AMD has made available new Catalyst graphics packages targeted at some of its Embedded GPUs, G-Series SOCs, and R-Series APUs and SOCs, which ensure compatibility with Microsoft’s Windows 7 (both architectures), 8.1 64-bit, and 10 64-bit operating systems.

In order to be clear, the producer has provided the 15.201.1701 package, which provides support for certain Embedded GPU, G-Series SOC, and R-Series APU models, and which is basically the initial Windows 10 driver for these devices.

Moreover, the aforementioned file also implements general bug fixes and adds compatibility with AMD’s E8860 PCIe, E8950 MXM, WMS E8870 MXM, and E8870 MXM graphics cards.

Moving forwards, AMD has also offered two more Catalyst versions, namely 15.101.1010 for Windows 7 32- and 64-bit, and Windows 8.1 64-bit, as well as 15.201.1501 for Windows 10 64-bit, which is the first package to support the new Embedded R-Series DB-FP4 SOC.

Considering all aspects described above, if you intend to upgrade your graphics chipset, simply save and unzip the appropriate package for your system configuration, run it, and follow all instructions displayed on-screen for a complete and successful installation.

Nevertheless, once the upgrade has finished, it is recommended that you perform a reboot in order to allow all changes to take effect properly. If this task isn’t requested automatically, it would be a good idea to carry it out manually.

That being said, from the links below, follow the one that best suits your components and OS, save and apply the new graphics driver, and constantly check our website in order to stay “updated one minute ago.”
