Install the AMD Proprietary fglrx Graphics driver - http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx

Install AMD APP SDK - http://developer.amd.com/tools/heterogeneous-computing/amd-accelerated-parallel-processing-app-sdk/

Run the samples in the AMD APP SDK, Look at the source code and you are on your way....

If in doubt, post here - The forum will help you out..

I am not getting my right driver.

I have installed vs 2008 and AMD APP SDK and trying to run sample "HelloWorld"  it telling "NO GPU device Found Set CPU as Default Device " what does it mean?

[himanshu_gautam]

Driver is necessary to run OpenCL on GPUs. If you only install AMD APP SDK, you will get the CPU runtime(but not GPU runtime).

You should select

Notebook Graphics as the Type of system you have.

Radeon HD Series as product family

Radeon HD 6xxxM as product

And relevent Operating System.

Hope it helps.

What is the driver that you installed?

As I can see from the driver download page, you have to select

1. Notebook Graphics

2. Radeon HD series

3. Radeon HD 6xxxM series

4. And then, your OS (with appropriate bitness)

Did the driver install succeed? Are you able to see the Catalyst Control Center (CCC) when you say,right-click on your desktop

when I click on display result to get driver it redirect me on this page now tell me what to do?

and one more thing whenever I install any graphics driver like 7XXX series my system display work as it as without problem I also install driver from my driver CD.but only display is working, During the installation process of driver it shows binding fail with Microsoft visual C++ 2010.

[himanshu_gautam]

Yes, thats the protocol.

Generic Notebook drivers are not compatible with all notebooks.

So, If you look at the web-page, it says the generic driver is not compatible with

"

Notebooks equipped with switchable graphics

• Toshiba® notebooks
• Sony® VAIO® notebooks
• Panasonic® notebooks

"

What is the notebook that you are using?

If you are not using any of the above, i would recommend you to download the verification tool and run it.

Probably, I am assuming that the tool will auto-download the driver after it finds out the compatibility.

I have Dell Inspiron N4110. I have tried all verification tool and auto downloader  but it is not working.

Can u tell me something for linux  Ubuntu 12.10 also.

[himanshu_gautam]

Can you elaborate more on what you mean by "it is not working"?

Is the driver installation failing? Please give more details. I can help you resolve your problem.
