Window 7 graphics drivers

Recently I bought Dell Inspiron 3541. It had Ubuntu as an OS and I installed Windows 8. I have had a hard time finding drivers since the Dell website doesn't have drivers for this model laptop of windows 8 (Only for windows 7 and 8.1). This laptop has 2GB AMD Radeon Graphics.I managed to get all the drivers, except the graphics driver. I have installed Radeon 8500M series graphics driver but the graphics of the laptop stays as Microsoft Basic display. I tried couple of different drivers and None seem to work. If I go to Device manager -> Display adapter, I can see both Radeon graphics and Microsoft basic display. And if go to dxdiag (DirectX diagnostic tool), it shows graphics is Microsoft basic display 256 Mb.How can I change the graphics adapter to Radeon so that I can us the 2GB? Is there a way to switch the graphics? karel13.7k26 gold badges49 silver badges54 bronze badges asked Nov 10, 2014 at 6:27 9 try to update the windows driver, by going to device manager and under display adaptors find your default system driver, rick click and choose update driver software and if the windows reports that the driver is up to date, then uninstall the radon 8500M driver by following these steps,Start/search ->type devmgmt.msc and press enter.

Hello MSing26Thank you for posting in the Intel Community. With the newer releases of Intel® graphics drivers (DCH) It is recommended to follow these steps: 1- Download the latest DCH driver and save it on the computer.2- Disconnect from the Internet so no new drivers are automatically installed by Windows Update.3- Uninstall the driver and the Intel Graphics Control Panel from Control Panel > Programs and Features.4- Restart the computer.5- Confirm in Device Manager > Video Adapters the controller is listed as 'Microsoft Basic Display Adapter' > if not, repeat steps 2 through 4.6- If the adapter continues to be listed as ‘Intel HD Graphics’ or similar, and no other Intel Graphics driver is listed under 'Programs and Features' for removal, then it means Windows has switched to a previously installed Legacy driver. At this point we can remove Legacy drivers from Device Manager:a. 6.1.1 Right-click on 'Intel HD Graphics' or similar, and select 'Uninstall Device'b. 6.1.2 In the pop-up window make sure 'Delete the driver software for this device' is checked.c. 6.1.3 Click on 'Uninstall'.d. 6.1.4 Restart. (Repeat steps 6.1.1 through 6.1.4 until the device gets listed as 'Microsoft Basic Display Adapter')7- Install the DCH driver that was downloaded on step 1.8- Restart the computer.9- Reconnect to the Internet.Reference link: C.
