I did to correct the issue since the last update:
    - reinstall java
    - reset ie 11 settings
    - moved usb ps3eye cam to different usb port
    Apparently my usb port is messed up... which is weird since it was fine before the fresh intall of win 7.
