It seems that a lot of GPU problems revolve around specific versions of drivers. Though AMD has their own support structure, you can often learn from information reported by others who fold.

Welcome to foldingforum.org, Cikin1.

If your drivers are not installing correctly, you might try a different driver version found on the AMD site rather than the ones you get from HP, but there simply may not be a solution to the problem yet. Switchable GPUs are complex systems and writing dependable drivers takes time. See the footnotes at the bottom of this page.
