Last week I installed Skyrim on my laptop and the only graphics adapter option available was my integrated graphics. Then I tried another game, Slime Rancher, the game tried to use AMD GPU (6630), but instead it crashes.
My computer seems to be having trouble changing the graphics card.
Later I tried disabling the Intel GPU (HD Graphics 3000), but Windows did not select the AMD GPU, saying "Windows stopped the device (code 43)".
I re-enabled my Intel graphics.
I went to Windows Settings> Display> Graphics Settings, selected a random game (Terraria) and selected options, and the only GPU option is my Intel GPU.
I did a Clean driver installation using Guru3D, however it still not working.
Maybe my GPU was flashed (?), The computer is not originally mine.
Specifications:
Manufacturer: Sony Corporation
Model: VPCCA17FL
OS: Win 10 (Version 10.0.19041 compilation 19041)
CPU: Intel i5-2410M 2.3 GHz
IGPU: Intel GPU (HD Graphics 3000)
GPU: AMD GPU 6600m and 6700m series (6630m) (1G)
RAM: 6G (originally 4G)
BIOS: American Megatrends Inc. R0240V2, 04/12/2011 (MM/DD/YYYY)
EDIT:
I checked CPU-Z and the GPU is not showing up
EDIT 2:
I did a GPU benchmark with 3dMark , it detected the GPU but it says that it is a 6650m running at 450 MHz while it is a 6630m that should work at 500MHz base and 800MHz at Turbo, perhaps it really was flashed (?).
Any solution?
EDIT 3:
I installed afterburner to see what temperature is working at, if it is working, and the clock frequency
Clock: 100 MHz, the higher it get's 300 MHz
Memory Clock: 150MHz, the higher it get's 300 MHz
Temperatures: around 81ºC!
In the images The AMD GPU it's showing as GPU1
EDIT 4:
Intel HD Graphics 3000 are incompatible with Windows 10 and it's conflicting with switchable graphics. I'm going to try to go back to Win 8.
