Hey all
Reading all this mantle related threads got me going to upgrade my drivers to the latest versions (i know mantle isnt yet out, but wanted to test and improve my driver install skills).
Can you can provide me a step by step guide to install 13.11 beta 5 or any later driver.
This because i have tried 13.11 but for some reason it doesnt install any AMD display drivers and checking via control panel still shows my old 13.8 beta drivers (from july 2013). It only installs gaming evolved app and catalyst manager.
I have installing it without uninstalls, with standard control panel AMD full uninstall, and even uninstalling and deleting AMD folders AMD/ATI registry entries manually. But so far 13.11 keeps installing only these two features and nothing else.
Is this normal? If not how should i do it.
So far i havent touched my Intel IGP drivers, i have a very old version from DEC 2012.
It also seems i have messed up my drivers a bit, and now i get some error messages when starting my laptop unplugged.
any help or hints will be highly appreciated. Before posting i made a half hour search, but it seems i am unable to find any threads about this.

Id recommend installing the catalyst 13.11b4 drivers fist and then updrade to b5. The b5 doesn't seem to install all the settings in Catalyst for switchable graphics, but I think b4 does. Usually if the driver install is the only thing that fails installation, I can boot into safe mode and direct Windows to the driver from device manager. Usually the drivers can be found in C:/AMD/'forlder named by driver version'/. After rebooting out of safe mode, the driver should be installed

When the installation doesn't install any graphic drivers, it's mostly that your card isn't recognised(i.e. using desktop card installer) Are you sure you downloaded the mobility beta? Have you tried the drivers from leekm? I know most people aren't convinced about his "improvements" over stock drivers, but at least he modified the inf so the cards always get recognised.. I never had any trouble installing any driver from him.
My driver install is always like this:
1. uninstall intel + amd drivers through control panel
2. reboot
3. run driver fusion to clean leftovers
4. reboot
5. install latest (beta) intel drivers
6. reboot
7. install amd drivers
8. reboot and done -
Thanks
I have not tried leekm drivers. I always download drivers via amd site and select notebook drivers, Radeon Hd series, and win7 64 bit (its a bit different right now anyway).
Right now i went back to 13.8 beta wich works great on my rig (and i have the download in my PC), i still have gaming evolved app (it doesnt uninstall with the rest of amd drivers), so i will stick with it until i have some time play around with the drivers.
No idea how to get 13.11 beta4, since in AMD you only have beta5 available.
Where do i get the latest intel drivers now?
catalyst 13.11 beta5 install
