Thank you so much! everything else i tried did not work!

I just installed windows 8.1 and i am playing counter strike 1.6 in my windows 8.1, but i am getting 20/30 fps is their any way to get 100 fps?

Okay, that’s probably why it is working fine now. I also notice I can run photoshop more smoothly and I get 40 fps instead of 30fps on one game.

I beleive it switched to the correct version of the driver during the switch.

I have an AMD/Radeon based laptop. I have two Radeon drivers on my laptop with the same name. I switched to the other one and my browsers went white as did my start menu. I switched back and the brightness is working again. Maybe switching back and forth will help?

A million thank you! I can see my laptop now!
