I apologize, i have a G73Jh with a Radeon HD 5870. I thought it was the only one that had all the weird graphical issues that wouldn't accept any stock drivers.

So to further flesh out my query. If i have successfully preformed the vbios update, can i now update my video drivers and catalyst control center via ATI's driver page as i would for any normal desktop computer?

My issue is i don't know what version I'm supposed to have after preforming the vbios update. GPU-Z agrees with my adapter information window (though GPU-Z gives a longer version). Again i have BR3852.001. I am now reasonably confident i do have the updated version as after watching this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPte3QO_L4w It shows the vbios updating to BR3852.001.

My other question remains, can i now go to AMD's website and download the latest drivers?

It looks like 14.4 is what i can get there. Of course AMD has decided to make this even more confusing my providing me with the following information on that drivers page: " ***Important!***

Please note, that the AMD Catalyst Mobility driver package can only be installed on specific AMD Enduro platforms, that are second generation AMD A-series APU, or third generation Intel Core family based.

Please note that all other platforms that do not include support for AMD Enduro Technology are supported through AMD Catalyst Mobility."

What on earth does that mean?

Here's a screen I saved when I updated my vBIOS:



It looks like you DO have the newest vBIOS.

I was then able to update to Catalyst 13-9. I haven't updated since then. I would try the newest drivers, but if they give you any trouble, you can always remove them and look for something older.

Yeah I used the and auto detect after using ands uninsulated and cc cleaner. Updating now.... we shall see what happens
