So today i woke up, went over to my tech-area, and decided to check for driver updates, now the thing is, my GPU (Radeon HD 7500/7600M) does not even show to have updates in the Device Manager of Windows 10 (64-bit), so i thought there must be some other place where there are drivers, since i thought Microsoft didnt have the card model in their systems for updates.

Anywho, i found something called DriverAgent, and i saw that there was an update for my GPU, so here i am, installing it, and when its installed, i restarted my pc, and CCC (Catalyst Control Center) popped up with an error saying there was no drivers installed, and to install some go to this link blah blah blah, so i was like , ok this is odd, so i checked a few forums, and made the decision to go back to 13.1 driver version, and this is where i fucked up, i didnt roll-back the drivers, since i never thought that was a thing until it was too late, and now i just fucked up my GPU, and i dont even know how to fix it, thing is, it shows in the device manager a yellow triangle, and when i try to troubleshoot it with windows, it says "Oh look, some changes were made, try restarting!", but when i do restart, its like an endless loop of that. How do i fix this? Specs below.

 

CPU: Intel Core i5-3210M

RAM: 8GB DDR3

GPU: Radeon HD 7500 / 7600M Series?

Storage: 1TB HDD

Manufacturer: Sony Corporation

Type: Notebook PC

Model: SVE1512W1ESI

Model Number: 54512184

 

Note: I have never updated the GPU drivers until now. ;(

 

ALSO: Ever since i messed with the drivers, it is not able to pickup the 2 monitors i have connected via the HDMI and VGA Port.

Meaning i am unable to play any games with my current setup :(

Download Display Driver Uninstaller from Guru3D here and run it. After the driver has been completely removed, install the latest WHQL version of Radeon Software.

 

EDIT: Looks like your card is a legacy product. Therefore, I recommend the Radeon Software beta. If that does cause issues, then it looks like you're stuck with Catalyst 15.7.

Get Radeon Software 16.2.1 Beta first. if that doesn't work out for you, then run DDU again and get Catalyst 15.7.1.
