Waking up an old HP Pavilion 15-n228sa notebook for kids.

Hello.

A few weeks ago i took out my old laptop i used for Solidworks and Autocad. The notebook is in a perfect condition never had any problems with it and it still had windows 8.1 installed. So i bought a SSD, additional RAM and installed a Windows 10 Home on it and now im in trouble. The last updates on the HP-website are very old (maybe the only solution). Ive tryed everything from Catalyst software up to Adrenalin. With Catalyst it is almost working.. cant switch between graphic cards.. even thing called *roblox* freezes. the catalyst installs but cannot open the software and so on. All the later softwares install the drivers and then the >No AMD Graphics Driver is Installed..< and the fan just runs like crazy. Ive tryed all of the solutions i could find on this forum, youtbe and internet overall (cleanuputility, safe mode, updates off and so on).. nothing helps. 

Is there a solution for this or i should just throw it in the garbage and go buy a new laptop?

Problem is (IIRC?), both graphics chips are controlled by the Processor graphics.

The APU is no longer supported with newer graphics driver updates & the newer 8670m drivers won't work.

3rd party modified drivers may be an option, try asking on guru3d forum.
