I need help enabling AMD dual graphics.

MSI a88x-g45 gaming motherboard
AMD A10-7890K apu
MSI R7 250 2gb oc

I enabled dual graphics in the bios but in the radeon settings it shows the discrete card as disabled. Everywhere on the net it says there should be a crossfire option...hmmm.
 
Solution
The BIOS should have an option to enable the IGP, in the section peripherals. Run the main display off the motherboard as it will boot up with the r7 integrated gpu. THEN try to activate your dual graphics.


A10 all the way all day
A10 7870k oc'd @ 4.7ghz w/ 1.59v AIR cooling.

Hey, no I haven't and I can't seem to find any further info on enabling dual graphics either :(

You have to put the clock frequencies of the APU and the GPU to the same Mhz and connect the hdmi to the discrete GPU, that means you need to overclock the integrated APU GPU (NOT THE CPU) to the same Mhz of the clock in the discrete GPU. Then, enable dual graphics in bios and in the Catalyst Control Center (Download the latest drivers). If your discrete card used DX 12, you dont have any problems with compatibility because A10-7890K has DX12 (GIGABYTE VERSION HAS THAT). I think you dont have more problems if you make that.

I hope you can fix that.
Sorry forr my english.
