Win7 Lenovo G570 - May29,13 AMD driver problem

Trying to install the late May 29, 13 drivers on my lenovo g570 laptop. Win7-64 bit AMD HD6370M
Removed all trails and scents of my earlier drivers prior to intalling
Problems:
- the install goes through suspiciously fast and does not actually install ANYthing. After rebooting, the display drivers are still shown as vga.dll etc not atioxxx-something. dll
Have tried re-downloading should it have been a corrupt download, followed through the same procedure - nothing changes.
The problems occur with this particular package, earlier installs work fine, BUT...I wouldn't be asking about it if I didn't want to install the new ones, would I?
What to do?
Thanks

Hi
Iv'e not seen this happening in the Y560 which also runs an AMD . If you dont have a particular reason of installing only 11.10 I would suggest you could try the older versions especially the LTS ones.. The Unity interface sucks IMO
Cheers and regards,

G570 with AMD graphics problem

Hello
I have a problem with my Lenovo G570 laptop with AMD HD 6730M graphics card. There were some problems with it almost from begining, but bearable so I managed to live with it (some BSODs during games, or just from nothing and screen turning black). I have never found the answer for those, so I was just installing latest graphics drivers from AMD site (those on Lenovo site I have never managed to finish installation). And those new driver was quiet good, they havent stop BSODs but when screen disappeared, they was able to restore it without computer reset, so i worked with them through about 2 years. But now after one BSOD my laptop screen couldnt turn on when I started laptop ;/ but system was working. So I used external monitor to see whats happening and after loading Windows 7 there was always BSOD, also some strange vertical red signs showed on the screen (like plenty of red letters "S" or "C"). BSODs was usually coused by atikmpag.sys file so I went to emergency mode and uninstalled GPU drivers which seemed to solve the problem, couse laptop screen came back and Win7 started on normal mode, then I installed drivers back. It was working about 2 weeks and then crashed again and latest solution wasnt working this time. I tried also disc C format and installing old drivers from Lenovo site but with no satisfying results. I managed to wake up the screen by holding starting button 30sec with no energy source, then turning on with AC adapter, but with drivers installed there are still BSODs on wn7 start, but sometimes win7 starts and then GPU keeps reseting with strange screen defects. There was also some starts when win7 was working perfectly but after turning off it crashed again.
I know that this problem is quite complicated, but it has moments when works totally normal, so I dont know is it all I could do myself or maybe there is any solution? In other case I'll go to service ;/

Lenovo g570 integrated graphic card problem

Hello, i've been forced to switch from windows 8 to windows 7 64 bit , and unfortunetly I'm not able to install graphic drivers . I've tried to install the one from lenovo drivers & support but whenever i try to do it i recieve an error "this computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software" . I am of course not able to install AMD drivers as well . Device manager -> display adapters detects only Standard VGA Graphics Adapter and that's strange as well. I've tried to reinstall windows , tried windows 7 32bit , windows 7 proffesional N all with the same result.

Hi Hliberacki,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that the Graphics and its driver features are not installing or working as expected in your G570 Laptop, the latest driver can be download from the AMD website and a simple auto detect application will install in the computer to make sure a relevant display driver for G570 Laptop is downloaded, below is the link to AMD auto detect application.
AMD Driver Autodetect
Hope this helps!!!
Do post us back if the issue still persists.

Lenovo g570 and wireless card problems

Ello folks,
I recently bought a Lenovo g570 Notebook, started using it all went fine recently i even upgraded my windows 7 to windows 8 x 64 and everything was swell. At some point my wireless connection was working fine but then BAM my wireless connection dissappeared from the list of connections. I must say that i had the same problem with the previous windows 7. Figured that the broadcast from the router was the problem but it turned out it wasn't sooo i'm assuming it's some kind of setting from the laptop because all other wireless using tech from home can see that particular network, all except the lenovo notebook.
Any help would be appreciated. I must say that i recently updated every driver to the latest after deinstalling the previous ones, without any result..... It's driving me nuts ....

hi mikydutza34,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
If you upgraded to WIndows 8 Pro, check these article as it's similar to your problem.
Wireless unable to switch on in Windows 8
Wireless card enabled but not connected after Win 8 Pro was installed

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.

Lenovo g510 amd driver problem

Hi Zoomin,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
I’m glad to inform you that as the driver is installed and working as expected this confirms that driver is for the exact mentioned AMD Hardware and there is no need to worry.
Do post us back for further queries.

Lenovo Ideapad u400 6470M driver problems Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit HELP

I bought this lenovo u400 like 2 years ago and i had no problems, but now my SSD went dead and i bought another, after the replacement i just installed the original windows 7 64 bit home premium, put my notebook's serial installed all the drivers, and when i install the Ati driver from Lenovo my pc gets stuck in a black screen with a white line on the top left of my screen, when i do FN+F8 while booting and start window's safe mode and i go to the device manager i see this ones: 6470M and Intel HD graphics family, when i disable intel hd graphics family my pc boots up normally but the resolution is 800x600 and the max is 1024x768, If i install the Intel 3000 HD my 6470m appears with a yellow triangle on the device manager, i've tried almost 30 different drivers from leshcat, hp, dell, lenovo and AMD's webpage, none of them work, and when i go to the CCC it just lists the intel 3000.
Sorry for my bad english, im from Argentina, Lenovo's support on argentina sucks, last time i've sent it it costed a lot of money, they scratched multiple parts on my laptop and didn't fix most of my problems, and i can't get the One Key backup anywhere, pls help, atleast AND IF ANYONE WITH A LENOVO U400 WITH WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM IS READING THIS AND HIS 6470M DRIVER IS WORKING, PLEASE CONTACT ME.
Lenovo, please, don't give me a crappy answer and most of times when that answer does not fix the problem then you give up and don't reply anymore. Im getting sick, i got this laptop for doing 3D modeling, video editing and multiple more and i just can't go and buy another, things are really expensive in Argentina.

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
Shiva Kumar

Lenovo G 560 display driver problem

The problem that I have: in 5 or 6 days my display goes black and after 2-3 seconds everything is OK again. When that happens I get a message from the system:" DISPLAY DRIVER STOPPED RESPONDING AND HAS RECOVERED"
"Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 188.38 stopped responding and has successfully recovered."
I tried with downloading and installing new,fresh drivers from Lenovo and the problem is still there!! Does anybody know what is the problem?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

un-install drivers first, restart your computer and re-install graphic card drivers from here.
by the way, have you installed any application or made any changes recently?

Lenovo 3000 G530 Gprahics Driver problem

i baught a new new laptop lenovo 3000 G530 with intel x4500mhd
installed vista ultimate x64
and donwloaded intel gma driver from lenovo support site...
but when i go for install it says " This Computer Does Not Meet the minimum requirements to instlal the software" with error mark

I had same problem. So what is wrong?
Actioly it is because that driver on Lenovo website is not x64... it is x32... so looks like your destiny is to install Vista x32. Because there is no x64 video driver at all!
N.B. I can say more - non of that drivers from Lenovo works good in x64 Vista... So i suggest you to install x32 Vista...
Also I wanna give you advise: after you install video drivers from Lenovo website update video drivers from this website: http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/drivers

HP Envy 14 1190ea AMD Driver Problem

Hello.
I've been searching for a while now to update the drivers for the graphics card processor.But I didn't find a solution.So , after running Windows Update two days ago , I discovered that the switchable graphics are not working anymore and whenever I try the AMD Catalyst Control Center it says to me that there are no configurable devices available on the laptop so it just shuts down.I've already tried a system recovery point , but the problem persists.What do I have to do in order to obtain the much needed drivers?Is there anyway you could provide with a solution or a link to a solution?
Thanks in advance for the support.
EDIT
I'm gonna try to uninstall the drivers from the Device Manager and reinstall them to see if this is the right solution.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi:
The problem is that you cannot update the graphics drivers for your model.
The only driver you can use is this one.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-101852-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
What happened was that Windows Update found an updated driver for the Intel portion of the switchable graphics but now that driver has caused the amd radeon gpu to quit working.
So, you are correct.
You need to go to the device manager, uninstall the Intel graphics driver windows update installed, reboot and reinstall the amd graphics driver above.
Then ignore or hide any updates you get for the Intel gpu.

[Athlon64] Cool n Quiet and AMD driver problem...

I hate to be the one to start another cool and quiet thread, but this is a problem I can't figure out. I have been running cool and quiet on my NEO Athlon 64 motherboard for over a year now, and it has worked perfectly, until today. I re-installed windows, because it was giving me problems, thanks to one too many virus and spyware attacks over the past year. Anyway, I installed windows, installed service pack 1, and all the assorted drivers for my hardware. I downloaded the latest AMD cpu driver and installed it. I have my power option set to minimal. I have everything just as it was, but the cool and quiet never kicks in. I am monitoring it with the Cool and Quiet panel, and it just sets at 2000 mhz. Cool and Quiet is turned on in the bios, and so is acpi. Windows xp reports having ACPI installed. I'm stumped. Is the fact I am using SP1 and have not upgraded to SP2 have anything to do with this? I notice the latest AMD cpu driver mentions it is for winxp SP2. I am avoiding SP2 because it has an issue with software that I use on my network. If it's because of SP2, is there a site I could download the older AMD cpu drivers from, to get this thing working? Thanks for any help you can offer.

Hello dude!
Well I remember to be in the same case, but when I reinstalled the WinXP, it comes with the SP2 integrated and I just active the Cool n Quiet installing the AMD Power Monitor lasted version and set se PM to Minimal, and it works perfectly, And about your problem with the WinXPSP2 Firewall you just have to unmark the LAN protection from the Firewall settings and thats all...
Enjoy the Life, Enjoy AMD...

ATI/AMD driver problem, HD6470M & HD6520G

Hi everyone, I've just installed Arch on my laptop which is lenove Z475 with AMD Radeon HD 6470M & HD 6520G, and it seems I've met several problem with the driver.
First, I've tried the catalyst, using "catalyst-generator 11.8-1", adding "radeon.modeset=0", but the topbar of Gnome3 just disappear and it crashed a few times.
So I decided to use "xf86-video-ati", but if I don't add "radeon.modeset=0", the screen goes black.
If I add "radeon.modeset=0", then I only got a "fallback" mode.
I've read wiki but still didn't how to solve it and I've tried to search but English is not my mother tongue, and I don't really know what "key word" would work better...
So... how to make the xf86-video-ati driver work normally?
Anybody can help?

ATI drivers from what I know still have major issues with Gnome3 - I am not sure if there is a solution. Check the AUR comments on catalyst package. I don't personally use Gnome so I'm not 100% sure.
