Sam, then how will u install drivers for the integrated as well as discrete graphic cards?
Does the package contain same driver and installs for both the cards?
In intel+nvidia laptops, we had to install drivers seperately for intel and nvidia cards.. and optimus works flawlessly.
Here, for intel+amd ones.. the intel driver is embedded inside the package but in real terms, the amd driver takes control over it for switchable graphics to work.
So, i can't download the amd and intel drivers seperately.. then install and see if switchable is working like in optimus? 7670m btw

AMD catalyst drivers support both discrete as well as APU graphics. so single or dual works without any problem. in your case, remove all traces of catalyst & Intel driver and try leascat drivers. then switchable graphics should work (you may still have to force some games to run using AMD gpu)

nope. never. try the latest one (based on 13.3 beta). and looking at the rate at which AMD is forcing out beta only driver, nobody other than AMD employees can give a correct guess. in my desktop as well as laptop i am still using 13.1 stable driver.

\../ yea i am completely broke now. i had a miniature heart attack on morning after comparing two models and their prices

1. G6 2314AX = 32990
2. G6 2313AX = 37990
difference is now 5k only for A10 and A8 and i wonder how this is justified. Buddy i am filling lot of pain in my heart.

Re: HP Pavilion G6 20xx/22xx/23xxAX - powered by Trinity

Want to check something with the community before I take my 6 months old 2005ax to the service center.

Issue: On a clean install, 13.1 drivers, dual-mode disabled and low settings, I can't play even basic games for longer than 15 mins as it hibernates due to overheating (Error 90D). The game being Antichamber - a puzzle based mindf**ker - also happens with portal 1, forget about heavier games. The heat vents are not covered.

Survey: Those of you who can play games (some even Crysis 3 :eek:) for longer than that, please answer the following -
1. How old is your laptop?
2. Can you game long hours on low-med settings with/without cooling pads? The laptop intakes air from the side vents and expels from the bottom ones so can cooling pads really make a difference?
3. Has anyone facing the same issue got it fixed by servicing (cleaning/changing thermal paste)?
4. What's the temperature in your place/city. In mine it's hovering around 40°c but the same issue in 4°c last winter as well, so don't think that's important but just to know.

Thank you.

i have not made recovery disc, but had used hp recovery software on windows 7 . HP 2005AX here.

@Bhupati man i too have a 8 months old lappie , i never use it without my cooler it really does a gret job, but some days back i used hp recovery to factory state, and installed 13.1 driver. i had felt never b4 hot air blown out of vents on dirt3, but just checked for probably 10 minute just ran the bench and played a game. but i had no other issues only this time, may be its normal but i had not noticed it before

Guys:- i have a display related question.

When i plug the laptop to my lcd tv via hdmi. the display properties give me 4 options.

1) Duplicate Display.
2) extend Display.
3) use display on device 1 (laptop screen)
4) use display on device 1 (laptop screen)

Now when i try use duplicate display. it only streams at 768p. how do i duplicate the display at my lcd's native resolution of 1080p.

Re: HP Pavilion G6 20xx/22xx/23xxAX - powered by Trinity

I couldn't get the unifl 13.1 whql driver with signed certificate to work, so after a hiatus i got back my stock driver to work. Does anyone know what amdkmdap is?? and why is it showing under video renderer options besides direct3d hal under graphic device for an old online game? Previously it used to show as intel hd 4000 in place of amdkmdap.
