HP Pavilion g6-2160se Notebook PC
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello HP Community

i would like to ask about my Graphics Driver issues on my Hp Pavilion G6-2160se Notebook 
INFO: I Have two graphics driver Intel HD Graphics 4000 And AMD Radeon HD 7600M ( i am not sure about the amd)
i've been having issues with my AMD Radeon HD card i am very confused about this matter and i searched about my model number on the HP page and it said my AMD Radeon driver is 7670M but the one that i had installed is AMD Radeon HD 7600M ( i got the AMD Radeon HD 7600M driver from the HP software and drivers page for windows 8 since there is no windows 10 for my laptop ) and if i try to install AMD Radeon HD 7670M it tells me its not the correct driver for the gpu and when i use the AMD adrenalin software which is used for automatically detecting and installing AMD gpu drivers it tells me that i have a AMD gpu driver but it doesnt support this feature and when i check my driver on the AMD gpu page it doesnt show up on the drivers the closest drivers that i found on the AMD Radeon 7000M Series TAB are AMD Radeon HD 7610M and AMD Radeon HD 7590M there is no AMD Radeon 7600M even in there, and im honestly not sure if the AMD Radeon HD 7600M works or not but i disassembled my laptop and checked my motherboard and i saw that the gpu is actually there and  not trying to install a random driver on my laptop, and the Dedicated VRAM of my AMD card (which is 1GB of DDR3) doesnt show on windows 10 (The Dedicated VRAM that shows on windows 10 is only 32MB for the intel gpu)  but thing is it shows on operating system likes Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 (It shows as 1280MB VRAM) and the amd driver is installed automatically on every operating system i use on my laptop but only on windows 10 it sometimes changes when i uninstall and reinstall it shows it as "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter" and when i try to update the microsoft display adapter driver which shows instead of my amd driver nothing happens and it says i have the latest version already installed on my System for the microsoft basic display adapter and my Current operating system Uses a Windows 10 Home 64-bit version and my cpu is i5-3210M with Intel HD Graphics 4000 Integrated graphics with 8GB of RAM installed and a 500GB SSD Hard Drive i need help and i have installed the latest BIOS version [Insyde H20 Version 03.72.32F.27] for my laptop as far as im aware and another thing is when i check DXDIAG (My directX version is the latest which is 12) it shows that i have 6 Tabs System,Display,Render,Sound 1,Sound 2,Input and i use a external VGA monitor
in the display tab it shows my intel HD graphics 4000 but in the Render tab it shows my AMD driver, and when i try to use Driver checking and updating programs they give me a "2022 version" of my amd driver which doesnt even exist on the AMD page and when i install it gives me the version 30.something {i apologize i forgot the number}
and the AMD catalyst doesnt even work the Switchable graphics option disappears from the desktop settings.


i currently have my AMD driver uninstalled as im too worried to do anything because im not very well versed in these types of problems which is why im seeking help to fix it.

If there are any unclear bits or inaccurate statements id be more than happy to explain them just to get help.
