Macbook Bootcamp Windows 8 Driver Update Issue
Macbook Pro Early 2012 Quad i7 Model
Alright, I'm attempting to play on a bootcamped version of Windows 8 because I like to not sit in one spot and play all day, owning the Macbook primarily for school purposes. I can use it to play in other rooms with family/friends. I do own a gaming PC and play on it at night.
The issue comes in where I cannot install the latest driver from AMD for the 6600M and 6700M series graphics card. What I currently am doing is completely uninstalling all of AMD/ATI files, folders, and applications that deal with graphics. What is happening, though, is that when I restart my computer, the older version of the graphics driver keeps getting automatically installed, even though I uninstall the display adapter through Device Manager as well. And when I go to install 13.8 Beta 2, my computer doesn't even recognize the driver. It installs but changes nothing as far as the display driver.
I know this is a long shot but any help would be greatly appreciated.
