Download Link: AMD_2D00_GFX_5F00_23.20.24.03.zip
Installing the test driver:
- Unzip the file (right click, extract here/extract all/etc. depending on your zip utility of choice)
- Open the 02_AMD_GFX folder
- Important!: Right click gfxinstall.bat and "Run as Administrator"
- Command prompt window will appear, wait while it runs.
- Will hang for a while on "adding driver package: u0397700.inf"
- Screen will black out momentarily
- Command prompt window will be gone
- Graphics driver has been updated, you can check in AMD Adrenalin Top left of "system' window should say released 11/7
Notes:
- These drivers are dated 11/7 and are a step forward from our current official release, bringing notable enhancements.
- Our original plan to release these drivers last week has been revised. We are now focusing on releasing a newer driver, aiming to include additional fixes and improvements.
- The upcoming driver release will integrate the advancements found in this 11/7 version, along with further enhancements.
- I did indicate we were trying to get a driver update out last week and because we had a pivot in release timing, I am hoping that this test driver can help address some of your issues while you wait for the final release of an updated driver.

- Open device manager (Windows Key + X > M, or search "device manager" in windows search)
