    display adapters drivers not working


    trouble started with my laptop not booting on normal mode but works fine in safe mode, tried disabling display adapters, then it boots fine in normal mode. but when display adapters where enabled, laptop freezes. been trying to update and download drivers, laptop ends up having those yellow triangles on the display adapters in the device manager... now what seems to be the problem is i dont know what drivers to install,, im getting messages like

    the ati graphics is not working properly ----- something like that
    i have two things under display adapters
    ati mobility radeon hd 5470
    and intel hd graphics
    both have yellow traingles beside it and the update driver thing doesnt seem to work
    im using hp pavilion dv3, windows 7 prof, 64 bit

    i dont think i have any devices attached to the laptop recently

    tried system restore doesnt work.. laptop has been offline for months and when i did the windows update i guess thats when the problem started


    help please.. thank you..

    hi pal.. so i got those drivers from the link u gave downloaded and installed, i had the intel hd graphics installed first, i restarted and it seems to be working except that the screen resolution options were a bit different from what i originally have, and since i have 2 drivers previously installed, i then installed the other driver-the ati radeon 5470, i restarted the laptop and it put me back to the same situation before, laptop shows black screen but audio is working, but still works in safemode
    will it be fine if i just uninstall the radeon driver//
    or do i need to uninstall the drivers that was originally installed not only from the device manager or but from the programs and features as well

    Hi there ... What are you intending to do once you have the Driver Uninstalled ?
