    Not really certain where the benefit of this driver is not to mention the source is rather sketchy!

    Samsung seems to be limited to vendor, discriminatory.

    Everything install fine though. Can´t it be the intel drivers that prevent your mod from working ?

    I'm on seven...

    EDIT : I installed Intel HD 4000 3225 drivers. So first of all I had to uninstall the samsung driver because he wouldn't let me install the driver, and then after installing it I lost the switchable graphics shortcut, and i don't have access to any options in the ATI utility.

    On windows start ATI card is always Disabled, i have to enable and disable it manualy to get it to go on normally.

    Finally, I have 20fps in game instead of 100 so i guess its using the intel card. OC application are no help Sapphire trixx keep telling me that ULPS is enabled, and the clocks are 0/0. Little improvement, i can now launch Gpu -z

    EDIT 2 : Started Tweaking around registry values, by using the inf files, no significant results except making the control center pop up faster. Figure out how to fix the display names of the graphic cards, by searching if Samsung was checking the card name to make switchable graphics. That's not the case.
    Saved the registry after installing Intel Base Drivers and after AMD Base drivers. Hoping that looking at those keys will explain why I have to disable and re-enable the HD8750 to get it to Work. And that I will understand how to get the swichable graphics menu, and so be able to switch between two cards.

    Some values are interesting in the drivers.
    Intel :
    PrimaryDriver (1 - 0 )
    AMD:
    Auto Switch cards
    Block Switch
    Enable Overdrive.

    Also, I noticed that samsung clearly wrote what they modified in the driver files.


    Also about drivers, you just have to edit the cfg config file in the folders to get the ability to update or change language, you can change the style of the window though its useless. Changing the bitmaps int the folder allows you to make your own ads.

    The second one.

    I'm still not sure as to what advantage this driver brings over the stock one. :/
