So I'm actually getting graphic drivers crashes while playing call of duty ghost...
Now wich drivers do I need to download? Had problems with this in the past the integraded graphics card drivers has already been disabled by the previous update drivers I needed to play rage so I don't care about that.
Is it safe to install this driver over my current one: AMD Catalyst
Or do I need another one?
Dell doesn't support any custom drivers anymore. And auto detect by amd is not an option because hardware is not campatible for detection. It was the same way in the past.
So I need the right drivers and manually update. So I don't want to mess this up...
Thanks in advance for your help![]()

I'm running the latest beta drivers for BF4 and they installed just fine. I run on windows 8.1 though so it might not work on windows 7.

How did you install them? I'm having all kinds of frame rate issues. I downloaded the 13.11 mobility driver install utility. When I run, it says I cannot download the drivers due to compatibility issues. I'm on windows 7 64bit.
Edit: I got the 13.11 drivers installed but my frame rate is still nearly unplayable. What settings are you using? I turned off the steam overlay as I read it may interfere. Everything is set as low as possible or off. This is extremely frustrating. -

you sure you aren't running on the intel graphics card?

Edit: after messing around I get about 13FPS at 1920x1080 minimum settings, 21FPS at 1280x1024 and 21FPS at 1024x768 and 22FPS at 800x600? How is it so dramatically different than COD:BO2? -

Check your temps? There shouldn't be that bit of a difference.

In case anyone else reads this I found a semi-solution. With the patch this morning I set the game to 1600x900 with all of the settings on low. Also set it to windowed (boarder less) and the task priority normal. For some reason that clears up all of the stutter and raises the FPS a great deal. It still swings wildly, but I get 90-40fps now. Clearly COD:G and maybe the drivers need some serious updating. Game looks like crap and the massive FPS swings are annoying, but it's playable.

Had to disable a few options in the graphics settings. But no resolution changes or setting everything on low.
By doing this I get above 50 fps most of the time.

I'm running the latest drivers (13.12) on Windows 8.1 and Call of Duty: Ghosts keeps freezing up requiring a restart of my laptop. I have the priority set to normal in task manager and Image quality set to Ultra with all other settings on normal and with AA and DoF turned off. Has anyone had any success with this title?
EDIT: Multiplayer works perfectly (no lagg, no freezing, no crashes), but singleplayer crashes after about 15 seconds of gameplay. Any advice? -

Ewww is a COD title.
humor aside have you tried another driver version? That's probably the problem. I don't have the game so I can't verify that its consistent though.
