Uninstalling AMD driver

Hi all,
My Macbook Pro 17" (Early 2011) recently got the known issue with the AMD Radeon HD 6750M, weirds columns and lines on screen, to finally freeze for ever.
Getting a replacement is not possible because the cost of motherboard is near the price of a new macbook Pro, but above all it has the same defective AMD card built in, so one can get the problem very soon again.
Two friends of mine have had the same problem (yep, 2011 models, same graphic card), but one of them got luck with a reballing procedure, and it seems that the computer is working Ok for the moment. So I decided to do the same, and the computer is working better now, but sometimes this weird lines appear. The guy at the technical service told me that the amd processor is still working over its regular temperature, so I can expect its death.
I would like to uninstall the AMD driver so I can use the Intel HD 3000 only. At least the computer could be used for email and surfing the web...
I know that there is a little app, called gfx, that has the option to use one or the other, but if you need to reboot the mac, it loads the AMD driver again, and I'm afraid that I'll finally get the same problem, a point where the computer freezes and you are done.
I was looking on the AMD site, but they seem to have uninstall solutions for Windows only.
Any help appreciated.
Best,
Pablo

Can't install AMD driver properly lost all CCC options and 3D

Hi everyone,
I have HP pavilion g6 , win 7 64 bit. Amd Radeon HD 7400M series and Intel HD graphics.
My problem started when my screen was getting black for seconds alot and when it comes back it said amd stopped so I decided to update the driver.
First I downloaded the supported driver from the site
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-98607-2&cc=emea_middle_east...
but every time I try installing it the install process run very quickly the screen doesn't even switch during installtion and it says driver is successfully installed although nothing was installed and nothing absolutely change.
so I decided to download the latest amd driver from amd site14.4. I had some problems while installing but it worked fine and I had all the options including the switchable graphics. But after a while the laptop started to hang on startup showing a blue screen saying something was incompatible.
So I tried to update the driver from device manager and since then I lost all catalyst control center options also the switchable graphics mode and 3D in photoshop isn't working anymore and every time I close the catalyst a message come saying it stopped working. I tried many times to uninstall the driver then installing a new versin 14.9, the prvious 14.4, the supported but still nothing of them worked at all, also I tried installing with win 7 compatibility but it always gets stuck. Sorry for elongation but I'm so tired of this problem. I really appreciate any help.

Hi @Black_violet ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue HP Pavilion g6-1045sx Notebook and issues with graphic software. Here is the drivers for your device. I would uninstall both and restart the computer, then reinstall only the AMD. It will include the Amd Graphics Driver and Catalyst Control Center restart the computer.
The Intel will automatically install.
Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system.
You can do a system restore. System restore will help if something automatically updated and did not go well on the Notebook.
When performing a System restore please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices as they can cause issues.
Please let me know how this goes.
Thanks.

Hello kreem,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand the computer cannot install the latest AMD driver. I'll do my best to assist you! First, I require the following information:
1. What are the exact errors that appear when you try to install the AMD driver?
2. The computer's operating system. If you require assistance locating this information, please reference this website to determine your Windows operating system.
3. Have you installed any new software or drivers on this computer, before the issue appeared?
4. Are you trying to install the driver from HP.com or AMD.com?
Thanks, and have a great day!

K8N Neo2 wierd boot / AMD driver ?

I just put this rig together and am still fiddling with things. After playing with Corecenter and Speedfan and CnQ, and having Corecenter alarm continuously after installing Speedfan, uninstalling Corecenter, wondering if CnQ was working, etc., I ended up installing the AMD driver 1.2.2.2. Things worked okay but when I reinstalled Corecenter it still alarmed continuously (I never could tell why or how to silence the alarm other than closing Corecenter). I decided to uninstall the AMD driver to try to get back to my original configuration. During the reboot after the uninstall the system acted a little funny. Once in the Windows boot the screen went black and then back to the boot screen three times, and then went black and then back on while in the Windows screen before finally settling down. CnQ would not work after this so I re-installed the AMD 1.2.2.2 driver. Everything now works, but the weird boot up still happens with the screen going black several times in the process. Also, when I go to Advanced settings in the Display Properties/Settings the computer seems to hang for several seconds, then the screen goes blank, comes back on and then displays the advanced screens.
BTW, my goal is to have a QUIET computer that will still perform okay for the games my kids play on this machine.
I have a couple of questions related to all this.
1) Is the weird boot up and blank screen when going to the Advanced Display Settings related?
2) Can I uninstall the AMD driver and go back to the Windows driver (that did allow CnQ in the first place)?
3) Finally, I would prefer to ditch Corecenter and use Speedfan. During all this at some point Speedfan displayed info on my video board (voltages, temps) but does not show these now. Is there a secret to getting Speedfan to report the video info?
Thanks for any help or insight you can give. I have spent hours looking over the forums and have learned much!

Well, I think I've sorted most of this out now. The weird boot up (blank screens) seems to have cured itself so I will leave well enough alone. I'm still tinkering with Speedfan, and after perusing a bunch more threads on that, I think I am reporting the graphics card temps.

Hp 4730s amd driver problem

Hy,
I have a HP ProBook 4730s.
I use Win 7 Home Premium x64.
I try to install the amd driver, but I can use only Intel Family video card.
How can I install amd driver? (delete the intel, or something else?)
Which AMD driver is good for my laptop?
Thanks for the answers!
Best Regards,
Miklós

Hi:
What is the full model number of your g7? What operating system?
If it has the radeon 7670M, you only install the AMD driver, which installs the drivers for both the Intel and AMD GPU's..
Never install the standalone Intel graphics driver.
Uninstall all graphics drivers you installed, reboot, and then install the AMD graphics driver only and reboot.

Help please

Hi, and sorry that the uninstaller is having this problem there.
We haven't seen this problem internally, and would like to learn more about it so we can provide you with the best workaround.
Have you already tried using Apple's Disk Utility to repair permissions on that disk? If you haven't already, that's worth doing first before trying the steps below.
Here's one possible solution that could be faster than manual steps:
(1) install at least one qualifying CS6 app, if you have already replaced them all with CC versions. I believe not having a qualifying CS6 app is why your re-install of 4.2 failed earlier.
(2) re-install Adobe Drive 4.2
(3) reboot, and then uninstall Adobe Drive 4.2
In step 1, the qualifying CS6 app (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) can be in trial mode, but you shouldn't even need to launch it after installing it.
Did AD 4.2 uninstall successfully in step 3? If not, we'll dig deeper.

I do not have the Driver folder in this folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support like it says I should and my Apple Iphone appears in Portable Devices only, not in Universal devices. I tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling it. My Iphone is still not recognized by Itunes when I plug it in. I can see my photos in the internal storage folder on my Windows 7 system though. So I know my PC sees the device. The Iphoneis an Iphone 4 with IOS 6 installed. It was working fine until I had to reinstall my Windows system. Now Itunes does not see it. I've uninstalled Itunes and reinstalled it (64bit) to no avail. Where is the Driver folder article TS1538 talks about?

Sorry I missed your post. Anyone else with the same issue should find useful resources at Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.

If i uninstall AMDS, iTunes and all Apple softwares, will all the music i currently have in iTunes delete.., or will it download itself back into the new iTunes?

Under normal circumstances, an uninstall/reinstall does not touch your content. That being said, it's still always a good idea to maintain a backup in case of disasters.

My AMD Driver crashes and recovers almost daily. Is there anyway to stop this?

My laptop is a HP Pavillion g7-2224nr notebook and my driver is the default one, a AMD Radeon HD 7420G Discrete-Class Graphics.
It doesn't bluescreen, but when I'm watching youtube videos, the video will randomly stop and it'll say 'the amd driver has disconnected and successfully reconnected'.
Do you guys have any suggestions to helping me?
Edit: Forgot to add, it's a windows 8.1.

It worked great. I installed it and it hasn't crashed once. I was even able to play one of my favorite games.

How to completely uninstall HP driver if uninstaller option is not available

Please someone can guide me the process of uninstalling HP driver without the uninstaller option. Should I just delete the HP folder inside the Apps folder? I think there is a proper procedure for this....I am having an issue with my HP scanhet G3110, it fails to open the device's session...the first driver was installed from the CD which I should have not done it. That might be the reason why I am having this problem, no option for uninstallation and have tried already overiding the old driver with the latest driver but there's no option for uninstalling it.

Thanks SparklesJen1,
The uninstaller won't run because of the missing plugins. Uninstaller.plugin and other plugins. I did accidentally installed the driver intended for 10.5 OS on my macpro mid 2010 running Lion which I should not have done. Since I can not uninstall it, I tried using CleanApp. Then Installed the driver intended for Lion then update with the later OS then the patch update, but still scanner won't open. My hp scanner works perfectly with the bootcamp and with my macbookpro mid 2012 because i did not install the driver from the CD. Now I got the Uninstaller option back after the installation of the later driver but still the problem is I am getting the error saying Uninstaller.plugin, UninstallSelectDevice.plugin, UninstallProress.plugin, UninstallCleanup.plugin, Summary.plugin, are missing but when I tried to show the package content of the Uninstaller, those plugins are available inside the plugin folder.

How to completely uninstall Airport driver

Greetings;
I regularly visit a customer site where wireless devices are forbidden because they manufacture and test wireless equipment. They are very strict about it and in the past when I've visited they would completely uninstall my PC laptop's wireless driver before they would allow me to bring it into their facility.
I went back to their site and they didn't know how to 'uninstall' the driver on my MBP so they wouldn't allow it on campus.
I did some research/Googleing and haven't come up with anything. Does anyone know how to completely remove the Airport driver? And perhaps more importantly to me personally, how to re-install it after I leave the customer?
Thanks in advance.

I presume you only take the computer in for your own security. Why not leave it with your mobile phone, iPod, etc? I would think these other devices are also banned and that no employee is allowed those either.
My mind actually boggles at the implications if they are truly serious about this!
If of course your computer contains whatever it is that you are trying to sell make hard copies & carry them in or burn cd's/dvd's in a format they can run on their own computers. You could use memory sticks too.
