Hello

You said to install Ethernet, but I can't see this on the driver page.

What is the ethernet called on the driver page?


Thanks

Also

Can you please let me know how to boot from an external Hard Disk.

I can't get it to recognise the it

I have changed the boot sequence in the bios to boot from HD< but it doens't worrk,

It won't recognise the external DVD drive when starting, but it will recognise it after starting.

I can't get it to boot from USB also, as it won't recognise it.

Thanks

Hi:

You will have to get the ethernet and card reader drivers from Realtek.

Ethernet:  3rd one on the list.

Card Reader:  First one on the list.

As far as booting is concerned...you can only boot from one of the USB 2 ports.

If that doesn't work, unfortunately, I won't be able to help you with that issue.

I assume you have gone into the BIOS and have already enabled legacy mode (which should disable secure boot), correct?

The PC cannot boot from a DVD nor will it install or run W7 with secure boot enabled.

You're very welcome.

Hi

Thanks for yuor help but I cannot find the correct driver for display

When I install the display driver you sent, then it looks ok, but as soon as the Stream reastarts, it goes back to not working. Everything is too big.

Do you have a display driver that'll work for this machine?

I'm running Win7

Thanks

Unfortunately, if the driver from AMD didn't work then you will have to revert to a supported operating syste.

You can try the W8.1 driver from the support page, but I doubt it will work on W7.

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 package includes 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. If high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) video output is supported, this package also installs the HDMI Audio Driver.
