Hi:

 

You can only use the HP W7 driver for the AMD/Intel switchable graphics that originally came with your notebook.

 

Never try to update the driver.

 

This package provides the AMD High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver and Catalyst Control Center for supported notebook models that are running a supported operating system. For notebooks with switchable graphics modes, this packageincludes drivers for both graphics processing units (GPUs). Switchable graphics enable users to switch between a power-saving graphics mode (normally used under battery power) and a high-performance graphics mode.

Roll back the driver or uninstall the driver. Which one i have to do?

HP Recommended

You can try rolling back the driver first.

 

If that doesn't work, you will have to uninstall it.

I try both of it and it still showing blackscreen after i restart

The only other suggestion I can offer, would be to reinstall W7 if you can, and start fresh.
