Windows 8.1 and graphics driver for AMD Radeon HD7670m

Hello
Some time ago, i`ve had problem with updating my Windows8 (64-bit) to 8.1 (64-bit). The problem was with switchable graphics, only Intel HD4000 was working and i couldn`t fix it by Catalyst Control centre, by AMD support forum and by this forum as well. 
I`ve seen this trouble a lot at forums, but i didn`t find the solution and reistalled my Windows 8.
Switchable graphics worked, but only this only old driver. All newones that i`ve tried to use didn`t work, or worked incorrect. That`s one question: we have only old driver (8.962.10.6000) without updates for new games, OSs, etc?
And another question is: was the problem fixed?
Because i`d like to install Windows 8.1, but i don`t want to "play" with drivers, strange solutions (like install beta driver for Windows7, from AMD website) and other. I want a working notebook (pavillion g6 2368 sr) with switchable graphics and win8.1

Hello @hi4man ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you have concerns about upgrading your notebook to Windows 8.1 from Windows 8 and losing the switchable graphics feature.
To use the switchable graphics feature you must use the drivers provided by HP on your products Drivers & Downloads page.
The drivers for your notebooks GPUs are bundled into one installation, meaning the Intel and AMD GPU drivers are in one package. This package is supported on both Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 and is available here: AMD High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver.
Try installing this driver after updating to Windows 8.1 and let me know if it works.
Note that you may need to disable the updates from Windows or the HP Support Assistant to have continued switchable graphics functionality.
I look forward to your reply!

  • T530 windows 8.1 Intel graphics driver for Widi

    A new graphics driver appears to be required when running Widi on the T530 after an upgrade to Windows 8.1.   Intel provides a generic version 15.33.5.64.3316, but this will not load on the T530.   It fails because it wants me to load a version from Lenovo.   Lenovo does not appear to have released a new graphics driver for the Intel 4000 graphics processor yet.   When will that be available?

    Solved!

    You need to uninstall the existing intel driver using programs and features in control panel. After restarting, the generic driver should be able to install using the installer. I wouldn't force install via device manger as when I did that it left components of the old driver around and caused system hanging.

  • Graphics Driver for HP Pavilion dv6t-6000 CTO Quad Edition Entertainment Notebook PC for Win 8.1

    Hello Everyone,
    I currently have an HP Pavilion dv6t-6000 Quad Edition with intel i7 and switchable radeon HD graphics card . I have made the jump from Windows 7 to 8.1 as I am a Current University student studying Information technology and have the need to be updated in terms of technology. I found Win 8.1 to run a bit faster on my PC than Win 7. I have ran into a couple of problems when upgrading to 8.1.
    1.) I've been having an issue finding the correct and stable Video Graphics driver for my Radeon HD 6770M switchable graphics. I tried intalling the original Win 7 driver in the HP driver but does not work properly. I have also tried download a generic driver from the AMD Radeon driver website, but the screen is extremly dim when intalled and is almost impossible to use unless I hold a lamp to the LCD screen. The brightness function keys DO get reconized when pressed, but the brighness will not change no matter how high or low the brightness threshold is at.
    2.) It is a bit out of topic, but I have also been having alot of trouble getting the validity fingerprint sensor to work with Win 8.1.
    I would really appreciate if anyone can help me with these issues or point me in the right direction in order to get them fixed. I am an IT student and have done alot of reasearch on these topics but have been unable to get them to work as intented.
    P.S: I have read alot of fixes about brightness using regedit and edditing some values on specific registry entries. I have found them for many other pc manufacturers, but not for HP. Not an expert on registry stuff, but seems like many people get it fixed by doing so. Just an idea.

    Due to the age of this model, HP is only providing drivers for Windows 7. After searching through the HP Forum, I was unable to find a satisfactory solution to your issue.
    Please contact official HP Customer Support in your region / country, via the HP Worldwide Support Portal, for official assistance with your issue.
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

  • Windows 8 graphics driver for macbook pro

    Which graphics driver for my macbook pro early 2011 for bootcamp windows 8 pro do I use?  Does it switch between AMD 7400 and Intel graphics 3000?  Is there a way to make it switch or will it be automatic?
    I have had problems where screen scrambles or turns blue with narrowly spaced vertical white lines.  I generally just reboot my system and the problem goes away for awhile.  This problem has not occured with OSX Mountain Lion, only happens with Windows 8.
    What is the recommended solution?  Surely Mountain Lion Boot Camp should have appropriate graphics driver support for Windows 8 by now!

    As Windows can't switch graphic cards of your Mac, Windows only uses the AMD graphic card. From what you say, it may be a driver issue, so I recommend you to download the most recent driver from the AMD website > http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx
    Apart from that, as you said, Windows 8 Boot Camp drivers aren't ready yet, so you may have these type of problems until Apple releases those updated drivers

  • Sound and graphics drivers for Satellite P200-1EE and Windows XP

    Hello all,
    I just bought a new Sattelite P200-1EE. I had it downgraded to Windows XP Service Pack 2. from Vista.
    I have two problems:
    1. I cannot find the graphics driver for the ATI Radeon Mobility HD2600 for Windows XP. When I hit the link,
    I get an "could not connect to remote server".
    2. I cannot get the sound driver to work. In fact, I can't even see the sound card. Ishel there something else I need to install?
    Thanks for any help

    Regarding the point;
    1) It looks like a driver server issue possibly the guys maintain the server. I would recommend checking this in next few days.
    2) First of all you have to update the XP to the latest state. All available MS hotfixes for XP must be installed. Very important are these patches; KB888111 and KB835221. You have to install these patches before the sound driver installation.
    Best regards

  • Compatibility of graphics driver for vista with xp

    I have a HP Pavilion a6320in desktop. It came installed with Vista OS. I have now installed Win XP. Will the graphics driver for Vista:  NVIDIA GeForce 6100 nForce 420, 6150 LE, 6150SE nForce 430, 7100/NVIDIA nForce 630i and 8200, also work for Win XP?

    I had simply pasted the name of the graphics driver from the HP download page, that's why the names of all the differing devices appear.
    I had replaced the original motherboard MCP61PM-HM (Nettle2) with ECS GeForce6100PM-M2. I tried installing winXP, but the graphics were hazy and performance very slow. Somebody suggested I need to install the graphics driver. Will the graphics driver you suggested work?
    OK.
    Now that is new information that you should have shared earlier with us.
    You need to use all of the drivers that are available at the ECS website for the  ECS GeForce6100PM-M2 motherboard. Do not use the HP drivers for the replacement motherboard.
    FYI ..Once you replace the motherboard with a different brand than delivered your desktop PC ceases to be an HP desktop PC.

  • Qosmio x300-13W - hybrid SLI and graphics driver support

    Why oh why cant Toshiba give us a new graphics driver for the x300-13w?
    I noticed alot of other drivers have been updated in January 2009 but who knows how old the graphics driver is that comes preinstalled on the restore partition?
    Its not good enough to spend nearly 2000 on what is meant to be a gaming laptop and not have the most crucial of driver support.
    In order to play the latest games (which this laptop certainly can) we all require a regular graphics driver update-one example is stalker clear sky which is unplayable in dx10 and sli with the driver that comes with the installation.
    The worst thing of all is that there doesn't seem to be a way to disable SLI and still use one of the 9800gts cards-the driver always reverts to using just the 9400g which is unsuitable for gaming-doesn't Toshiba/nvidia realise some games work better if you can disable SLI.
    The x300-13w is a great laptop but without the display driver support I really might have wasted my cash-anybody considering buying this model I suggest you get the x300 11w instead-its cheaper has a single more powerful graphics card and you can probably update your drivers because it isn't hampered by SLI.....

    Hi
    in notebook design and production, I am sure Toshiba takes the latest available Nvidia driver and configures it for use with the notebook for best performance and optimal "cool" operation. After the notebook is on the market, I think Toshiba does its best to provide update drivers but given the number of notebook models that Toshiba has produced over say, the last three years and the number of Graphic driver updates NVidia has created, it would be an impossible task for any notebook producer to follow; let alone the fact that every one of these driver changes would need to be tested (on most games) before the drivers are released. I assume Toshiba provides the link to the NVidia web site to satisfy users who must have the newest and highest performance driver (there are people who can not do without) and are willing to risk notebook damage. More power to these people, but there is a price to pay!
    On the other side, NVidia does not and can not create a new driver for every variety of notebook on the market i.e. sub-notebook, notebook, desktop replacement, gaming notebook and for every notebook producer.
    Again this is an impossible task. Just like Microsoft can not release new graphic drivers for every operating system they have created (Windows 7 is coming). Should I mention Linux...
    So for users who need the newest, highest performance drivers like me, let's just do it! ...but if I am flying with jet fuel instead of high octane fuel for my gaming PC, there is a good chance that I might go down in flames...
    I will have had fun but I don't think I can blame Toshiba or NVidia or Microsoft for my obsession...

  • Windows Could not find the Driver for your Apple iPod USB Device (5G 30GB)

    I have a 8GB iPod Nano. My roommate has a 30GB 5G Video. Black.
    My iPod syncs flawlessly. His is not recognized by Windows or iTunes. Every time we plug in the iPod, it prompts us for the driver. I tried to install the update apple mentions through the windows process, but after going through the tedious Windows Genuine Verification process, I was told that the update didn't apply to my computer.
    We use a Lenovo Thinkpad T60p, which shipped with Windows Vista Business.
    We are running iTunes 7.3.1.3, and there are no windows updates available for the computer.
    I have...
    ...reset
    ...reinstalled 7.3.1.3 (over and over and over)
    ...tried different USB ports. (Early on, we saw it once after swapping ports).
    ...tried turning off the ability of the computer to 'Turn this device off to save power."
    I have also verified that the iPod works on my work Dell Lattitude D620 running XP, and that it's not the cord, as we've used the cord that came with my Nano as well.
    So, the problem seems to be with vista, as many people seem to have had. The best thread I found that deals with this was http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=995793.
    But even after having tried everything, I still have an unrecognizable iPod.
    When I run iPod diagonostics, everything seems okay, except for the iPod connection, which says failed. I've had difficulty working with the iPod service under Computer/Device Manager - it doesn't ever seem to stop or start, with the iPod plugged in or not.
    And interestingly enough, the FAT32 external harddrive that I use to back up my data exhibits exactly the same problem ("Windows could not find the driver for your USB Mass Storage Device). This device worked great in XP, and even odder, I have a FAT32 partition of the main HD as a swap space between my VistaOS and my Ubuntu installation.
    Do I have to chalk this up to another issue with Windows Vista? What bothers me there is that you're a ping-pong between windows support and apple support - no one really owns up the problem.

    Bill, I've been stuck in this loop for 3 months since buying a new laptop with Vista Basic. I've tried everything to no avail. I don't know what else to do apart from buying a cheap PC running XP. Let me know if you manage to find a solution and I'll do the same.
    Regards. Adam

    Unfortunately no.  The Radeon 9000 driver should bring your graphics score up to close to 2, but it will not get it high enough to enable Aero support.
