So I tried updating my drivers because CSGO started running slow... worst decision of my life.
Now even Steam won't run, if i see the task manager it says "steamerrorreporter.exe" after loading until "Connecting to: account". I tried : unistalling drivers tens of times and trying tens of them. Installing and unistalling Intel HD Drivers, and trying several combinations of CPU and GPU drivers.... It's been 2 days. What the heck is up with AMD and their drivers?! Third laptop with AMD driver problems... the other times, installing the previous driver worked just fine. Now I can only run games with HD Graphics... unimmaginable lag. HELP.

(I have tried drivers from both AMD and HP sites)

My laptop : HP Pavilion DV6 3145-sl.

First thing I always recommend when driver problems occur is using Display Driver Uninstaller to boot into safe mode and clear out the old drivers entirely, then reinstalling them. Here's the link: http://www.wagnardmobile.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=624&sid=b0c6cd7511299d354c3fe2fa8d4e161a

After you run DDU, start with selecting your OS and installing the Intel driver from https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/97497/Graphics-for-Previous-Generation-Intel-Processors
Then install the AMD driver from http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop/legacy?product=legacy3&os=Windows%207%20-%2064 Start with the stable version
