    I'll be anxiously waiting. I have a HP Envy Sleekbook with an AMD A10 processor and HD8610G graphics. Didn't try Windows 10 on it yet because of the drivers.

    AMD working on drivers for Windows 10 preview builds

    I just went to HP to try updating the drivers on this laptop, but of course none could be found. Then I went to NVidia, but I guess the graphics card is a tad bit too old because it wasn't even found. I could go to AMD, but I think I'll just go ahead and roll back to Windows 8.1 when I get my new laptop somewhere around the 25th.

    Currently using the following as a Home Theater PC:
    AMD A8-6600K APU
    MSI R7-250 GPU
    Denon Receiver & 60" LG LED Smart TV

    Upgraded to Build 9926 yesterday (64bit), and it replaced my AMD drivers and deleted the Catalyst Control Center. The only real problem this caused me is that now my display is not filling the screen (underscanning), which I could adjust for using settings in the Control Center. When I attempt to reinstall the latest drivers and Catalyst Control Center, it fails to load the detection driver and locks up the installation application. I could work around this using the settings on my flat-screen, but that would throw it off for all the other stuff I am running on it. We'll see how long it takes to get this fixed.......

    Try installing 14.12 Omega drivers but only CCC. But check for CCC in Programs first, I didn't manage for it to show on taskbar automatically.

    I'll check it out and let you know what I find. I do know it's not listed under APPS. I was also unaware that CCC could be installed independently from the drivers. Thanks.

    Tried everything you said,CountMike, but CCC is gone from programs and nothing posted on the AMD website works, beta or otherwise, simply because it tries to install an autodetect program which just won't load with this build of Windows. I'll just have to wait and see how long it will take AMD to respond to this issue

  10. In my experience, that only happens if you choose the autodetect downloader option. Have you tried the other options? I have no trouble installing the AMD drivers for Win8.

    I might add, in my experience with my HP machines, if I tell it I'm running Windows 8.1 and download (not download and install) "only" the one driver for whatever, be it the AMD processor or the Audio card, etc. then click the downloaded driver, it will install.

    There're more ways to skin Windows 10 than one. *Smile

    If you're not running a desktop, AMD IntegratedGraphicsProcessors are the only game in town for notebook GPU/graphics performance. Intel IGPs (usually found only in notebooks) are very slow comparatively and don't support as many D3d/OpenGL API features. For notebooks you cannot do better than an AMD IGP if you are interested in playing any games with your laptop.

    For desktops, AMD (ATi, formerly) makes 3d cards at least as good as anything nVidia makes in the way of discrete GPUs.

    As far as desktop CPUs go, Intel cpus still run benchmarks faster than AMD cpus, but AMD cpus are still a much better buy than Intel cpus, imo. If you are the kind of person who thinks he can discern the difference between a game running at 100 frames per second and the same game running at 80 frames per second, then you'll probably want to spend the extra cash and go with an Intel cpu...*Wink If not, then the AMD cpu is a much better buy, imo.

    Just to ad this, AMD's APUs, (Axx.xxxx) have different drivers for it's GPU part although it's number may correspond to discrete GPU. Those APU processors have better GPU incorporated than corresponding Intel processors, so that has to be taken into account.

  14. My laptop has an AMD A-10 APU, and a dedicated AMD GPU. An AMD Radeon® HD 7660G plus a 7670M with 1 gig or dedicated video RAM. It's a plus plus for me as I can use the one driver from AMD and have the switchable graphics work as they should. On the down side I had driver issues with the 9926 build. No problems with 10041 though. My laptop is upgrading to 10049 as I type this. Hopefully that works out too.
