Windows 10: Is Microsoft Basic Display Adapter better than ATI Radeon 3000 graphics ???

Pls help me by giving an answer.

:)

 

ATI Radeon 3000 Graphics Driver is not working properly.

I have already tried that. The only compatible hardware listed to update to is what I already have that isn't working, the ATI Radeon 3000 Graphics, which is listed 3 times, and also the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter.

 

ATI Radeon 3000 Graphics Driver is not working properly.

Did you happen to try the workaround from the post I linked earlier?

The method suggested was as follows:

<in Control Panel>

open Device Manager, select Display adapters

Right click ATI Radeon (or generic graphics adapter if listed that way) and select Properties

Click "Update driver"

Click "browse"

Click "Let me pick from a list"

select (AMD or ATI) driver version 8.970.100.9001 from 2015 and install that

 

Older Lenovo Laptops & Other ATI Radeon Graphics Adapters [SOLVED]


I had no problems upgrading my older Lenovo (IBM) T60 Laptop
However it replaced the video driver with the Microsoft Basic Display Driver.
The Laptop was functional however it would not play videos beyond the lowest definitions

AMD note with respect to Radeon Display Adapters:

Windows® 10 Driver Support for AMD Radeon™ Grap... | Community

However this is NOT true per your only options!

Go ahead & do the upgrade to Windows 10 - it WILL install the Micrsoft Basic Display Adapter.
Indeed there is no Windows 10 Driver - however there IS a Windows 7 Driver and it works just fine!

You need to get the driver from the Microsoft Update Catalog - note that you will have to use Internet Explorer and open/Run it as Administrator (will not work with other browsers, not even Edge)
Once you get the CAB, extract it to a folder (I used 7-zip);
then open the Device Manger and select the Display Adapter & "Update Driver"
Point the selection from 'Have Disk' to the unpacked CAB folder and include sub-folders, click 'next', then select the appropriate driver for your display adapter .
In my case it found x1300 (I had expected x1400) but installed that anyway and now graphics work perfectly, even for 1080 videos.

For me the driver installed from the unpacked CAB - if it does not work, try the following:

I did not need those additional steps - when I unpacked the CAB using 7-zip, the B_72690 folder was already present and I was able to load it directly without having to run in Safe Mode.

Also note that I did not install Catalyst - just the driver.
