    Hello!.

    I had the following situation. On my laptop Acer 8935G burned original video card ATI 4670. After reading a few topics on this forum I decided to purchase HD 6770M red. The video card came in the right color and I installed it instead of damaged. The laptop with no problems found this card. And then the problems began.

    1. A blue screen appears when you install any drivers other than the latest beta version (Radeon Software Crimson Edition Beta 16.2.1).

    2. The system continues to run on the integrated graphics card. If you switch the BIOS mode to a discrete card (in advanced settings), the computer starts, but the screen shows nothing.

    3. If you start the game, it is displayed in the processes, but the screen remains the desktop. You can safely open other applications and Windows, but the game will run in the background. However, if you run any video-it works fine.

    4. When checking the performance of the graphics card by third-party software - everything is normal. The software shows the advanced technical characteristics of the graphics card, its temperature.

    After installing the video card also reinstalled windows.

    Do you have any ideas/guesses about this problem?

    Thanks in advance
