vaio VPC-SE2 graphics drivers

I recently bought a sony vaio se2 and have a few questions.

Could someone tell me if there is a way to install the official amd drivers insted of the sony ones for the 6630m since they are pretty outdated (8.862.4.4000 / 22.12.2011).
I tried to deinstall the sony driver and use the one from amd.com. The problem is that it only installs the ccc but without the driver.

What im also interested in is, how often sony releases updates of their own graphic card drivers.

I hope someone can help me.

 

Well I believe your SE has switchable graphics right? Since it does, you can't just use the drivers from online. However, we do have a large community effort to create graphics drivers for this:

Also, how often does sony update drivers? Truth be told, don't expect it at all

 

Thank you very much for your answer. The thread looks pretty interesting. But since it seems they are more or less experimental" and that there is the danger to damage the system with those drivers. Maybe sony releases new drivers with the release of windows 8. That would seem most likely, right?

 

Hey redroom, I have a first generation SE and have been running experimental drivers for 2 months now and haven't had a single problem.

 

Thanks for your response. Nice to hear that it works without problems.
I have no doubt that the drivers will work on the machine. Its just that i have read about a few (minor) bugs on various machine / graphics cards and i am a little bit worried about this whole DSE / YUV stuff (which i havent quite understood yet, i must admit) and what it can do to the system.
Like i said i consider to wait if sony releases new drivers for the upcoming new windows, which seems very likely to me (i hope so). The Vaio is the first sony notebook i own, and i have no idea how long the models are supported with new drivers and how often sony releases updates. Because Achusaysblessyou said i shouldnt be expecting new drivers at all im worried if sony will release any drivers for win8 at all.
