Have an HP Pavilion DV7 with Radeon HD6490M Graphics Card. Photoshop doesn't recognize it.

Photoshop CC doesn't recognize my other video card, which is a Radeon HD6490M. Can't utilize 3D tools. Is there something wrong with this particular video card that won't allow it to be recognized?

Here's one idea although it is for a DV6.
First off, reboot and press F10 to go into your BIOS.
Switch the Graphics settings from "dynamic" to "fixed". This will ensure that your computer will not use the default Intel card. I'm not sure why, but it seems as though Rage kept using that card regardless of my settings in Windows.

HP Pavilion dv7-6070ca recovered no graphic card driver?

Hello,
I had my hard drive tank on me and replaced it recently. I re-installed windows with my backup DVD but once it came online I found that not a single driver installed on the computer. That wasn't a huge deal as I went on to the website and download all of them via a different computer so now all is working EXCEPT my AMD graphic which should be:
Radeon™ HD 6770M Graphics with 1024MB GDDR5 and up to 4837MB
total graphics memory
I have tried to uninstall the driver and reinstall it but I keep getting an error message...which I can't seem to replicate at the moment to copy into this post but it has something to do with my driver not being up-to-date which I think is a Catch22 since I'm trying to install it period.
Can anyone suggest another idea? I'm still trying to do some additional attempts...one is to find that exact graphic card on AMDs site and see if I can find a driver more successfully.

It is really odd that using your Recovery Discs did not install the drivers. Normally a recovery puts everything back just as shipped. Maybe your set is incomplete or something. You can order Recovery Media for around $16. The option to order is in your drivers/software list.

I have a HP Pavilion dv7-1444 running Windows Vista 64 bit. I have lost all sound. There's a red x next to the speakeer icon on the bottom right of the screen. I have reloaded drivers, checked Device Manager, tested sounds, HP Support Assistant says I have the latest BIOS installed. I tried a one prong earphone in the two prong headset and got no sound. The mute button and the volume slider don't work either.
Please help me if you can.

Hey Sam55555,
I see that you're having an issue with the webcam.
Could you provide me with a model and product number of your notebook.
So that I may look into this further to try and provide you with more helpful instructions.
Also, this Document should help you out. If it doesn't let me know the full model name and i will find a document for your notebook.
What i consider doing is the section that says "Reinstalling the original webcam program that came with your computer".

Help installing AMD Radeon 8490 graphic card on HP Pavilion P7-1110

Appreciate any help on this that anyone can give. I'm at a loss at the moment. Just got an AMD Radeon 8490 graphics card to put into the HP Pavilion p7-1110 desktop. I have not opened up the back of a computer for probably ten years (used to do it, but haven't for a long time). The card I got was new, but pulled from a workstation before going out, and came with no disk or documentation.
I tried just opening up the back, and putting the card in the PCI-16 slot, but when I restarted the computer, the computer did not recognize either the old integrated graphic card or the new one. When I pulled the card back out, it recognized the old integrated card.
From what I've been reading, there's a suggestion that I uninstall the Intel Integrated graphics driver before trying the install again, then plugging in the new card, turning the power back on and letting Windows 7 choose the drivers necessary for the new card, then it might work.
But what if it doesn't. Then I don't have the drivers for the old and it's gotten me nervous that I'll be without any graphics at all and unable to use the computer.
Any suggestions? Don't know why this has me this nervous, but I guess it's that lag time between dealing with a motherboard.
Appreciate any assistance, guys.
Nervous in PA.

Hi,
I see two possibilities.
The AMD 8490 is not compatible with your PC.
The 250 watt power supply in your PC is insufficient.
Try clearing the CMOS and see if that helps. If not, then try the BIOS update that is posted for your PC.

Sounds just like what was happening with my Alum MB. I took it in and they replaced my battery. It seems to be ok now. I don't know what it is, but my battery was fine before 10.5.6 and the same timeframe of the firmware updates when they came out.
My battery health was jumping around but was fine before all of this happened. Unfortunately at 381 cycles I don't think you have much chance of getting the battery for free. Perhaps you can complain about the battery saying it was fine until 10.5.6 or whatever. Not sure when your computer was made, but perhaps you are eligible for this program: http://www.apple.com/support/macbook_macbookpro/batteryupdate/

Like you mentioned, she bought it from the Vodafone store and most likely the phone is locked to Vodafone. But, in your case since you are using the same carrier's SIM card (Vodafone), "unlocking the phone" is not an issue. Aside from that "phone unlocking" is ONLY done by the carrier and Vodafone NZ doesn't offer unlocking. (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937)
As you have already tried restoring the phone (which technically wasn't required) and SIM change, your best option is to take the phone to Vodafone store and ask them to activate it for you.

Firefox won't redraw on analog monitor driven by Radeon 4350 graphics card

I'm running two XP SP3 on a reasonably current desktop with 4 GB and an ASUS Radeon 4350 graphics card with 512MB. The card drives two Samsung SyncMaster 2443 monitors, one from analog RGB port, the other from a DVI port. I've been using Firefox since v.3, but sometime around v.8 or v.9, it began to have problems when ever I had a Firefox window open on the analog video port. (I'm current with v.27.0.1)
The window 'appeared' to freeze - clicks, scrolling and the like failed to produce a re-drawing of the window's content. However, if I dragged the window over to the other monitor running off the DVI port, the Firefox window would re-draw itself with the new content. This behaviour told me two things. On the analog port the Firefox window was still alive, and responding to keyboard and mouse inputs, but not displaying the results. Secondly, the problem was related to the Firefox - RGB interface. Oh! I forgot to mention: Firefox was the only application exhibiting this behaviour.
A support session with ASUS produced no solution. After searching several related Mozilla support issues, on a problem closely related to mine someone suggested turning off the hardware accelerator, and re-starting Firefox (Tools > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"), which I did. Poof! Problem solved, case closed. Except, Why?
Is this just because of my hardware setup? Or Firefox - I generally have 6 to 10 windows open at a time, some with several dozen tabs (I'm a software architect, so tend to keep a lot of context on the desktop). I'm glad I can scroll Firefox now on my other monitor, and click buttons and be able to read the response, but I think there's a defect here somewhere...

I think it has something to do with the acceleration compatibility of many type of graphics cards.
"Unfortunately, due to the wide range of possible driver, video card and operating system combinations, hardware acceleration or 3D web graphics (WebGL) may still not work for you in Firefox. In these instances you fix the problems by disabling hardware acceleration and WebGL. "

Help with installing new graphics card

Hi I have a 3 year old hpe575a (hp pavillion)
Intel i7 2600, 8gb ram
Orginally had a ati hd radeon 2gb (not sure what model)
in it
after 2 years the radeon finally melted ( always had overheating problems in the australian summer )
so I bought a nvidia gtx630m which had the same connections and power requirements and connections as the radeon
I csnt seem to get it working, despite the card powering up, and loading the splash screen it doesnt go any further, I can get to the network boot screen or the hp splash screen but no further, and I cant find any bios updates for my mptherboard (pegatron) so do I need a new motherboard? The computer works 100% fine without the new graphics card
Should I get a new motherboard. Or graphics card? which would be cheaper? or is there someway to get the current system to work with the new graphics card? thanks -zac

Hi,
The existing card is an "AMD Radeon HD6570 (2 GB)". I don't know how you can fit a Nvidia GTX630M to your machine because this card is for laptop:
     http://www.geforce.com/hardware/notebook-gpus/geforce-gt-630m/specifications
Probably you are talking about the following card:
    http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gt-630/specifications
The card should be able to use 300W PSU on your machine (no need new PSU). My suggestion:
(a) Update BIOS to the latest one, please check, should be "Version7.15 Rev. A" the motherboard is Cleveland
     http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=cp-101150-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
(b) Install driver for new card
Hope this helps.

ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 graphics card Windows 8 driver missing

I just installed Windows 8 Enterprise Trial version on HP nx9420 laptop (2GHz dual core prosessor, 4gb memory, ATI Motility Radeon X1600 graphics card with 256mb own memory, 1680x1050 native display resolution) on second partition, side by side with existing
Windows 7.
Installation succeeded perfect, except Windows 8 couldn't install, nor did find from Windows Update display driver for ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 graphics card. Only Microsoft generic display driver was installed and it offered maximum 1450x800 resolution,
so not laptops native 1680x1050 screen resolution.
Windows 7 can install working ATI driver right from Windows Update for that graphics card (version 8.561.0.0 dated 1.12.2008).
Laptop manufacturer HP has latest, old driver for Vista (version 8.453.0.0 dated 22.1.2008), so I installed that, selecting compatibility mode Vista with setup-program in Windows 8. That installed, but seems to have some problems, telling of missing library,
maybe with some ATI extra diplay manager software and C++ 2005 library, that it installed.
MY QUESTION: Is there some problems with Windows 8 and that ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 graphics card? Why isn't the Windows 7 -version of ATI mobility radeon X1600 display driver available in Windows Update for Windows 8 too?

Thank you all of your thanks.
I can confirm that this solution works with Windows 10 Technology/Insider preview too. And surely works with forthcoming Windows RTM too.
Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 TP work both like a charm with nearly 10 years old HP Compaq nx9420 laptop, with Intel Core 2 Duo and ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 display adapter. Nice co-operation of "old" hardware and very Modern Windows OS.
So in brief:
If you have laptop with ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 or other X1000-series display adapter and
you want to install Windows 8, 8.1 or 10, do this:
0) First just install Windows 8.x/10. It will install Microsoft Generic display driver, but that doesn't support full resolution of ATI Mobility Radeon X1000 -series - for example it may show maximum 1400x1050 -resolution, thus your laptop display and Radeon
X1000 may support native 1650x1050, but you can't obtain that resolution with that Microsoft generic driver. So you need ATI-driver and you can get it this way:
1) With Internet Explorer (this doesn't work with other browsers) go to
Microsoft Update -catalog: http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/
2) Search "ATI Mobility Radeon X1600"
(or X1300, X1800 etc)
3) Sort search results by date (last update -column), latest on top. You will see drivers for Windows 7
- they will work with Windows 8.x and 10 too. There is certainly two of them; other is 32 bit only and other is 64 bit dirver.
4) Select proper driver version of them, according your Windows 32 or 64 bit, so click Add
5) At top-right click Show basket and then download those driver packages to your computer. They are cab-file
-packages.
6) Obtain 7-zip -utility, install it and with it unpack that cab-driver package on folder with its package-name.
7) On start of taskbar, right mouse button click Windows-Start and then select Hardware management. On
Hardware management -window open Display adapter -section, then mouse right click Microsoft adapter and select Update driver. Then on next window, select search driver from computer.
8) Browse on folder, where you unpacked ATI driver (on stage 6 earlier) and select Next ... that updates
driver, on the go and you don't need even to reboot Windows.
9) Now you have proper ATI Mobility Radeon -driver in use. It surely sets automatically resolution
according your laptop screen (so recommended native resolution of screen panel) or you can select that on diplay settings.
Extra: For that Windows 8.x/10 boot works fine too, do this too:
Seems that Windows 8.x (and Windows 10 too), with their hybrid-shutdown -functionality, require some support of the display adapter, that ATI Radeon Mobility x1000 -series don't have.
So the solution is to disable that Windows 8.x (or Windows 10) hybrid boot -functionality (that is quicker boot) and to use "normal boot".
You can fix that this way:
- at end of Taskbar click battery/power icon and select Power settings
- navigate to power and sleep settings
- either at bottom of those settings, or in Win10 more power settings, select power buttons functionality/settings (so what power button, sleep button or closing laptop screen does)
- at bottom of those settings is shutdown options (or with similar name). uncheck "use quick boot" -settings (for to uncheck that you may need to click first upper "changing disabled settings" (or similar name) at top or windows)
(I recommend to check Hibernate at the same time too, because that is usefull)
- then Save settings and reboot Windows and you have got rid of that problem that Windows 8.x/10 don't show Lock screen, now it does.
Boot takes just a little longer, so practically no problem. And if you need quicker boot with laptop, use Hibernate-state, so don't shut down your laptop, but instead put it into Hibernate-state (that is better than Sleep mode, because Hibernate-mode doesn't
consume battery-power, like Sleep-mode does)

Driver upgrade for AMD Radeon 5770 Graphics Card

I have a 2008 Mac Pro, running OSX 10.8.5. Just installed AMD Radeon 5770 graphics card (Apple says this isn't supported; users I read said it works despite what Apple says in knowledge article (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3477). When I restarted, the system said my card was a Radeon HD 5000, not 5770. AMD's web site not clear about driver upgrade (and I believe I have to do this, since I took out the old graphics card (ATI Radeon HD 2600 that came with the Mac Pro at purchase). Didn't get a clear answer, yet, from Apple support. Anyone experience this? Does anyone know which driver to manually download from AMD's site? It's not clear, and they also suggested, talk to Apple to get driver support. Here's where I went, and found the choice not clearly mapped out for the Mac (and their autodetect software works only for XP:

The fastest way (which will take a while) is to:
1) Make sure you have an up to date backup with time machine.
2) Boot from your Leopard install disc or disc that came with your computer.
3) When choosing an install method you can choose an archive and install or erase and install.
4) After the OS is installed it will ask you if you want to restore files from another drive, partition, mac or time machine.
5) Choose time machine and get your files restored.
6) Once the mac is started up.
7) Go here http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1054comboupdate.html and download the 10.5.4 combo update.
8)You then need to use software update to install all of the updates that came after 10.5. UNCHECK the 10.5.5 Combo Update. You can even select to ignore that update by checking the box next to so that it is selected and then selecting ignore update from the update menu in the menu bar.
I have not tried using Time Machine to go back an OS version. I will experiment with that.
I can also tell you how to clone your drive to another drive using the same DVD as above and two hard drives.
I hope this helps.
