[SOLVED] AMD Graphics - Error Code 43

Last response: in Graphics & Displays
Share

Hi.

My Laptop: ACER Aspire 7750G
Video Card : AMD Radeon HD 6650M
OS: Windows 8

Recently, my laptop starting to have issues with the graphics card. This may not be relevant, but it started around when I installed Windows 8 on my laptop (legit copy).

In my Device Manger, on Display Adapters, there are two video cards.

1. Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000 (Working fine, probably the on-board one, I think)

2. AMD Radeon 6600M and 6700M Series (Not Working, gives error : Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43))

I have tried to roll-back the driver, and update it via Device Manger, search online. I tried installing new drivers and the CCC from AMD website, but it always give me an error on it was unable to detect the graphics card.

Does anyone know what's wrong ? And the steps that I can take to fix it ?

Thanks.

I forgot to mention that I'm running a 64 bit.

However, the problem still persists. After downloading and running the 64 bit AMD catalyst installer, I was given an error :

"AMD Catalyst Mobility cannot be downloaded due to incompatible hardware/software on your computer.

This version of your graphics adapter is not supported. "

Thanks scout_03 for the support.

I figured the solution to my problem.

It turns out that I either had a bad installation or a corrupt video system file. I only needed to do a full clean up uninstall on my AMD graphics card.

Here are my steps for future references:

1. Uninstall AMD drivers from Uninstall Wizard (not from Device Manger)
2. Download Driver Fusion, and select Delete on AMD.
3. Restart the PC. Go to Acer official website, and download the newest VGA driver.

Hey there,

I did exactly as you said.
All 3 steps but I still have the Error Code 43.
I have a windows 8 64 bit Samsung series 3 with a series 7600 HD Radeon.

I don't think it bother anything, cos everything seems to work.
But what the hell is it?!

Please advise.
Thx :)
