• Inspiron 15R SE 7520 video card problems

  Dear DELL,

  This is a story of love at first sight, a happy period of parade and then heartbreak. When shopping for a new laptop, I fell upon a jewel of one. display 1080 p MATTE? Check. Zippy image Ivy Bridge CPU? Check. Clean, dedicated GPU? Check. Large amounts of RAM? Check. HARD drive tough? Check. FOUR USB 3.0 ports? Check. Optical disc (call me old-fashioned)? Check. Decent price tag? Check (after rebate online). Didn't hesitantly does not, I immediately bought an Inspiron 7520 home in July of 2012. At first, everything was a lot. I had a wonderful relationship with my laptop. The AMD Radeon HD M 7730 run latest games on medium to high heat, as long as I was not too hard with the resolution. Ultra high heat were out of the question, but I was fine with that. Of course, if DELL had to procure a 7750M or a 7770M, things would have been even more pink. Ah, good times!

  As they say, all good things have an end. This relationship that bordered on perfection did not last long. In October of the same year, a tragedy struck. My baby was delivered with Win7 Home Premium 64-bit, but since I am eligible for the purchase of Win8 at a subsidized price, I went for him just after launched Win8. Initially, I had been suspicious of the upgrade because I was afraid that there would be problems of compatibility with my existing games (I have a large library of titles of steam). However, after researching this issue, I discovered that there was not much to fear. WIN8 seemed to be just as good for gaming under Win7 (or even better). So I made the leap.

  And here! Immediately after the installation of Win8, it became clear that DELL had not fully prepared for the influx of new users of Win8 7520. From the beginning, my AMD video card stopped working. Needless to say, it was obviously a driver problem. I'm a patient person. That's why I decided to wait for DELL or AMD released a newer version of pilots 7730M. Because, you know, builders/OEMs need time to do their stuff. And I understood that. Take a few weeks, heck, take a couple of months. So, I want a fully functional GPU again so that I can play games Beyond 800 x 600 on low heat. Now, when I try to open the Catalyst Control Center, it just gives me this error: " " "Catalyst Control Centre cannot be started. Currently, there are no settings that can be configured with the Catalyst Control Center'. Tick, tock, tick tock... Fast forward to today, March 5, 2013, and it's been about half a year what Win8 was created.

  Here's a question, DELL - WHERE ON EARTH ARE THE LATEST DRIVERS for the AMD RADEON HD 7730 M?

  Before any tech support agent gives me an official response asking me to troubleshoot/diagnosis/attempt to repair my system, I'll save you the trouble: don't. Here is a (non exhaustive) list of the steps I have taken in the past half a year to troubleshoot/diagnosis/attempt to repair my system:

  -I went through the whole process "devmgmt.msc".

  -J' I updated my version of .NET for the last.

  -J' downloaded and installed ALL the latest drivers for BIOS, GPU, WLAN, USB 3.0, memory card reader, and even, you name it. Yes, not even the latest GPU drivers on your work site. The 7730M does everything just quite Win8. This means that the two latest drivers are not later, or that you have published a very sloppy update that probably made things worse rather than improve it.

  -J' checked multiple for a line (beginning with DELL) for corrections.

  -J' visited the site Web of AMD and unacceptable, specific Win8 for 7730M drivers have not been released yet. Worse yet, it seems that they have not committed to a schedule for updating their drivers!

  -J' tried to install different versions of drivers of M 7730, none has made a difference.

  -I probably did some other things but I do not remember anything else right now.

  Look, it's very simple, DELL. On behalf of all THOSE who have purchased the 7520 from you (and I know that he is a popular model), we are sick and tired of waiting for an update of the simple driver! If AMD can not get their shit right, move them, push, force to! You have a business relationship with them, but you also have a relationship with us, your customers. If you indeed treat us like your valuable customers, so please, please, please, please, please, just publish this update of elusive driver that reactivates the GPU in our 7520, if running on Win7 or Win8. It is a shame for me; In fact, I took the time to type this essay just to release all my pent-up frustration.

  Finally, I got it with not be able to enjoy something that I legitimately own the way I want. If you don't sort this issue as soon as possible, I give you my word, I don't have to buy another DELL again. Do not respond to this letter by means of a useless official response you give to each complainant unique, I like to take concrete measures. Also, I don't want to go down to Win7 I like Win8, so this isn't an option as well. This issue has climbed out of control - simply by looking at the number of threads complaining about this same exact thing makes me want to pull out my hair. Once more, on behalf of all Inspiron 15R SE 7520 owners, I beg DELL and/or AMD to lead to a permanent solution to this problem quickly. Pretty please?

  Yours sincerely,

  An extremely agitated owner Inspiron 7520

  I've been using a n5010 with a core i3 370 m and 4650 m since 2.5 years even if there is an increase in acceptable performance for me: p I know I shouldn't expect to play on the set high in the good fps but it will do the job for me. And Yes, I couldve built much better desktop at the same price, but I'll take it to College for CAD, so there need to be a portable system. Instead, think wait you two months or more for computers laptops haswell will be worh it?

• Dell Inspiron 15R SE AMD video driver problems (7520)

  Hello

  Updated Windows Installer update drivers AMD GPU for me earlier. I think the problem is that it has installed the AMD site instead of graphics drivers switchable drivers that are compatible with my laptop (Inspiron 15R SE).

  All programs that use the AMD card crashes when I start the system, including the Catalyst Control Center and the switchable graphics program. I tried to get into windows to display advanced options, but windows stops responding when I open the menu (Gray screen for about a minute then it returns with the window closed).

  Dxdiag crashes if I start it, and if I try to run again he asks me if I want to run without Direct3D. If I press 'No', it crashes. If I accept, he let me in but does not detect the graphics card AMD.

  I tried to uninstall the drivers and re - download coupons Dell website, but the problem persists.

  I'm running an AMD Radeon HD m 7730 GPU and 4000 HD Intel integrated graphics.

  TL; DR: All programs set to use graphic crash dedicated. Drivers say they have updated, but the problem is still there. Cannot access driver rollback screen (windows crash).

  If you need more information, just ask. I run the Dell Diagnostics tool and he found nothing wrong, so it is a driver problem.

  Hello

  I followed the steps you posted. Uninstall driver AMD asked me to restart later, so I allowed him to. I was greeted with a BSOD whenever I started. I tried to boot my Dell driver recovery disk, but there is no drive detected. I finally decided I had to do a system restore.

  The good news is that the problem is resolved.

  Bad news is that I lost all my files. This time I am disabling the windows driver updates...

• Inspiron 15R SE 7520 video card does not work after update Windows 8.1

  The internal graphics are Intel HD 4000 and the graphics card is a Radeon HD M 7730. After update for Windows 8.1 almost everything worked, except that it only uses the integrated Intel graphics card. Now, the resolution is not right and parts of the interface Windows look rather mediocre in comparison.

  What I tried:

  • Uninstalling the video card drivers
  • Reinstall the drivers for the video card in Dell
  • Install the latest beta drivers directly on the AMD website
  • Disabling the integrated Intel graphics card
  • Uninstall the Intel integrated graphics card

  So now what?

  Hi all

  After a lot of Googling, got this Dell website which has 8.1 Windows drivers for Inspiron 15R 7520 SE:

  http://FTP.Dell.com/published/pages/Inspiron-15R-se-7520.html#TopSolutions

  After having installed the drivers from AMD & Intel HD4000 for Win8.1 on the site above, blurry of the screen disappeared and catalyst works again!

  Please spread this link autour!  Very weird representatives Dell did not provide this link. Their advice to uninstall drivers / stop windows update does not help.

• New Inspiron 15R SE 7520 video startup problems

  I recently bought a new laptop and it has had problems since I got it. Originally I was to blame these on windows 8 and stuck through them to get used to, but my graphics card which is a 2 GB AMD RADEON HD M 7730 planted a lot almost without reason. The screen would go black and then reappear with a bubble WARNING saying something like "AMD graphics card has recovered from an unexpected fall. At this point, I decided to go back to windows 7, but after trying to do a new reinstall Windows 7, it just stopped and then whenever I start, it displays an error message on a black screen background I would like to select windows 8 and he would go as usual.

  Now the real problem you now have the baseline. Today I opened my laptop after leaving it on when the lid accidentally closed. It seemed that everything was fine, but the continuous black screen and then finally just stayed black. I turned off the laptop to see if I could reset it and when I turned it back I had no video output at all. The power light turns on, the fan starts going and nothing other than the gradual power in light. One of the buttons on the front, which I assume is the battery (a small box with a lightning bolt in the middle) button flashes between red and white.

  I tried to find solutions, but almost all the other problems that I find tell me to wait for the dell logo to appear or buttons wedge at a time when starting, but I still don't receive anything other than a black screen.

  Any help would be appreciated to gretly, luckily I still have my old laptop so I can use it to ask.

  Well, after a few other sites by browsing, I found that if I just remove and replace the battery it now works fine. Ill put this here incase anyway everyone has the same problem.

• Screen flashes different colors and freezes at the same time, there is a video card problem?

  When it gets really bad most of the screen will Blanch and freeze. This global problem cut in and out, but is common.
  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  EDIT: I forgot to mention that it is a HP G62 laptop.

• 660 Inspiron video card problem

  Yesterday, I bought an Inspiron 660 and I bought an EVGA GeForce GTX 550 Ti - 2 GB Superclocked video card to upgrade from the integrated Intel HD graphics card already in there. I got my computer and then to Best Buy to pick up my card only to find out when I cracked the open Inspiron 660 food had no additional power cable! So, I can't start my new card! I am very disappointed, my old Dell Dimension E510 had manipulated and additional power cables my XFX GeForce 8600 GTS very well! Why this model that is supposed to be more recent, faster and better would not address this EVGA GeForce GTX 550 it? Is there anything I can do to remedy the situation before I have on factory reset and return this piece-o-junk?

  Is there a 500 Watt electric and cable someone recommend me?

  Here are a few suggestions.   GTX 550 it should take only a single PCIe 6-pin power cable.  However, all these two have.

  Inspiron will usually just come with the 300 Watt power supply in the mini towers.  You must go to the XPS line for larger power supplies.  Video cards are now more energy efficient.  Maps of the past who had need of connections do not today at certain levels of performance.    There are a lot of cards today that will be better than the old 8600 GTS which requires no power connections.

• Lenovo G510 video card problem

  Hello! For some time, I have a few problems with the graphics card on my laptop. When I try to launch a game using the AMD graphics card by going to "Switchable Graphics", the game does not work, I mena I can hear background noise of the game, but the screen is black. When I switch to Intel graphics card the game works perfectly.

  When I go to Device Manager, I see the graphics card Intel and AMD. But when I use FurMark I only see the Intel graphics card, which is the only one that works.

  When I run TechPowerUp GPU - Z I get an error telling me to update my OPENCL and my video card driver.

  Any ideas, please?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Just remove Intel and AMD graphics drivers in Device Manager and of course be sure to remove the respective graphics software too (can be made in programs and features, found in Control Panel)

  First install Intel Graphics driver, then install AMD graphics driver on the respective support of your OS site.

  And do not update your Intel of Windows Update drivers and or directly from the site Web of AMD.

  It is best to install drivers from manufacturer as they can be adapted to our machines.

• Inspiron 15r SE 7520 MaxxAudio 4 problem

  Hello

  My problem is that my Equalizer will take no effect after the last update of victory 10 birthday, I tried to reinstall the driver and app. All settings under speakers/headphones used effect on the sound.

  Hello. Dell provides 2 audio drivers Conexant for Win10, for the Inspiron 15R SE 7520.  Try them both and see if we have the function you want to use.

  Version 1.0.52.0 - October 4, 2013

  and

  Version 8.54.40.50 - 3 February 2016

  If you currently have the new driver, you must completely remove it before installing the old.

  1. open Device Manager (found in the Control Panel, or type devmgmt.msc in the search box).
  2. expand the section 'Sound, video & game controllers.
  3. right-click the Conexant High Definition audio driver.
  4. click on "Uninstall".
  5. put a check mark in the option to remove the software driver, click ok.
  6. restart the laptop. Because you deleted the Conexant driver files, Windows will install its native audio driver, named "High definition Audio Device".

  Go back to Device Manager and make sure that "High definition Audio Device" is installed. When this is the case, you can install the old driver Conexant. However, depending on the version of Win10 you have, it can automatically up-to-date for the new driver.

• Problem upgrading the h8-1409 HP Envy video card problem

  Hello.

  I just bought this machine and it has a good processor and ram good, but it comes with a card missing video (HD7570).  I want to upgrade the video card at one of the best maps I have of my old machines (Gigabyte GTX 660 ti and an Evga GTS 250).  When I install one of these cards but, I get no video output.  I can hear the initialization of the system and the hard drive works, so everything seems fine here.

  This machine comes with a 460W power supply, which should be enough to run one of these cards, but no go.  In order to exclude food, I tried on a secondary market, OCZ 600W PSU, but got the same result.  Two cards work in my old machine, so I know that the cards are good.

  The specifications of the main Board are here:

  http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?objectID=c03132942

  As far as I know, it should work.  Is there something I'm missing?

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  Only use one video card in your PC and make sure that it is installed in the PCI-E x 16 slot.

  Boot in the bios (ESC and F10) and go to security topics. Try each of the topics and search a secure Boot Configuration.  If it exists, then see if Secure Boot is disabled.  A poster said that secure boot disabling enabled the installed video card. I have not tried this on a HP active UEFI motherboard but I know that it isn't a problem with another mother UEFI card that I use.  Your mileage may vary.

• REALLY weird Y570 screen problem. Video card problem?

  So I have a lenovo y570, and during random times of the day, my screen ends up looking like this.

  http://img845.imageshack.us/img845/4519/weirdscreen.PNG

  Now, once that I clic click on the screen, scroll upwards or downwards or refresh the page, the image disappears, so this isn't a serious problem, its all just annoying. I have already updated the video card driver and uninstalled mcafee (who got rid of other problems that I had), but this problem still remains. Any suggestions?

  Hi Thaibo,

  weird display can be caused by a bug in the browser Google Chrome .

  Please try a different browser e.g. Firefox or IE.

• Lenovo H430 video card problem

  Hi all

  I searched a bit on the forum but not found an answer to the problem I encounter. Apologies if it was answered, and I just missed him...

  I have a H430 Office with an i3-2120. I recently bought a Quadro 600 to install in the box. When I install the video card and turn on the box, all I see is the start of Lenovo screen. Nothing happens, then I heard 2 beeps. Normally, I have that would be associated with the RAM, but the machine works well when I use the integrated graphics card.

  I use the original supply of 280 watt, but the Quadro uses only 40 watts max. Any ideas on what could be the problem?

  Thanks in advance!

  Hi, thanks for the help!

  I got the card to operate, although it took a bit of time. I tried to put my bios to the latest available on the Lenovo Web site. In the bios file, there is a program that is used to update the bios from Windows. If you use a 64-bit system, DO NOT try to use it!

  I ended up getting a Gigabyte card to use, found a legacy setting in the bios menu and was able to get everything works perfectly!

• Series 2000 dv4: thinking that there is a video card problem

  the laptop I have is a series of 2000 dv4

  VM301UA

  I noticed that when I'm on facebook, or something in which the video card must be used, my laptop start to overheat! in which it will overheat until the fans are strong running and finally cut!

  is there some sort of update or something that could be done in this sense?

  Hi @andrewtiw,

  Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion dv4 - 2048 ca Notebook PC and questions with warming. You could restore the BIOS with this document by selecting the reload the default BIOS settings that may resolve the problem.

  Here is a link to overheating . If the laptop has dust on the fans, it could be overheating.

  If this does not help at the end of this document it tells you to do a test equipment. It will check any concerns with your hardware on the laptop.

  I would like to know how this happens.

  Thank you.

• Help, T420s display/video card problem!

  Hi all. I would be grateful for any input.

  Recently happened a lot with my T420s especially when I was on the video playback in full screen. The screen has suddenly become as the image, I enclose below, and there is no answer at all. Then after 30 seconds or more, the system stops. I suspected a problem with my video card overheating. BTW, the fan in my T420s works also like crazy all the time, I put in place with this since I have my laptop

  My last laptop was T61. With all the Nvidia graphics problem before, I am so afraid it would have hit me again. I would return the laptop immediately to Lenovo. I am writing my thesis now with this computer. Really cannot afford not having no not my computer for awhile.
