3. Double-click on the name of your graphics card. A smaller window will pop up that contains the graphics card properties. There are 5 tabs at the top, click on the second one that says, Driver.

4. The Driver tab will show the name of your graphics card at the top and a bunch of information about the currently installed driver. There are 5 wide buttons on the bottom left with descriptions to the right of them. Click on the second button, Update Driver.

5. A new window will pop up asking “How do you want to search for drivers?” Click on the second option, “Browse my computer for drivers“.

6. The next window that comes up says “Browse for drivers on your computer”. At the bottom of this window, it will say “Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer“. Click on this option.

7. This next window says “Select the device driver you want to install for this hardware”. In the middle of this window is a box that says “Model” and will probably have multiple listings here. You can tell which driver is which by the driver version number shown and the date. There will probably be at least 2 drivers showing, pick the one with the newest date and click on Next. THE DRIVER YOU SELECTED WILL BEGIN TO INSTALL. Windows may freeze or flicker for a few moments, depending on your particular setup.

After the installation process is finished, close the window. The AMD Adrenalin software will launch automatically. If it does not, launch it and check if the compatibility issue is fixed.

Solution 2: Turn off Automatic Updates

Windows, by default, can download and install the latest updates. It can also update the drivers. The AMD Adrenalin compatibility issue you’re facing appears to be linked with drivers. According to some users, the problem occurs after Windows update the drivers. And therefore, we are recommending you disable automatic updates.

Follow these steps to turn off automatic updates:

1. In the search box, type Settings and hit the Enter button. This will open the Settings window.
2. Tap on Windows Update in the left-side menu.
3. Click the dropdown icon next to Pause updates and select the maximum duration (Pause for 5 weeks).

Unfortunately, Windows does not have the option to disable automatic updates for as long as you wish. For now, you can only pause updates for a maximum of 5 weeks.

Solution 3: Reinstall the Software

If you’re still facing the compatibility error on your PC, try reinstalling the AMD Adrenalin software. In case you don’t know how to uninstall an app, follow these steps:

1. Tap on the Windows icon and click All apps. You should see all apps on the screen.
2. Scroll down to AMD Adrenalin software, right-click on it and select Uninstall.
3. Right-click on the AMD Adrenalin Edition app and click Uninstall.
4. Click Yes to uninstall the app.

After you’ve removed the software from your PC, restart the device once, and download the app from AMD’s official website.
