Hello!
I successfully installed Windows 7 on my HP 245 G9 laptop with an AMD Athlon Silver 3050U processor. The installation process was challenging, but I managed to bypass all restrictions, including USB and NVMe support.
However, I encountered a problem: official drivers for the integrated AMD Radeon (Vega 3) graphics are only available for Windows 10 and 11. Without a proper driver, the system uses a standard VGA adapter, resulting in no hardware acceleration and reduced performance.
Question:
Is there any way to find or patch AMD drivers to work with Windows 7? Maybe someone has experience running similar drivers on older systems? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
