    You should be able to go to "device Manager" and choose your video card and then choose "previous version" from the menu. It will revert your driver back to what it was before.

    Hi there

    Here is the driver for the CPU and GPU

    Download
    Once on the website click on:

    Step 1 - APU
    Step 2 - Mobile UPU
    Step 3 - E-Series APU
    Step 4 - Select you windows version

    Download and install, it will uninstall the old version.



    Hope this helps

    It appears by the quetion presented that the OP wants to go back to the old driver not install a new driver.

    Please pay closer attention to the questions thanks.

    Don't you think you should have send me a private message stating that.

    Anyway, the chances are that the driver bug was addressed with the latest drivers. Which is normally the case.

    If you feel that there was something wrong with what I had posted then please use the report feature.

    As far as PM'ing you. I dont know you and I rarely PM anyone. I prefer to leave it in the open to avoid confusion.
