IMPORTANT! When submitting a bug report against this driver, please make sure to include the following tag into the bug report description field using this format:

FORUM-DriverVersion-Username. For example, if your username was GAMER56 and the driver version was 25.4.1, use the tag FORUM-25-4-1-GAMER56

Has this been fixed for all laptops?

• After completing a driver upgrade on certain laptops, users may experience intermittent failures for the integrated camera to start. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to use the AMD Cleanup Utility for Windows® and use our previous recommended driver, available here. (25.3.1 and 25.3.2)

Because I don't have a laptop with those processors and it was happening to me:

• Failure to detect integrated camera may be observed after driver installation using factory reset option on some Ryzen™ AI Max and Max+ series products.

And I don't want to install them only to see it fail and have to go back to 24.12.1 with the AMD Clean Utility and install the screen colour profiles again.

Laptop: Lenovo Legion 7 Gen 7 AMD Advantage (2022)

CPU: Ryzen 9 6900HX

GPU: Radeon RX 6850M XT

I dont see an option for FSR 4 in Adrenaline Software for

• The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion® Remastered

only for Monster Hunter Wilds

[Qoojo]

Do you have 9000 series gpu?

"AMD FSR 4 Available Now

Available exclusively on the AMD Radeon™ RX 9000 series graphics cards"

[digibluez]

i got 9070xt, why would i even ask.

it is not available setting in ADRENALINE control panel like in any other FSR4 game i have installed, have you even looked yourself?

it says enable and status active for them in the overlay, in this games it does not 

[Paranoid_Andr01d]

Same here. In-game options say FSR3 and Adrenaline overlay does not show FSR4 enabled for Oblivion Remastered (Steam version). FSR4 option is enabled in Adrenaline Graphics settings.

[Khanoxxx]

Hello, you need to follow these step for FSR 4 and it can be verified ALT+R to see the statut indicator FSR 4 "Active"

Enabling FSR 4

Get started with AMD FSR 4 easily by following the steps below.

1. Ensure you have one or more of the FSR 4 supported titles installed on your system
2. Open AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition and click on the “Gaming” tab
3. Click on the “Graphics” sub tab

1. AMD FSR 4 can be enabled two different ways from this screen –
   1. Via HYPR-RX one-click preset: This enables AMD FSR 4 in games that support it, along with a host of other features designed to elevate a user’s gaming experience
   2. Via the “FidelityFX Super Resolution 4 AI Upscale” toggle: directly enable FSR 4 manually, allowing you to choose other software features to enable if desired (Radeon™ Anti-Lag is recommended).

1. At this point in time, you can launch your game and set the desired FSR preset from within the game menu.

Confirm FSR 4 is working by opening the AMD Software overlay (ALT+R) during gameplay and checking the FSR 4 status indicator to see if it is marked “Active”. You can also visually confirm each time you launch a game. A small overlay will appear that will indicate the status of FSR 4.

[Paranoid_Andr01d]

Thank you @Khanoxxx! I now see the option in the Oblivion Remastered per-game Graphics menu in Adrenaline and verified it worked via the overlay. I appreciate you pointing me in the right direction!

[digibluez]

That is the problem,. it is not shown, i know how to activate it, the option is simply not there

in oblivion remaster no option for frs 4 is shown

it is on for Monster Hunter Wilds

How it should be  shown

[Paranoid_Andr01d]

@digibluez  from your first screenshot it appears you have the standard/generic super resolution setting enabled for Oblivion. Perhaps try disabling that option and then restarting the game?

[digibluez]

that has nothing to do with FSR4

[Paranoid_Andr01d]

I think it’s worth a shot! FSR4 would defeat the purpose of using RSR as you would be running the game at native resolution for FSR4 vs running at a lower resolution and enabling RSR (your screenshot shows the setting actually warning you of that since you appear to be running at native res). I do not have RSR enabled and the option for FS4 is available, enabled and verified working.

[digibluez]

im not running at lower res and t the warning is that its not working, that is not the issue, there is not even an option to see the FSR 4 toggle per game, like you see on the screenshot for Monster Hunter

[Khanoxxx]

Something wrong with your settings.

For it's correctly displayed that FSR4 is active.

[digibluez]

I had to reset factory default profile and restart my pc for it to start working

now it shows up

the driver installer is really buggy mess, would not recommend AMD for anyone 

[sciony]

Unlikely Andrenalin doesnt recognize Oblivion Remastered from GamePass 😕

[digibluez]

there is a problem with detecting games as usual,

the normal main profile for Oblivion detects its self from

C:\GAMES\Steam\steamapps\common\Oblivion Remastered\Engine\Binaries\Win64.CrashReportClient.exe

that does not support FSR4 and when i sometimes start up the game, there is no FSR4 support, it tracks gametime

but there is an other profile for this came  and it detects itself from 

C:\GAMES\Steam\steamapps\common\Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Binaries\Win64\OblivionRemastered-Win64-Shipping.exe

it supports FSR4, gametime is not tracked

but steam starts the game from

C:\GAMES\Steam\steamapps\common\Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered.exe

that is in no AMD game profiles listing, it is all over the place

please fix your game profiles AMD, such a mess

[DailymotionGamers]

hello, can you contact the pro edition team and ask them is there any plans to release any new drivers?

[W0lfar]

DayZ fix?

[Snygg-Risse]

Still problem with low performance DX11 on battlefield 1 and 5. You need to turn of HAGS and to get full performance from RX 9070, but then u get low performance on other games such as DX9.

[xynx]

RX 9070 XT

Using HAGS causes lower performance in all of my games which is a shame because i liked the latency reduction from using it.

[Grubbs008]

Does anyone even notice any change in performance with this driver for Oblivion Remastered? It's running like an absolute mess. Verifying does nothing, the micro-stutters are absolutely insane.

Frame Gen makes it run faster, and the cost of screen tearing, and even turning vsync on, or enhanced sync, does nothing at all it still tears all over the place. The frames are all over the **bleep** place, and the stutters are insane.

What a mess of a game.

[xynx]

GPU: (RX 9070 XT)

Using MPO causes intermittent hard stutter every 2-3 seconds, this wasn't a problem with my RX 6900 XT.

[Pominotor]

Ici un probleme de carré noir ou de petit ligne rouge qui apparait au niveau du viseur (souris) sur counter strike 2...apres reinstalation du systeme , driver avec DDU meme probleme.

De plus en plus de gens mette des postes sur reddit avec le meme souci mais personne ne trouve...

6700xt + 5800x 3D

[yuver]

25.4.1 // Solved crash driver and game, monster hunter wilds on my rx 7600. Thanks Devs amd

Now more stable nothing issues

[alphalion]

Finally the full screen flickering and alt-tab system freezing stopped with this update (6900XT). Thanks!

[NewLight]

Specs:

Monitors: AOCQ27g3xmp. (or something like that) FYI MONITOR IS HDR CAPABLE 

& random old monitor

MOBO: MSI B450m Bazooka 

CPU: 5700x3d

GPU: 9070xt Steel Legend

I can replicate this issue ANYTIME

TLDR: I’m almost positive HDR is broken on some of these GPUs or on these drivers.  

After experimenting between drivers 25.3.1 and 25.4.1, I’ve come to find out the 9070xt GPU works without drivers,  but as soon as I install drivers it does not work.  After booting into windows (NON-Safemode) the entire system freezes after 5 seconds without fail everytime.  I have to hold the power button on my PC at that point to get the system to shut off in order to reboot. 

SOLUTION !!!! Turn off my main monitor AOCQ27g3xmp before boot,  and TADAH.  Things work perfectly.  I then turn it back on, make sure HDR will NEVER turn on, then I can use the monitor fine.  

I hoe this helped people!!!

BTW this rely is included on a thread regarding KNOWN ISSUES for amd driver 25.4.1, and on its own post for google search query purposes.
