Lenovo G510 Graphics Cards Driver Problem

Hi!
I just bought the Lenovo G510 Laptop, with an Radeon 8750, and installed Windows 8 64 Bit.
After installing the drivers from the provided CD, I get the following Bugcheck error code in WhoCrashed
0xA0000001 (0x5, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0)
when rebooting ,or when I try to open the Catalyst Control Center.
Actually the AMD graphics card driver seems to be responsible, as this problem does not occur until I install this driver.
I tried to use the driver provide at the Lenovo support page too (for both Windows 8 and 7), with the same result. The ThinkVantage System Update does not install an AMD graphics driver at all.
Accordding to WhoCrashed atikmdag.sys causes this error.
I would highly appreciate any help!

Hi Aimor,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that the Wireless driver is not getting installed in your G510 Laptop, I suggest you to download a fresh copy of the driver from the below mentioned link and while installing the driver right click on the downloaded file and select “Run as administrator” option to get it installed without any error:
WLAN Driver (Atheros, Broadcom, Realtek) for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit)
Do post us back if the issue still persists.
Best Regards

H520 Graphics Card Upgrade Problem

Hello,
A few days ago, I decided to upgrade the graphics card on my H520 non-slim version. This is a two week old unit with an i3 3240 processor, intregrated graphics, and 6 gigs of ram. I decided on the gtx 650 ti card, paired with a new 600 watt power supply. Upon installation, the computer would not detect the card in any manner. After trouble shooting for hours, e.g., messing with settings in bios, I returned the card and the power supply unit to the place of purchase thinking one of the two was faulty. Unfortunately, I am experiencing the same issue with the new card and psu. Although the fan on the card indicates it is receiving power, the computer does not recognize that anything is installed in the pci express slot. It appears either the pci express slot is faulty, or the motherboard does not support this card. In my opinion, considering that this computer is two weeks old and the nvidia card is widely used, both are unacceptable. Any suggested actions before I return the card for the second and final time?
Thanks

hi JohnJoeWarsh
Welcome to Lenovo Forums!
Im sorry to hear that....
Just to make sure you had the 6 pin connector connected to your Video card right.
Pleasde check this thread about i think the same concern
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-3000-and-Valueline/H520-with-ATI-Radeon-Graphics-card/m-p/1219414...
Here are the Lenovo supported graphic cards for H520
Im not sure if going out of this list for H520 Graphics will work for the Motherboard.

Lenovo 3000 N200 graphic card memory problem

Hello,
Ive recently bought a new Lenovo 3000 N200, which has a onboard graphic card Intel X3100 with 256MB (shareable) memory.
The problem is, it shows, in the Intel media graphic accelerator driver (under information) it has only 128MB.
This is a copy-paste of the info, the graphic driver shows me:
DirectX* Version:        9.0
Physical Memory:        2038 MB
Minimum Graphics Memory:    8 MB
Maximum Graphics Memory:    128 MB
Graphics Memory in Use:    10 MB
So i would like to know, how can i extend this shareable memory (tried in BIOS, but theres nothing there).
Thanks in advance.

Okay, some of you people are using the Intel GMA 950 integrated graphics rather than the Intel X3100 graphics chipset. The GMA 950 is supposedly to have the maximum shared v ram of 224 mb, but this is only accessable only when the ram is paired and also depends on the motherboard chipsetyou are using. This is also true for the Intel x3100 graphics chipset. However, the catch is that the shared vram is not the bottleneck, you can still play WoW if youwith all the graphics setting to low.

Problem with lenovo G570 - graphic card

Hello,i own lenovo G570 and i keep getting this message: Display driver stopped responding and has recovered, every time I start launching any game. So basically I cant play any game right now. I have hd 6370m and i downloaded drivers from official lenovo sites, so whats the problem, please?I really hope someone can help me solve this.

Hi @Lefteris93 ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your I would uninstall all the software and drivers for AMD High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver and Catalyst Control from the control panel and the Device manager. Restart the notebook and download from here.
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. This will help update the drivers that have been installed on the Notebook. If you graphics card was damaged or not functioning you would have a black or blank screen.
Thanks.

Lenovo G500 Graphic card problem

Hello
I have bought brand new Lenovo G500 (Intel(R) Pentium(R) CPU 2020M @ 2.40 GHz 2.40 AMD Radeon HD8570mGHz 8GB Ram) without system in it. I installed Windows 7 Ultimate here, and I cant install graphic card.
I downloaded AMD drivers and when I turn on my notebook again, in manager graphic card is off, because of error 43.
Can I ask for fast reply ? I'm keep fighting with it 2 days in row.

Does the computer feel overly warm when the errors occur? If so the Video Card may be overheating, or have a hardware issue. If your notebook is under warranty - would suggest contacting Lenovo Support directly for service.

Lenovo G500 graphic card driver

Hello everyone!
I recently bought a Ideapad g500 with the following specs:
Intel® CoreTM i7 3632QM
6gb ram
1TB HDD
HD 8570M Radeon
I installed a Win7 64 Bit, but have trouble with the ati radeon card. After hours of trying everything I found on the net (including a similar topic here on lenovo forum) I installed the beta drivers and they were the only ones that got the card installed (the rest ahd trouble even installing CCC) If I right click and go to Switchable Graphics I cannot add another game I want to run and use the card. I can play most games on medium but one in particular works great but game crashes after 1 minute, even though i try to make the radeon card to be used. I installed a GPU meter but its always 0%. I think the radeon card isnt being used even with my setting because it never spikes or anything, and the games are not very high spec (League of Legends, Star Wars Online). I dont know what to do anymore. Switchable graphics is enabled in BIOS. The lenovo graphics driver does not even install CCC. I've even made a fresh Windows install, same problem. Game freezez, makes a horrible sound, I have to restart the laptop. It seems similar like crashes I got from my old laptop when trying games with far larger system needs, so I think the dedicated graphics card isn't used.
Please help me, its ruining my weekend .
Thank you in advance!
Later Edit: the so called "avga110w7.exe" drivers listed on the models driver page here on lenovo does not work correctly.

Hi Reluarea,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that your G500 Laptop is crashing even after installing the graphic driver and selecting the GPU as the default usable hardware. Below is the link to automatically scan the computer and install the latest driver for the computer and a link to check the Game compatibility before playing it:
AMD Driver Autodetect
Game Compatibility Check
Do post us back if the issue still persists.

Msi gt780 graphics card heating up

i installed windows 8 on my laptop the problem i have is that even when im not playing games the temp of the graphics card is 72c laptops is very warm at the bottom and the load is 98% the laptop is very loud. when i have windows 7 on it i didnt have any heating up temperatures. can someone help me out plz. thanks

Have you checked the "Details" tab on the task manager for the CPU usage? (I suppose the "98% load" refer to the CPU, right?) You should see only "System Idle Process" using more than ~5% CPU when idle.
Which laptop is it?
Have you installed/flashed the latest drivers/EC fw/BIOS for w8?
Quote from: Svet on 28-November-13, 14:34:31
72C is low temp for notebook
Yes, but that's strange if the computer isn't running heavy apps like games... Mine is around 35-40°C when idle...

MSI X48C Platinum - Graphic card identification problem

Hi,
I have been having this problem for a long time which I still haven't been able to solve.
When I plug my graphics card to the PCI-E slot 1 (Slot closest to the cpu) I get nothing on my monitor. I have to plug it on to the PCI-E slot 2 (PCI-E 4) to get anything on the monitor. I am running Windows 7 (64bit) Professional.
With this configuration (That is, the graphics card being installed in slot PCI-E4) I am getting a lot of blue screen failures due to graphics card being non-responsive, especially when running graphic intensive programmes.
Here are the details of my PC configuration.
Motherboard - MSI X48C Platinum (MSI MS 7353)
RAM - 6GB DDR3
Processor - Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300 - 2500Mz
BOIS - Version 7.4V
Graphics card - Hightech Radeon HD4870 1GB DDR5
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Cris

Hi go_for,
Thanks for the reply.
I am using a Aerocool 750W (model VP-750)power suppy and the graphics card is connected with 2 PCI-E power connectors from the power supply.
The problem is that it runs on the other pci-e slot not the first one. Could the first slot be defective?
Thanks
Cris

Shockwave player updates: graphics card compatibility problems?

I've recently had a new problem reported to me in the Driveway Visualiser, a piece of Shockwave 3D content that I've been maintaining since we built it in 2008. I'm wondering if recent updates to the Shockwave Plugin (e.g. 11.5.8.612) may be contributing to this...
www.marshalls.co.uk/transform/driveway_visualiser/dv.asp
So I'd be interested to know if anyone else has had any new problems affecting old content. I tried reverting the dcr file to last year's version but the same problem still occurs, so it doesn't seem to be a recently-added bug in my code. I think it could be either a compatibility problem between the graphics card and the plugin, or between the Director 11.0 dcr and the Shockwave 11.5 web player.
Because we need the DirectImage Xtra, it's Windows only. For each different computer that we've tested, the Driveway Visualiser (DV) will either always work or always fail on that machine - regardless of whether IE or Firefox is used. All the test machines have DirectX 9.0c; all are running Win XP SP3 apart from one laptop with SP2 and Intel 965 chipset on which the DV fails. Only one has Director (11.0) installed, and on that the DV always works. The problem is much more common on laptops, so we reckon that Shockwave's ability to interface with the various graphics cards might be the reason why it's not getting the image property of a 3D cast member.
So here's what's actually happening:
When you get to step 4 of the DV, after you've drawn round the shape of your driveway, it tries to grab the image of a 3D cast member referred to by the variable gWorldMember, and fails with the "four parameters expected" error message, on this line of code...
zoomAfterImage.copyPixels(gWorldMember.image, zoomAfterImage.rect, gWorldMember.image.rect)
gWorldMember.image is being returned as <image:0> (not a usuable image) and so its rect property does not exist, hence the crash. This line of code crashes whether or not there's a sprite of the relevant 3D member on the stage at the time. The member's defaultRect has been temporarily changed so we can grab a 1024x1024 image off it. Using copyPixels, this image is resized down to the size of the zoomAfterImage image variable (again 450x450). This gives us an image at the original size of 450x450, but with a softer image quality than if we'd grabbed it from the 3D member at that size.
Is anyone suffering similar problems or aware of what Adobe has been changing in the player? At the moment I just don't see how I can fix this by changing my code...

I had wondered if there was a clash between the Director 11.0 dcr and the Shockwave 11.5 player, so I downloaded the Director 11.5 trial and re-published it using that.
It didn't make any difference, so I'm left with my original suspicion that Shockwave is failing to interface with certain graphics hardware setups via directX, when it tries to read the image property of a 3D cast member.

Lenovo z5070 graphics card issue 'nvidia'

i bought a new laptop .. i have windows 8.1 ... Z5070 - Graphics cards issue (Unable to play heavy graphic games. Nvidia Card) Z5070 with Nvidia Graphic card is having problem when playing high graphic games. The Nvidia graphic card is not detected and it is only using the Intel Graphic card.i install latest updates for everything.what is the problem pllz i want to play games

Hi abdallah650, By default the graphic cards used by computer are switched automatically, depend of application to run. You can check and change this for each application in NVidia Control Panel - 3D settings.
Also you can run each application with right click on it and choose the prefered graphic card. Read this article: switching between Intel and NVidia graphics and here. I hope that will help you.

Graphics card drivers problem with star craft 2!!!! ah!

I have a problem with my new laptop (a Compaq Presario CQ62z-200cto) that I bought for star craft II and I was hoping you guys could help.
This is my computer’s stats. They surpass the recommended settings for Star craft 2 by a little bit.
2.8 ghz phenom dual core
2gs ddr3 ram
Ati radeon mobility hd 545v (yes, this card is better than the recommend 3870)
When I first turned on star craft it said:
“Your video card drivers are out of date” and “Starcraft II does not recognize your graphics card”
In addition to this Starcraft II runs relatively poorly. I’m not sure how well it’s supposed to run, but it’s a laggy even on low-ish settings. I tried to get new drivers from ATI, but they said that if you have a laptop you should get drivers from the manufacturers, not ATI (because HP makes the specific drivers for the computer). ATI supposedly only has “generic” drivers for laptops or something like that. So ,I have to get the latest drivers from hp, which I already have (they were made in April…shesh).
So, I’m stumped it seems like the drivers are holding me back even though I have the hardware for the job, but the drivers I need don’t exist.
Any ideas? Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks,
Tim

The "graphics card" on an iMac is built into the motherboard. Therefore the only updates would be through an Apple firmware update.
