Yesterday, I attempted to update my Lenovo's ATI Mobility Radeon HD3470 video driver and Catalyst Control Center. Things sort of went wrong and I cannot use any of the ATI components. I had to use the useless Integrated Intel Graphics which just plain sucks because I couldn't play much games with it.
Today, I woke up at 1100 and continue working on it. I was thinking perhaps I applied the wrong driver. So I uninstall video driver and Catalyst control center, ran a drive sweep, download another one and reinstall it. It cannot work. I installed it but in fact, nothing was even installed. This kept going on for like 2 hours until I found a website that I can mod the desktop video driver and use for my laptop. Finally, it worked, Catalyst Control Center is working but not the video card because the driver is incompatible with my VGA adapter.
I kept searching for a solution until I uninstalled all ATI components, ran BIOS and disabled the function of letting the OS to detect Switchable Graphics and ran the laptop on discrete. I installed the modded drivers and rebooted. Finally at 1800, after 7 hours of frustration. It works and better still, I managed to update the video driver. However, there is not much FPS increases which disappoints me. Now, I do not want to enable switchable graphics because I do not want to touch it anymore since it finally works. XD
