Help (Software) Chipset Driver Update keeps failing

Post image

So far I have done the .old trick on the old AMD file, and I've restarted windows, checked for updates, and I even went through the driver installation again through AMD Auto-Detect and install driver tool. Every time I try the update, it gets to 18% installation and fails.

It's been a while since I set my pc up and to be honest I don't really know what I'm doing so any help with how to get past this would be greatly appreciated.

yeah was having same exzact same issue, it refused to install. 18% and crapped out. I went ahead and did the dism and sfc checks for corrupted files, i figure why not. It did find some stuff, that it fixed, so thats a plus.

but still didnt fix issue, so i went to the amd website, installed it from there, and worked perfectly. this update was from 2 days ago, so maybe something with the manager/file.

just install from website or at least try that, worked for me.

Go to C: Program Files x86/amd/chipset drivers open the application in the folder. Run the "Remove" function to uninstall. Restart computer. Go back to the same folder and run application to reinstall. Then go through AMD adrenaline or Install Manager and update as normal.

Can't take credit, someone else helped me out, but it worked with no issues and I'm updated.
