I am using a samsung 350e7c-s02uk laptop which has swtichable graphics between an intel HD 4000 internal graphics card, and a Radeon 7670m graphics card.
I am running windows 8.1

My computer recognises the radeon card in device manager, but the graphics switching software suite which came with the laptop doesn't recognise the card, and only recognises the intel card.

I have tried uninstalling the hardware from the device manager and installing the specific driver required, which informs me that the install worked correctly. Only to find out that the card is still not functioning.

I have gone to the laptop manufacturer's website and found my laptops drivers, only to find that they do not feature the radeon graphics card driver.

I have tried installing the catalyst driver software for the card which amd advise to use if you can't find the specific laptop drivers from the laptop manufacturer, it happily installs the software, and acknowledges that drivers are required, then only recognises the intel card.

When I disable the intel card in device manager I am unable to run games due to a "lack of a graphics card".

I am lost for things I can do right now. Can anyone help me?

For the radeon graphics driver I would go to the AMD website and download the driver from there.

I imagine the Catalyst Control Centre has the controls to switch graphics when you need to. I say "imagine" as I don't actually know, my own laptop has a dedicated NVidia graphics card and the switching controls are located in the NVidia control panel.
