HP Pavilion G6-1242ee: Configure switchable graphics button is missing!

Hello.

I went to my device manager and click with the right button on my graphics card to day. The update succeeded without any problem.

2 pilots that I displayed view:

AMD Radeon HD 6470 M and Intel HD graphics Family.

These are the drivers that I have had since I have this pc.

For some reason any after I rebooted my pc (to complete the update), I could see no longer the switchable graphic button to set up, and when I click on my AMD control center button, I get an error saying: Catalyst Control Center Host has stopped working.

Help, please!

Thanks for the reply, I solved the problem by updating manually to the latest drivers for my card now, the button is back, as well as the control center.

Hello

Do you mean switchable graphics AMD technology that switches between graphic internal Intel and external ATI GPU?
As far as I know that this is not supported. Only the switch between Intel <->nVidia (called optimus technology) is supported.

Pavilion g6t-2000 CTO: switchable graphics in Pavilion g6

I bought this phone two or three years ago, but didn't notice this problem until a year ago. This is because I did not know what as switchable graphics were and supposed worked the map I spent an extra $ 100 for. I'm unable to use the AMD m7076HD graphic card at all. Instead I am forced to use the 4000HD Intel integrated for gaming, which is far from ideal. When I start the computer I get an error message saying that I don't have the dirvers for AMD when I left click on the desktop there is no option to configure switchable graphics, when I try to start CCC it gives me an error message saying that there are no settings to configure, when I try to change the graphic properties it only shows me that the Intel chip When I look into the setting graphic video games there is only the chip intel, and in the bios there is no fixed and switchable settings. The only way that I know that I have and AMD card in the computer is the Device Manager say. So far, I have tried several times to update the drivers for the cards and the bios of HP and just leshcat cards, repeaditly. I also took to geek team once, but the most they could do was to get CCC to open. With GTA 5 on I really want the issue to be fixed. Is there anything else I can do? I've scoured the web last year and found no other soloutions for my specific problem. If there's really nothing else I can do myself, where should I consider truly fixed. From what I've read, it seems that many other people had this problem and it never solved. I'm done with this computer and HP, I need answers quickly, or I'll just cut my losses and buy a new laptop from a brand that will sell me fully functional. Let me know if you need more info.

Hi there @supersadness

Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, so many other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff.

I understand that you have had problems with switchable graphics on your laptop. I'm happy to help you with this.

First, you talk to install several drivers for this, but in reality, if you have switchable graphics, you need just the driver on the HP site, which contains the drivers for the AMD and Intel for a switchable configuration.

Please read the following for more information on how it works.

Computers laptops HP - overview of switchable graphics or dual GPU

HP - Switchable Graphics on laptops laptops configured with Intel and ATI GPU

This should be the only driver, you must install for switchable graphics features. It will start to download on your download folder by default once you click on the link. You will then need to run to start the installation. However I would recommend uninstall video driver previous first, then by restarting and then installing this driver.

AMD graphics driver high definition (HD)

Also, here is the description of the functionality from the download page:

This package provides the AMD graphics driver high definition (HD) and Catalyst Control Center for models of laptop computers that are running an operating system supported. For laptops equipped with switchable graphics modes, this package contains the drivers for the two graphics (GPU). Switchable graphics allow users to switch between a graphical power mode (normally used under the power of the battery) and a mode of graphics performance. If the video output high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) is supported, this package also installs the HDMI Audio Driver.

Let me know if it helps.

ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 graphics card

For the past year, the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 is always on, and I'm unable to switch to the Intel HD Graphics.

If I open the Catalyst Control Center, nothing happens when I click on Power Saving GPU. In addition, Intel HD Graphics does not show as an option in the drop-down list (see below).

However, the Device Manager shows the two devices and gives me the option to disable the two:

I have a Manager friend who works on Intel graphics issues, and he advised I have download and reinstall the graphics Intel HD since the Pavilion dm4t-1100 driver. I did, and when I try to reinstall it, I have this message:

Not being able to solve this killed my battery, and I want to fix this problem before I kill another.

I read in one of them that I'm able to roll back a device driver to get this working. Is it possible for this situation? If so, which of the two devices I restore?

Any other suggestions?

Hello

I think that the driver you are referring to, is available for download directly from AMD, unfortunately it won't work because it will not include the required Intel gpu driver or the Catalyst Control Center custom necessary to control your switchable graphics - downloads directly from AMD are generally for machines that only has an AMD graphics chip.

If you can't find the original version of HP of the AMD software to reinstall via Recovery Manager, try to download and install the switchable graphics driver on the following link: it's of an earlier model contains the two drivers required gpu and custom CCC.

http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp48501-49000/sp48551.exe

When the installation is complete, restart the laptop - as I mentioned earlier, you may need to restart two times to get this to configure correctly.

Hello:

Please read the thread below for another Member of the forum how to have switchable graphics to work on a 4540 Probook s that has the same graphics card than yours.

Try the steps in Riri91 .

is it necessary to configure switchable graphics?

I have Del Inspiron N5520 HD4000 Intel have provided with the Intel Core i7 processor and a separate video card, the AMD Radeon HD M 7670 , the user can choose to match labour
What is the graphics processor...?

After every 3-4 minutes, a window appears and says that the application (for example xyz.dll or commandos.exe uses 3D graphics or video but is not currently associated with specific graphics processor to select a processor for the click of the application configures /)

It is necessary to associate the graphic processor for applications... or what app I associated... ???

I don't have a laptop or a PC with integrated graphics, but I think it would be wise to combine all of your games 'high end' to the dedicated graphics card. Some games low spec can be OK with the HD4000 whether Intels best integrated graphics offering. Use it with suitable games will save on power.
Most other applications, even videos should be fine with the integrated graphics card.
Once everything has been associated with the card or the HD4000 you shouldn't
have to do it again.

The link below has a number of game guides. As you can see, most of the high-end games would need all low settings to work with a decent rate (30 frames per second or more) when you use the HD 400 graphics.

HP Pavilion 2307tx g6: lack of switchable Graphics Options

Prouct: HP Pavilion 2307tx g6
OS: Windows 7 ultimate (64 bit)

Product number: D4B15PA
Graphics card: Intel Graphics HD 4000/Radeon HD Graphics 7670 M

Hello. I need a help or instructions of my situation. I have a problem, look for the switchable graphics options for my laptop. The original operating system of this is Windows 8 64-bit. I changed my operating system in Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. After you have installed the necessary drivers for my laptop, I noticed that the switchable graphics options configure is missing, even the AMD Catalyst Control Center. I installed two drivers properly after installation of Windows 7, but AMD graphics options is missing. I tried to update my driver AMD by installing the latest driver, subsequently software Catalyst through the utility of automatic detection, but after installation, my laptop screen became large, and the option "Configure Switchable Graphics", said that the driver I have installed is not compatible with my laptop. I opened the system restore back to a point where I have not installed yet. I'm not sure if I should install the AMD driver that I found here in the HP drivers. If anyone knows how I can reinstall the driver of my need of system, I would be grateful.

Thank you

Hello:

Because your laptop is the switchable graphics, the driver only graphics that you can use is the HP one.

I don't think that HP has linked the AMD/Intel switchable graphics driver to the correct address to the care of your laptop and driver page.

Uninstall the graphic drivers you have already installed and restart... but instead, try this one g6t-2000.

This package provides the AMD graphics driver high definition (HD) and Catalyst Control Center for models of laptop computers that are running an operating system supported. For laptops equipped with switchable graphics modes, this package contains the drivers for the two graphics (GPU). Switchable graphics allow users to switch between a graphical power mode (normally used under the power of the battery) and a mode of graphics performance.

Hello:

There is no graphics card AMD switchable for my model, even with a BIOS update. That is right.

Or is it still be grayed out as in the current state. That is right. An update of the BIOS will do nothing to allow you to change the graphic memory settings. Everything will be grayed out as before.

So if I overload a game settings, from the middle to the extreme, this means that most of the 3 GB memory graphics will be allocated to catch the game? Or even will not use the 737 MB dedicated? The laptop will initially use all the dedicated memory. If that wasn't enough, he will then consume the maximum (2.4 GB) memory system available and put it to the chart.

Switchable Graphics does not

Hello

I have a HP Pavilion g6t-2000 who has dual graphics cards. I bought this laptop with this specific graph Radeon HD 7670 M map for use with ProPresenter 5.

However, I can see the graphic card installed in my device manager, but I can't access it from my DirectX application. Furthermore, when I right click on the Windows desktop and select "Configure Switchable Graphics", I get an error message indicating that ' Catalyst Control Center cannot be started and that there are no configurable properties... ". »

What is the problem? I already double checked all my drivers, BIOS, etc are up to date.

Thank you.

Matt

No option switchable graphics after updating of the CCC to 13.101

The version on my computer:

Product name: HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC

Product number: QJ916AV

Graphics card: Radeon 6770 m

Yesterday, I saw a forum that says updating your graphics card can solve the problems of far cry 3, so I updated my graphics card with the amd catalyst driver beta 13.

He basically updated my CCC to the latest version and also my graphics driver in Device Manager it turned Radeon 6770 m to radeon series 6700 m.

I'm not sure if my graphics card is actually changed, because this update is not directly from hp and so far it is not availible.

After the update, the CCC, I can no longer configure switchable graphics in my laptop. I want to downgrade my CCC driver and graphics to the original. I know that system restore will not work. should I uninstall AMD and then reinstall it from thishttp://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-105178-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...

package?

If I should, y at - it a tutorial for uninstall safely, I don't want to spoil it!

NVM, you simply uninstall and reinstall, without other stuff need to worry

Success Story with get switchable graphics to run on Windows 10 with one to Inspiron 15r / Inspiron 7520

For background, some Dell laptops have a function where they use a low-power intel graphics card when running undemanding applications, but they spend a graphics card with high power, high power (series AMD Radeon) when demanding games is running. With the AMD/Intel version, it's a very fragile Setup and you can not download an older version of the drivers and expect to work. Dell engineers specifically design a version of intell driver installers that is compatible with this configuration.

Pilot automatic/windows updates and changes to the OS can overwrite on this delicate configuration and you are at the mercy of the people of Dell support on when you will get an updated driver. If you use just the vanilla Intel video drivers, they don't respect the will AMD to take the chart control and the AMD video card will sit unused in your laptop.

There are three parts to get Windows to use your preferred hardware driver, remove all installed software that provides drivers. This is done by uninstalling all the software that puts drivers on the hard drive. The second step is to remove all windows drivers is pegged against because Windows will not allow pilots used to be completely uninstalled. To do this put Windows in "safe mode" where it does not use most of the drivers and then uninstall and delete the driver files themselves. step final is to install your favorite drivers, the AMD and Intel video drivers in this case.

Here's how I got AMD/Intel switchable graphics to work in Windows 10:
1. I went on the site of dell drivers with Internet Explorer (not Microsoft Edge/Google Chrome/etc) and used the detection system to recognize my laptop. Then, I downloaded the video drivers Intel and AMD for 64-bit Windows 10
2. I uninstalled all of the AMD and Intel video drivers via the Add/Remove Programs application in Control Panel.
  1. You can search for "Remove programs" in the search box in the windows bar to get the applet in Windows 10.
  2. There are a lot of Intel drivers for things like network cards, be sure to uninstall the drivers for video cards only.
3. I started in SafeMode Windows 10. Search for instructions on internet to find out how to enter safe mode.
4. I opened the control panel and went to the Device Manager to remove the video drivers left on the system.
  1. I think that currently used driver files are not completely uninstalled when you uninstall the software of the driver in the usual way, we must do more.
  2. Open Device Manager (a passerby is windows key + 'x')
  3. Open graphics cards, there should be one for intel and amd.
  4. Right-click on each graphics card and choose uninstall. Then click on the option button driver remove and remove drivers
  5. reset
5. After the reboot, check that the graphics cards in Device Manager are very generic, they say probably intel or amd.
6. Install the device driver software intel you downloaded from dell
7. reset
8. Install the amd you device driver software downloaded from dell
9. reset
10. You should now see the option "Configure switchable graphics" If you right click on the desktop.
11. Try to run a game that requires a bit of graphics card
12. Open the app "Configure switchable graphics" and check that it has considered the game that you just ran and that he put it to 'high performance '.
13. fact
Probably, you should be on a/c during all this power. I think that I heard that the switchable graphics may change if it is on battery power, not sure.

Skyrim has worked after that, as well as the intros of l4d2 ran very slowly (they are incredibly unstable when they are executed on the graphics of intel), but the application itself crashed without warning on the desk, just as he finished a solo campaign of loading for me. I suspect that it's probably more a thing of windows 10 a graphical thing and hopefully reinstall the game will fix it.

Well, my case is very simple. I just install the driver the newest Intel.com and amd.com, and everything works. I wish just that Dell can update driver Audio Conexant Audio Device.

Y560 switchable graphics do not work

Hi all

I have the model of i5 y560 WITH switchable graphics, however, sometimes it does not.

Basically when I try to switch from graphics using the switch of the money up front, there is no response. I even tried to right click on desktop and try to change it using "configure switchable graphics", but there is still no response.

This happens very randomly, but usually after I wake up from sleep mode.

also, when this happens, my games tend to run at unusually low fps.

can someone tell me why this is happening?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Farhat. Once installed the AMD drivers can remove the ability to configure switchable graphics. Essentially, what you must do to restore its functionality, is to use the Recovery Manager HP to the rear original drivers and then upgrade to the latest HP drivers available. I've included links to several documents to guide you through the process and provide additional details. I hope this helps, let me know.

Here is the overview of the technology.
Switchable graphics Overview:
http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02731962

If you have the Intel + AMD configuration (which I think do you), this document will show you how to configure it.
Switchable Graphics on laptops configured with Intel and ATI GPU:
http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03048374

This program will show you, in your taskbar when the discrete GPU (your AMD) is active.

If you have lost the ability to configure switchable graphics card, you can restore the original drivers using the method described in this document.

Pavilion dm3 AMD switchable graphics (HD4000 & HD5000) in Windows 8

I have switchable graphics HD4225 & HD5430 discreet on my HP Pavilion dm3-2015er laptop.
I use the latest version of the driver for Radeon (until HD4000) old - 13.1.
But I can't find the driver to use my discrete graphics HD5430.
Could you help me with this problem?
I use Windows 8 starting November 1, 2013. I'm waiting for the compatible driver AMD 10 months already.
HP does not support the 'old' portable.
My HD4225 works fine now. I use the AMD driver. The level of brightness is adjustable. But I would use my discreet card also.

I have attached the screenshot - it indicates driver for HD4225 and HD5430 versions and I see that do HD5430 does not for the moment.

I have AMD switchable PowerExpress installed for my graphics. But when I click on the high-performance GPU button, that nothing is happening.

I think I'm on the right track to solve the problem.
If you will help me, it will help thousands of people with the same question.

Kind regards

I did it!

The switchable graphic works.

The solution is the 3GIO driver and video driver selected manually catalyst 12.1 Win7 package.

I think that this message might help someone.
