Problem whit GPU 7970M in my p170em

A few days ago bought a P170EM, install drivers downloaded from AMD 7970M clevo.com page because if downloaded from web site to try to install AMD.COM A MESSAGE appeared saying: NOT COMPATIBLE HARDWARE .. then download the 12.8 cataclism center from another page but does not work .. If I run a game says he uses the Intel GPU 3610qm .. in admin in windows device appears to have the best version of drivers .. but says Windows descativo this option present failures ..

someone help me to be taking my 7970m walking ..

thanks

 

please helpme

 

You have to do it differently than that.

First remove all the drivers you have using the amd driver remover or driver sweeper, which ever you want to use.

The reboot and install the drivers off of the disc. Don't reboot just yet. Install the 12.8s and click advanced. On the check list, pick only the display driver and the CCC.

Install and reboot. It worked for me, hopefully it will work for you. The 12.8s don't support the 7970m because they don't have an intel driver in them, so it can't see the 7970m. We have to do this in this backwards way for now.

 

Can you sendme the link to download drivers 12.8 the amd.com not works

 

This drivers works? AMD Catalyst 12.8 WHQL 64-bit download from Guru3D.com

 

there is one for mobility you can download check alineware m17x forum there should be there. Obviously, you messed up your drivers by installing 12.8 fully . I tell you why later but first thing first. un-install any mad driver from win. next, run driver sweeper in SAFE MODE (check amd then hit clean). after download clevo driver form clevo website and install. Now for ccc 12.8 , run it and choose custom installation. Untick all selected amd things to be installed by pressing de-select all (note: some of them can't be unticked which is ok leave them). Then select only amd displa driver and that is. Press install , it should run . The reason why we did this is because amd 7970m is customized according to different manufacture like alienware, msi , clevo , so every 7970m is different a little bit . Therefore , it would need special drivers by done manufacture to make driver work on their card (like clevo). by installing driver from amd using your method you are removing special component from old driver by clevo and installing amd driver which will not recognize your GPU. by method posted here, you are only installing amd display driver buy you are not completely removing clevo drivers so the special things stays untouched (you are only removing and installing amd display driver) . FYI, amd display driver is on how to run gpu with video games so actually this is the one we need for fixing if there are problem with running video games

 

You can't install the drivers from the main AMD website because the drivers for the P150EM/P170EM, I believe, are specialized due to Enduro and having the iGPU. The ones on AMD website are generic, and usually just for their desktop components. Also, with Enduro, the compability checker WILL NOT pick up the 7970m for whatever reason. Just use the drivers from Clevo and you'll be fine

 

Is there a working 7970m driver for Windows 8 rtm that was just released? I have the P170EM with Enduro and I haven't found anything. I also haven't really found any conversation about it either.

 

but the problem is I have no cd with drivers from AMD in the cd there are only drivers of other features and intel GPU. Detects the pc but does not work ..

What is the problem, and what isn't working? Your 7970m is being recognized. You are fine. If it is using the Intel GPU then change the .exe in CCC to high performance.

 

notice how his GPU and memory clock both show 0, something is wrong

 

when I try to open CCC, appears this ad

exact something is not right .. may be a hardware damage? is possible that the GPU is damaged?

does it still have warranty on it? contact the seller

 

Can you list out all the steps to remove the current drivers & install the latest ones?
Also, can you provide download links to the Intel & AMD drivers (if not from the CLEVO website)

 

try leshcat driver

LESHCATLABS.NET

 

I tried several ways and progresses a bit ... Windows detects the card but also installed grafics INTEL HD 4000 ... The CCC works but it will not let me see the screen options as resolution etc. .. I can move that option from the intel Control panel .. if I open a game, says it is using Intel HD 4000, not used., 7970GB AMD .. GPUZ now shows more information about the GPU, but I think even missing data .. how do I only use AMD, not intel?

 

those clocks seems way too low. also did you go into catalyst center and do some settings?

 

Contact your reseller and demand a new GPU or a refund or something that should fix this! Something is terribly wrong

 

HI! Im newbbie here... but i can install OEM drievr of ati only a clean install of OS but you need install first intel vga driver then ati driver... Im really disapointed with sager the construction of this hibrid vga cards dont possible use only ATI ...

Sorry for my bad english..

Regards

 

You aren't setting the game to use the card in CCC. It's under switchable graphics.

 

can confirm to do? need to change the GPU? or is it a configuration issue?

 

Right click the desktop. It should be right under the graphics configure option.

 

I already set the high performance gaming and everything but still using INTEL grafics

 

You have to set it per individual game. I'm not talking about the laptop power options. If you did that, then I don't know. Maybe that particular game has issues with reading the 7970 over the Intel HD.

 

By the way on my p170em the "recent applications" pane shows nothing. This CCC is one of the worst programs I've ever used. I just have to ASSUME it memorized my settings. Because the ****ing AC adapter fried the first day and I'm waiting for a new one -no thanks to my reseller- I ordered from the US, all I can go by is a few hours of use, and I think I'm suffering from the same issue as the OP. HWinfo shows nothing about the dGPU, and no game seems to utilize it no matter what I do with CCC. I still haven't heard the dGPU fan power on.

 

There is a way to find a game like (Special OPS) which GPU is using ..

 

It clears the recent applications section every time you reboot. It should save the data, though. I haven't had any problems losing my settings.

Press "Browse," and find the directory the game is in and open the .exe file the game uses. An easy way to locate the directory is to launch the game, open the task manager via ctrl+shift+esc, click the "Processes" tab, right click the game.exe, open file location. With that location, go to CCC switchable graphics after exiting the game, and locate the .exe after clicking browse.

 

HOW CAN I NOW WHICH GPU IS USING ONE GAME? NOW IF IS USING AMD 7970m or Intel...And test the performance to now if is working correctly

Thanks...
