Download Amd Driver For Windows 8.1

AMD Drivers installer help you automatically download and install AMD drivers, for Windows 7, 8.1. And supports Windows XP, Vista, 7 & 8. Download Driver.

After you install Windows 8, you may need to install the latest Windows 8 drivers for any hardware that Windows doesn't have built-in drivers for.

Windows 8 is one of Microsoft's newer operating systems so most manufacturers regularly release driver updates for their hardware that are specifically designed for Windows 8.

Below is a three-page list of information on Windows 8 drivers and general Windows 8 compatibility information for major hardware and computer system makers, including Acer, Dell, Sony, NVIDIA, AMD, and much more.

Please let us know if you've noticed more recent Windows 8 driver information from a particular manufacturer but I haven't yet updated this page.

For most hardware, a driver update is not required just because you've updated to Windows 8.1 or Windows 8.1 Update. We still recommend installing the most recent Windows 8 driver for your hardware but don't worry if it doesn't specifically say it's a Windows 8.1 driver.

Acer (Desktops, Notebooks, Tablets)

Any Windows 8 drivers for Acer products can be found via their support site (linked below) just like their drivers for other operating systems.

Acer's Upgrade Assistant tool can be used to see if your computer is a compatible model.

Another helpful resource on Acer's site is their Affected Model List, which categorizes their Windows 8 compatible PCs by any issues you might encounter when installing Windows 8. If you're clean installing Windows 8, which I always recommend, your only concern should be the BIOS category. In other words, be sure to update your listed Acer computer's BIOS to the latest version before installing Windows 8.

Just because your Acer computer is Windows 8 compatible doesn't mean Acer necessarily provides any Windows 8 drivers for your computer. If none are available from Acer, that means Windows 8 probably installs perfectly acceptable drivers during installation.

AMD Radeon Driver (Video)

You can download the latest AMD Radeon driver for Windows 8 through the link above.

This Windows 8 driver is compatible with most AMD/ATI Radeon HD GPUs, including those in the R9 series, as well as the HD 7000, HD 6000, and HD 5000 series. That includes both desktop and mobile GPUs.

Most BIOSTAR boards that worked with Windows 7 should also work with Windows 8.

C-Media Drivers (Audio)

Windows 8 drivers for products based on C-Media's audio chipset are available via their driver download page, linked below.

Windows 8 drivers are available for chipsets CM102A+/S+, CM108AH, CM6120XL, CM6206-LX, CM6300, CMI8738-MX, plus several more. However, Windows 8's native drivers might work best.

The Windows 8 drivers linked to here are directly from C-Media. A C-Media chip may be a part of your sound card or motherboard but it's possible there's a Windows 8 driver that's a better fit for your sound device from your sound card or motherboard manufacturer.

Canon (Printers & Scanners)

Canon does provide some Windows 8 drivers for their printers, scanners, and multi-function devices, all of which you can download from their support site that I've linked to here.

While Canon does not seem to keep a list of their devices that work with Windows 8 out-of-the-box, looking at information on Microsoft's site and in Windows 8 itself, it appears as though most of their popular printer and scanner models will work perfectly fine in Windows 8 with the drivers Windows provides.

Compaq Drivers (Desktops and Laptops)

Windows 8 drivers for Compaq computers can be downloaded via HP's support site, linked below.

Compaq used to be an independent computer company but is now part of HP.

Dell also keeps a list of their computer systems that they have tested with Windows 8: Dell Computer Support for Windows 8 Upgrade. If your computer isn't listed, it doesn't mean that Windows 8 won't work with Microsoft's included drivers, it just means that Dell does not recommend installing it and will not provide Windows 8 drivers and support.

Dell Drivers (Printers)

Many of Dell's most popular printers are supported natively in Windows 8. In other words, you won't need to install a Windows 8 driver for many Dell printers.

On Dell's Microsoft Windows 8 Compatibility with Dell Printers page, any printer listed as Windows 8 compatible will not need a Dell-provided Windows 8 driver because Windows 8 will recognize and install the appropriate driver automatically.

Dell printers listed as Not supported may or may not have a Dell-provided Windows 8 driver. Check Dell's standard support site, linked below, for a Windows 8 driver for that printer model.

A number of models of Dell color laser printers, monochrome laser printers, and inkjet printers are fully compatible with Windows 8.

Windows 8 drivers for a number of eMachine's notebooks and desktops are available via their normal support site which I've linked to below.

Gateway lists a number of fully or mostly Windows 8 compatible systems on their Windows Upgrade Offer page.

Intel Chipset 'Drivers' (Intel Motherboards)

The latest Intel Chipset Windows driver for Windows 8 is version 10.1.1.45 (Released 2019-03-20).

This update isn't actually a Windows 8 driver, it's a collection of INF file updates which help Windows 8 properly identify Intel chipset hardware like USB controllers and other hardware integrated on Intel motherboards.

This single update works with both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows 8.

Intel Drivers (Motherboards, Graphics, Network, Etc.)

Windows 8 drivers are available from Intel (via their support page, linked below) for a number of their devices, including motherboards, graphics processors, network hardware, and more.

There are both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 8 drivers available from NVIDIA so be sure to choose the right one for your system.

It's possible that there's a better Windows 8 driver for your NVIDIA-based video card or onboard video than these drivers. If you have problems with these drivers, or your system isn't listed as a supported by them, check with the actual hardware maker.

Realtek High Definition Driver (Audio)

The latest Realtek High Definition Windows 8 driver is version R2.82 (Released 2017-07-26).

Both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of this Windows 8 driver are available.

Samsung (Notebooks, Tablets, Desktops)

Windows 8 drivers for Samsung tablets, notebooks, desktops, and all-in-one computers can be downloaded via Samsung's support site, linked below.

See Samsung's Windows 8 Upgrade page for a list of PC models that are 'supported for Windows 8 upgrade.' Even if your Samsung computer isn't listed, it may work perfectly well with default drivers provided in Windows 8.

Sony Drivers (Desktops & Notebooks)

Windows 8 drivers for Sony notebook or desktop PCs can be downloaded via Sony's eSupport site, linked below.

Sony also has a Windows 8 Upgrade page with information about Sony computers and Windows 8, including a tool to see if Windows 8 drivers are available for your specific Sony computer.

If you see the Congratulations! The [MODEL] is supported for Windows 8 message, that means that Sony has tested your computer with Windows 8 and provides Windows 8 drivers.

If you see ​The [MODEL] is not supported for Windows 8. Sony will not provide any support or drivers for installation of Windows 8 on this model. The message, that doesn't necessarily mean that Windows 8 won't install or work properly on your computer with Microsoft-provided drivers. It just means that Sony won't be actively supporting Windows 8 on your PC.

Toshiba Drivers (Laptops)

Windows 8 drivers for Toshiba laptop computers can be downloaded via Toshiba's standard support site, linked below.

VIA Drivers (Audio, Graphics, Network, Etc.)

Windows 8 drivers for hardware that uses VIA's audio, networking, graphics, and card reader chipsets are available from their standard driver download page which I've linked to below.

VIA has both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 8 drivers for the majority of their chipsets but according to their Windows 8 driver FAQ here, the following audio chipsets should be supported by native Windows 8 drivers and will not receive further updates: VT1708, VT1708A, VT1612A, VT1613, VT1616/B, VT1617/A, VT1618, VT82C686A/B, VT8231, VT8233/AC, VT8235 & VT8237/R, and VT8251.

These Windows 8 drivers are directly from VIA, a chipset manufacturer. A VIA chipset may be a part of your computer's motherboard or other hardware but VIA did not manufacture the device as a whole, just the chipset. Because of that, it's possible that your actual computer or device manufacturer has a better Windows 8 driver for your VIA-based device than VIA does.
