I have this so - called laptop , it says it have AMD Radeon6470M , but instead of AMD detected It shows INTEL HD 3000
and if i enable the AMD it will give me bsod and there is a line saying atikmdag.sys or atikmpag.sys
any fix so i can enjoy more power with the AMD instead of the INTEL ? or its just the same and im being an idiot?

Did you try to install the drivers from AMD's site? If you did, uninstall them and install the drivers from Dell. http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/laptop/f/35...

You may want to full re-install Windows, then install the drivers directly from Dell. Sounds like there are issues with how the drivers were installed or maybe just got corrupted.

It may be a RAM issue also. If you have several RAM sticks, try running with only one at a time, see if that is better.

well im gonna fix my laptop at dell nearby my location , hopefully it would work back , but , ill wait , i can hold with the HD3000, ati has only slight performance boost anyway
* edit , well reinstalling windows works , BUT during system scanning ( scoring ) the "thing" seems corrupted during dx-10 test and result system shutdown , well seems like my ATI Burned out and not working properly .
