Hi MSFN members,

I am setting up a Dell Inspiron 11 3185 running Windows 7 64-bit (SP1). The laptop features an AMD A9-9420e APU with integrated Radeon R5 Graphics (Stoney Ridge architecture).

Hardware ID: PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_98E4&SUBSYS_087F1028

Target OS: Windows 7 64-bit (x64)

The Issue:

Official AMD driver packages omit DEV_98E4 from Windows 7 x64 INFs. I attempted manually adding the hardware ID under [ATI.Mfg.NTamd64.6.1], but Device Manager fails to match or bind the driver correctly (setupapi.dev.log does not register a valid driver node match).

What I Am Looking For:

I am looking for guidance or help from experienced driver modders on patching an AMD Catalyst/Adrenalin 64-bit Windows 7 package (such as 17.7.2 or similar) so DEV_98E4 is fully supported with working hardware acceleration.

Once a working driver package is verified, my plan is to archive and preserve the final working solution on the Internet Archive for anyone else attempting to run Windows 7 on Stoney Ridge APU hardware.

Thank you for your time and help!

But this ID is included in the official 22.6.1 driver. Which driver are you trying to install? https://www.amd.com/en/support/downloads/drivers.html/processors/a-series/a9-series-apu-for-laptops/7th-gen-a9-9420-apu.html

Yes thx l wil try but my Dell so donl use inf option so stay tuned

what!?!?

Do you have the updates for SHA-2 support installed? They are KB4490628 and KB4474419-v3. You may also need the KB2670838 platform update for the new drivers. This ID is listed in the INF file under the NT 6.1 section, so it should be installed.

l installed sp 1 and updates as l say and same error so any can make modded driver or find driver and l wil share the inf incase of backup or modded i
