Hi @mazak,

 

I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. 

They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. 
Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. 

Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers and case details).

Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forum.

Hi Mazak,

 

Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP Pavilion g7-1358sa Notebook and needing help with switchable graphics. Here is a link to drivers page. It shows me that you do have switchable graphics. I recommend uninstalling the drivers and then going to the link to install the latest right from HP.  Here is a link to the Hp driver page.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks.

Hi

 

Here is a link to your  drivers for both graphic cards.

Please uninstall what is in your graphics drivers list or in device manager. Restart the computer.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks.

I know, I've been many times there. Also after removing old drivers tried to install each of them. The thing is, that even if there are not any drivers - Device Manager see only one graphic adapter - VGA standard graphic card.
Is that OK?
When that AMD card should appear - switch on?
Only when some power plan is applied ?
What else from HP software is essential to see AMD card?

I would need the serial number. Please review the the HP Privacy Statement . Then send it to me in a private message.

Hi Mazak,

 

I would uninstall what you have listed in the device manager under graphics. Restart the computer. Tell me what is there after the restart?
