• Preview of Windows 8 consumers: AMD Switchable Graphics - Unswitchable

  Hi all

  I have a HP Pavilion dv6-6004tx laptop and I recently upgraded to the consumer preview Windows 8 (Build 8250). I wish that some troubleshooting those who have / are affected by this and may have found a way around it.

  Insofar as the specifications of my computer is:

  Intel Core i7-2720QM

  6 GB DDR3 RAM

  64-bit operating system

  AMD Radeon HD 6700M

  Family of Intel graphics

  The problem in my display drivers. Some of you may also have a Switchable Graphics feature that is installed in your computer. But for those who do not, basically, what it is is a feature that allows to switch the display adapter to a GPU to save energy to a GPU performance and vice versa.

  In my case, as you can see above, the GPU performance is the Radeon 6700 M, while the GPU to save energy is the integrated Intel one. My problem with not being able to switch back and forth, as if I was able to come back on Windows 7. As it is a feature of AMD Catalyst Control Center, I searched their site and they actually have a version of supported driver for Windows 8 CP, although still in beta and sometimes glitch.

  http://support.AMD.com/us/KbArticles/pages/Windows8ConsumerPreviewDrivers.aspx

  (As you can see, my model: AMD Radeon HD 6000 M Series is listed)

  I rebooted after installing the control center, and a popup notifcation tells me that:

  "The Catalyst Control Center is not supported by the version of the driver for your compatible graphics card. Please update your graphics driver from AMD, or activate your card AMD using the display manager. »

  I found this curious at first, my model was clearly indicated. But after an inference, I realized that my computer needs to run on the Intel integrated graphics by default. This has been further strengthened when I tried to play a few games and other applications (it would be a bit rough - also experienced before when I forgot to switch on GPU performance).

  The graphics card AMD Radeon used to have a mistake (the unit does not start. Code: 10) in the Manager of devices, but with a new installation of the driver got to AMD, it seems to work very well. However, my computer is still using the default Intel card, and I have no way to switch to the other GPU as catalyst will not start.
  
  Has anyone found a way around this?

  I'll give you a way to make it work!  He has listed there so many incompatibilities with the FIRST METHOD , you will not get use an Intel (less power consumption card) GPU to work after the changes! You have to wait until HP allows him to work properly or deal with the thirst for energy GPU AMD even in battery mode.

  THE SECOND METHOD listed works without any problems with the compatibility of all the apps BUT it IS demand the pace and order (can be comprehensive for beginners, no worries listed below has got all the information you need to make it work)

  IF the first option:

  NOTE: THIS WILL TRIGER OUTCONTROL EVENTS SO AS A PRECAUTION METHODS I RECOMMEND IN ADDITION AS WE GO STEP BY STEP _ DOWNLOAD CHROME IF RUNNING INTERNET EXPLORE (GRAPHICS CARD WORKS WITH THE GAMES BUT NOT WITH APPLICATIONS METRO THEY WON'T CRASH NOT JUST SE NOT LAUNCH)

  ALL METHODS BELOW TESTED BY MYSELF AND HAVE WORKED YET MUCH INCOMPATIBILIES WILL ALWAYS USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!

  I know all the games work properly battlefield 3 is yet to launch

  1 AT first make sure that windows UPDATE IS SWITCH OFF or let you choose to download and install (not automatically or it will update your device (in Device Manager) without your permission and all efforts are gone!

  2 uninstall AMD Catalyst "program and components" in Control Panel, and then uninstall all Intel and AMD devices in Device Manager in the control panel (unistal check pilot to pilot intel HD)

  3.reboot! After the restart, download this http://www2.ati.com/drivers/hotfix/win8/amd_catalyst_win8_consumer_preview _ [rc10] .exe

  and this

  ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp53001-53500/sp53025.exe - 300 MB

  4. install sp53025.exe in windows compatibility mode 7 (it will unpack in C:/SWsetup by default)

  then start the istalation make sure that u choose a "custom", THIS IS CRUCIAL - uncheck the CATALYST (check all the rest intell driver amd driver ect.) do not restart after the instalation

  5. then start the instalation of windows 8 consumer driver overview of AMD.

  Uncheck everything (after that the sp53025 it will be only the AMD (check/uncheck) driver and catalyst box (check/uncheck) available) uncheck the AMD driver and install the driver CATALYST only!

  Reset! Enjoy! There is no CATALYST (only preference of intel and the settings where the CATALYST should be) click the mouse but switchable graphics is now awailable LIKE THIS

  Unfortunately you won't be available to choose between the INTEL and AMD! AMD now works by default

  All the .exe now recognizes 6770 m

  AND METRO APPS WON ' T WORK! AS internet explore will crash as you will open it

  SECOND METHOD, IF THE FIRST FAILS (WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE IF THE HANDS ARE MORE OR LESS STRAIGHT)

  IS PROVEN!

  THIS METHOD EXCLUDES THE SUBWAY APPS CRASH AND ALL INCOMPATIBILITIES REST WITH ALL PROGRAMS EXECUTABLES AND GAMES!

• HP envy 14-2090eo: can I use the same drivers for windows 8 and 8.1

  When I check in drivers which operating systems there are drivers available for my Hp Envy 14-2090eo, it says Windows 8 (64-bit) and Windows 7 (64-bit), "and im currently using Windows 7 64 bit" but does that mean the drivers to support these 2 Windows 8 and 8.1 of Windows operating systems, said in a different way "» : are the same drivers for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1?

  Best regards from hpenvy1

  Hello:

  Your model has the AMD/Intel switchable graphics.

  It is unlikely that the W8 AMD graphics driver will work on W8.1.

  Normally, you can use some of the drivers W7/W8 on W8.1, but the graphics is very doubtful - not switchable graphics anyway.

  You can run the windows 8.1 upgrade wizard and see what it reports.

• Code 80070241 in Windows update and "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file" when you try to run any program.

  Windows Update has appeared today when we started one of our machines, informing us that there are some installed updates. After reviewing the updates, we clicked on the "Install now" button, and immediately, it failed with the above error code.

  I tried to run regedit a reason unrelated, and it came with a dialog box error with "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file. A recent hardware or software change might be installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged or maybe it's a malicious software from an unknown source. »

  After researching here and elsewhere on google and did not find anything suitable, put us in the Win7 disk, recovery tools and tried to go back to a previous system restore point (3 days).

  The restoration went well, restarted, but the problem persists.

  Then, we just tried to install anti-malware software, but when trying to run the installer, we get a different error message indicating 'ShellExecuteEx failed; Code 577 "and then the same message on the verification of the digital signature.

  The computer is running fine all yesterday and has worked very well since just after the new year when he has been upgraded to Windows 7. No material changes have been made, and no software changes were made by users in the course of last week.

  The computer is an AMD Athlon II X 4 with 4 GB of RAM on a motherboard Asus M4A78-EM, linking a 64 GB SSD, with a 250 GB drive SATA data/programs. GPU is a Nvidia 260, and it has a CD and DVD player as well. It is connected to our router using the gigabit ethernet interface motherboards.

  It was under windows 32 - bit XP SP3 up just after the new year. When we put in place the new SSD to replace a hard drive older than we have did a new install of XP (slipstreamed with SP3) and then used the upgrade 32-bit W7 Home premium DVD version to upgrade the system. Since then, the system runs flawlessley.

  On the machine is MS office XP, Firefox 3.6.3, AVG 8.5 and a few games such as the Turbine DDO.

  The main user account used to try to solve these problems and to run Windows Update and try installing programs is a member of the Administrators group.

  Firefox works fine, serve, and he plays the games installed very well also. AVG reports to date, with no problems and has detected no threat.

  However, try to view the registry with regedit, or start Viewer event or compmgmt.msc that all do appear the message "cannot verify the digital signature.

  ***************************************************

  Can anyone offer an opinion on what might be wrong with this facility please, and how we could do to solve?

  Cannot run chkdsk/scandisk as he bought the message "cannot verify the digital signature" etc etc.

  This morning, the machine began to behave differently - stop playing back badly, refused to start Device Manager, open Control Panel correctly etc.

  So, I reset the BIOS to boot from the CD-ROM, slapped XP SP3 in reinstalled, then upgraded to Win 7 again.

  Still have no idea what caused the problem, but it seems to be gone now - reinstalled the same applications, AV / programs anti-malware, games, etc and everything seems to go fine now.

  * shrug *.

• Windows Vista and especially performance issue with M/B AsRock P4i45GV R5.0

  4 years ago, I bought AsRock P4i45GV-M/B 5.0 R, with Intel Pentium 4 processor with 2.40 GHz, 1 MB of L2 Cache.

  I have installed Windows Vista, since Intel 82845 G onbaord graphics does not support Windows Vista, I havd to installed an add - in AGP card. I installed NVIDIA GeForce FX 5500 and I also tried NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200, but my system does not at all. It's really slow.

  Is this due to add - on card AGP?

  I installed 2 GB of RAM, which is the maximum amount of RAM my M/B can support.

  I also tried with Windows 7, but it works worse than Windows Vista on my PC.

  Please, help me to boost the performance of my system. I don't want to go back to Windows XP.

  The problem may be because my M/B does not support Windows Vista and higher?

  The processor and the graphcis card are old and not the fastest.

  Buy a new basic system of AMD (Athlon II X 2/X 3, at least 2 GB of DDR3 RAM, a mainbaord with AMD 880 G chipset (integrated graphics card), you can use the old HARD disc), it is not too expensive, but gives you a boost huge performance.

• Very slow - Window 7, 266 mHz i7, Geforce 9800 GTx graphics card - computer was reformat hard drive, reloaded windows 7 and without other installed programs/games.

  My computer is running very slowly - i7 (quad) 266 Mhz and Geforce 9800 GTX graphics card.  I had this computer for about a year.  The problems seemed to start about 3 months when I started to play a game - Empire Total war with Steam.  The computer ran more slow and more slowly, gradually.  I tried all the clean disk, speed up programs, he worked once for a few days and then become very slow.  Finally, I backed up my files and reformat the hard drive and reloaded windows 7.  My computer has nothing loaded except windows 7 and is always very slow! Hardware issues? Help, please.

  Set of utilities to test for computer HARDWARE manufacturers:

  Note: If you are OverClocking or use an automatic overclocking or BIOS features, energy saving
  Start by disabling: Intel EIST, Turbo Mode, Cool and pretty
  and fall at the speed of stock as a starting point.

  Disconnect the other internal hard drives and external USB devices.
  Look for any loose hard drive power or cables SATA, graphics card or other power cables.

  CPU ID (CPUZ): http://www.CPUID.com/cpuz.php
  Watch the clock speed of the CPU under various conditions of loading
  (when using speed step technology Intel EIST).
  #1 Note:
  CPU - ID has two tabs (memory and SPD) that indicates the actual speed of the memory and 'SPD' tab displays the nominal speeds
  for each memory location is full.
  #2 Note:
  COMPARE the two values, the actual speed should not exceed the rated speed of your memory.

  Prime95: Displays your actual speed of the processor when using CPU ID under a heavy load.
  http://www.Mersenne.org/freesoft/
  It's a stand alone .exe file contained in an archive .zip.
  Simply choose to run the 'stress test' option for 3 hours or more.
  If your PC can pass this test, your memory and CPU
  are very good (close the housing cover in order to maintain adequate ventilation)

  Core Temp:
  The temperature of each core of the processor.
  Note: For the overclockers using stock radiator and cooling fan Intel/AMD, you can expect a temperature range of
  35 to 40 ° C at idle and 60-65 c max when running Prime95.
  http://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/

  -----------------------------------------------------------------------

  Also: Try running Memtest86 +: it runs from a floppy disk or CD, you must remove or
  confirm whether your one or more of your sticks of memory are bad or the values of the SPD in the BIOS are correct.
  Let it run for as long as you can: 2,4,6,8 or several hours (at least 3 full passes), if no errors at that time then your ram is OK.

• Questions of HDCP with Hyper V and AMD video drivers

  Hello

  I bought a legitimate copy of Windows 8 Pro and have acquired two films through video, I also have a Netflix Xbox account. Whenever I try to view purchased videos or play a movie through Netflix, I get the following error.

  After much research, I understand that it may be caused by a combination of different things.

  • AMD video drivers
  • Hyper V
  • Windows Media Player/Xbox Video bug
  • Bug in Windows 8

  Here's my computer specification

  

  

  As you can see I have the latest driver installed, I also tested video playback of these applications on all previous versions of the video driver. I need also Hyper V and Windows 8 (as what) for work so these things can not be compromised.  I also opened messages in the following forums so please do not try and direct me to someone else.

  Xbox

  Hyper V

  AMD

  Netflix

  I had the problem as well. I solved it by uninstalling Hyper-v.  Not a great solution because it is the reason why I went to Windows 8 Pro.

  It's a big problem. Another work is about http://digitalmediaphile.com/index.php/2012/12/16/a-fix-for-wmc8-hdcp-hyper-v-video-display-conflict/ (I wrote this for WMC), but it applies to any other protected content.

  Of course, if you run these programs inside of a virtual machine, it does not help.

• Envy 17 3010eg: upgrade to Windows 8 and update Bios: no switchable graphics and other problems

  Hello

  I'm of the Germany, but I'll do my best to write this in English.

  The product name and number: HP Envy 17 3010eg {information}

  Operating system: Windows 8 Pro 64-bit

  Drivers: everything up to date

   

  Long story short,

  I just wanted to upgrade the pre-installed Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit to the new Windows 8 Pro 64-bit.

  So I waited until the driver for Windows 8 support has been completed by HP.

  This month, I noticed that HP has released a graphic driver for Windows 8.

  Happy as I was I installed Windows 8 immediately via upgrade function.

  I installed all the missing drivers.

  * Update Bios to F.08*

  I noticed that I had to upgrade my Bios to version F.08 to install new graphics drivers. I did the upgrade and installation of the driver.

  BUT after the update to the version of the Bios the laptop only F.08 recognized the AMD graphics card. The integrated Intel HD 3000 graphics card had disappeared!

  Even after installing the new graphics driver, the Intel card is still missing in the 'Device Manager' of Windows 8.

  The battery life is now about 1 1/2 to 2 hours maximum because the laptop always uses the card AMD.

  So I looked in the 'new' Bios, but I have not found a way to change the graphics card. So I think that there is only a 'software' switch to do so.

  I have installed "AIDA64"and look under "Graphics".» The graphics card Intel HD 3000 has been mentioned as 'disabled'.

  Nice, but I have no idea how to turn it on again.

  So I re-installed Windows 8. This time, I did a completely clean install. With the same results.

  So, I switched to Windows 7, and there you go. Two graphics cards are displayed in "Device Manager" and the switchable graphics feature works perfectly (! even with the new version of the Bios F.08!).

  * Tested in Bios Version F.09*

  Yesterday, I noticed another Bios Update. This time in version F.09.

  So, I updated the Bios with Windows 7 installed.

  Everything went well (I thought!).

  Once, I've done a completely new installation of Windows 8 to take a peek, if Intel HD 3000 card will be recognized this time.

  BUT without success...

  So, I thought that the problem could only be Windows 8, because Windows 7 works perfectly.

  * Problems with Bios Version F.09*

  BUT then, I noticed a strange behaviour of my laptop:

  -proximity sensor no longer works

  -the keyboard backlight cannot be (DIS-) activated

  -the brightness of the backlight is half as usual

  -internal fans are going crazy-> they accelerate without reason (laptop is idle) and won't slow down until I do a re-boot

  * Version of the Bios downgraded to F.05*

  So, I spent to the version of the Bios to the older Version available: F05

  And I was a little shocked by the result.

  Windows 8 acknowledged the Intel HD 3000 graphics card again!

  The problem is the Bios!

  Then, I upgraded the version of Bios version to see which version of the cause of the problem:

  Œuvres F05

  Œuvres F.06

  F.08 does not work

  F.09 does not work

   

  So I decided to stay with the version F.06

  BUT to install the new Windows graphic 8 driver you need the version of Bios F.08 (min.).

  I installed the driver anyway...

  I found myself with a black screen... I had to reinstall Windows completely.

  Yet more long story short,

  I ended up using Windows 8 Pro 64 - bit with the graphics card AMD only.

  I also updated the Bios (back) to the version F.08 dispelled the problems with the version of the Bios F.09 I mentioned.

  So for the moment I am absolutely no idea what the problem might be.

  The support has not yet heard of these problems and I have not found any website which explains the same problem.

  Every posting, I found explains that the AMD card is not recognized by Windows 8 but Intel HD card.

  Someone else got the same problems?

• screen goes black and moves randomly please explain answer in detail as I use windows 10 and I can not understand the answers already given

  screen turns black and moves randomly when using most of the tools of photoshop.  I use windows 10 and cannot follow the above.

  Hi Nodstown,

  Greetings.

  • What version of PS do you use?
  • Mac or Windows, which version?
  • There may be several reasons for this.
    • Preferences corrupt.
    • Obsolete graphics drivers.
  • Solution
    • Try resetting the PS tools. (See screenshot)
    • Try resetting the PS preferences - to restore preferences quickly by using a keyboard shortcut: press and hold Alt + Ctrl + Shift (Windows) or Option + command + shift (Mac OS) when you start Photoshop. You are prompted to delete the current settings.
  • • Update graphics card drivers
    • AMD - AMD Catalyst 15.10 Beta Driver for Windows
    • NVIDIA - drivers | GeForce
  • Also, try opening the PS, then go to preferences - performance and uncheck CPU chart use
  • Now, restart PS and then try to use tools again.

• My computer is Windows Vista and I pay for Photo Shop CS6, but it will not download. Can I download the CS5 and how?

  My computer is Windows Vista and I pay for Photo Shop CS6, but it will not download. Can I download the CS5 and how?

  Photoshop cs5 is designed to:

  Windows XP with SP3

  Windows Vista Home Premium, Business, Ultimate or enterprise with SP 1 (P2 S recommended)

  Windows 7

  Photoshop cs6 is designed to:

  Processor Intel Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon 64

  Windows XP with SP3 or Windows 7 with SP1

  CS6 applications support also Windows 8 and Windows 8.1.

  * Video features are not supported on 32-bit Windows systems.

  * 3D features are disabled and some features of mercury from the improved graphics engine may not work with less than 512 MB of VRAM. Read the Help section.

  If you just buy CS6, you might be able to get a refund, but Adobe sells more software CS5. Is it possible to upgrade your computer to make it compatible? Here are the system requirements for photoshop:

• PP CC blocks - perhaps in connection with Mercury Playback and AMD / HD6950

  I had a lot of instability with my set-up.

  i73770K - 32 GB of RAM - HD6950 2 GB - Windows 8

  Computer has been and is very stable in all but the first Pro CC.

  I have clean re-installed Windows 8 and Adobe CC.

  I'm going to regularize with beta drivers 13.4 and 13.6.

  I think it's directly related to mercury reading because when I disable GPU acceleration and will software only, it does not crushed, but even on this pretty good system, it will not play well and it is a bit slow hogging all my CPU unless I use a lot of deception low display resolution.

  I have projects that threat, so I need to get to where I can change something soon.

  I suppose that here are my options:

  $1 $$ buy a more recent video as a HD7950 card. Maybe a new card would help? Or maybe the AMD drivers are a few sketches or support open CL is simply too new?

  2. $$$ buy a Nvidia card. Is there evidence that the Nvidia support is more stable and more mature?

  3. change on my MacBook Pro with HD6750M. It will simply not be as smooth and quick that my office with portable fans will turn off and all that. I prefer to use my beasty office.

  4. $$$ bail and just go FCPX on my Macbook Pro. It seems ridiculous because I am paid upwards to the CC workflow.

  I'd go with 2.  Reported problems with the latest nVidia 320 driver, but using an older driver 314 it works petty darn good.
