HP Pavilion dv7t-6c00 CTO Quad Edition Entertainment Notebook PC
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I need the display adapter/driver for my AMD Radeon HD 6700M driver for DV7t 6c00 A1L97AV from 2012.

 

The INTEL Graphics HD 3000 is also disabled.

 

I bought the laptop in 2012.  A month ago, the SSD and HD drives failed.  I bought a new SSD (max size) and installed Win 7 then upgraded to Win 10. The issue is that I never backed up my drivers. HP does not have these legacy drivers on the website.  The Microsoft basic driver sucks.  Max display is 1280x1024 vs. 1920 x 1080 (I think from AMD).  I don't recall.  All pictures are distorted now.  Watching a movie sucks. I also can't control the brightness of the screen.

 

I found a couple of drivers on the net, but each crashed the laptop upon installation.  In each case, I needed to reinstall windows.  I should have downloaded the driver package from HP years ago for safe keeping. In any event, HP must have these but they won't share.
