Display Adapter not showing up under device manager/AMD not working +

Are you able to Uninstall the Driver for the Graphics card ? Try that and a Normal boot ..

I've already uninstalled the driver. I've used driver sweeper, too. I just can't boot into normal mode for some reason. Though, when I open up driver sweeper it still shows AMD Display? But there's nothing in it.

Go into the Bios and turn off switchable graphics option .. See if it will boot then

How do I go into the bios to do that? I'm not really sure what the bios is

Just found out that on your Laptop there should be an actual switch .. To switch between Graphics Cards .. How handy is that ... The picture is in the Link below ..

I'm able to get into normal mode now.

Agh, installing drivers still didnt work though. It says "Failures occured during installion." I'm trying to open up the log now, its taking forever cause it opens up using internet explorer. Its a different error message from before tho so is that a good thing?

Hi there .. You where able to turn off the AMD GPU ? Which Display adapters show up in the Device Manager ?

Before I didn't have any display adapters, but now I have ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5730 showing up. It has a yellow error triangle by it though. I just tried to install the driver again, it said installation complete and suggested a reboot so I'm gonna try that now.

Yes reboot

Ok, I rebooted and I'm back to the first problem I had. After the start up windows screen, its just black. I'm in safemode again.
