If you guys have issue with the TM 780m graphics driver there should also be the non TM 780m graphics driver which is a more general version not so targeted to specific hardware configurations. The non TM being more general purpose for more devices using the 780m often used in gaming as well. I have used both and shown guides for both. I have heard some people have better luck with the regular general version and some have better luck with the TM. I am using the TM this time. So far the TM driver has not caused me any Legion Space or Quick Access issues and all my custom TDP is working proper.
@@GameTechPlanet Non-TM gave me an issue running medium & high settings on a few multiplayer games… I switched to TM when I first got my Legion Go and after that (was on 24.8) then 24.9.1 everything ran flawlessly. Even with my Xbox Core Elite blue tooth. Just updated to 24.10.1 and am about to try it out
A quick tip for anyone doing this. Side loaded drivers do get overwritten often, especially if you forget to pause updates or crash out from a game (not always). You do not need to constantly reinstall. Simply go to Device Manager and right-click the graphics card. Once there, click on Drivers and Roll Back Driver, use the drop down and select the “AMD Radeon (TM) 780M Graphics Driver” that you installed previously. Restart the device and you’re good to go. Hope this helps.
@@OgHazeKiller562 I periodically check my drivers, if it says anything but “AMD Radeon (TM) 780M Graphics” I use the “Roll Back Driver” option. Kind of annoying, but better than reinstalling.
Thank you, couldn’t play black ops until this. I paused every time you selected a file 😂 .. 42 year old getting back into games since fallout 4 release 😂Thanks for your guidance !
Just did this! Thank you so much, the Legion is such an impressive piece of hardware. Sucks the Lenovo isnt pushing updates to keep the device going strong. You got a sub
@@davidbrown6976 Ya I'm having issues as well. FFXVI you can't run without sideloading drivers, at least Metaphor ReFantazio works but there is so much I would love to do with it but I can't. I love the unit but it's bothersome how slow they are to release graphics drivers.
no bevause there to worried about makeing the mini and the lego 2 stupud imo we paid alot for these devices to not have proper support i paid over 1100 for just the base 512 gb model choked tbh and we couldent even get the 1tb version because canada dident supply them
Thank you so much, I was desperate to install the updated version of the adrenaline software and could not do it. With your guidance it worked out finally!
Finding this helpful today. I went to play the Axis Unseen Demo today, told me to update my driver. after trying to download the update driver as prompted, and it failing, I'm here. Good to know it's not me being completely computer illiterate. Thank you again for this helpful guide.
Thanks for the guide! I was able to install everything mostly without issue, although I forgot to turn off Windows auto-update so I had to manually fix the display driver from the Windows installed one to the 780m driver, which was super easy following your guide.
Thanks so much for this guide! Super easy to follow and very very helpful. Cyberpunk, Dead Space, and Space Marine 2 now run like butter and look amazing on my Go.
This fixed my top usb port immediately! Stopped working while playing rdr2 randomly so had to use bottom. I’m getting like 20-40 more frames as well with this driver in red dead with all high / some ultra settings! You helped me greatly and got a sub! Thanks dude! Besides that, my Lego was super slowed down comparatively, and intensive games kept crashing on me. Lenovo needs to step their game up, best handheld but where is the qc? At least we got people like you helping out! Seriously, thought it was a hardware issue but nope, worked instantly 😂 only thing extra was 2 more restarts. Thanks again hope you realize how much your carrying Lenovo lol
I installed this driver. However, I constantly had problems with games. In addition to the problems in games, the Legion Space program also does not work properly. There were times when I could not change the screen brightness and resolution. While I was getting higher fps in some games with the old Legion Go's own driver, the fps values also decreased after this new driver process. My advice is to wait for Lenovo to organize this driver package and give it as an update.
Thanks for the comment. Seems to be hit and miss on this one for people. Thats the problem with unofficial stuff like this but worth a shot for those who are having major issues with the oem driver in certain games they trying to play. Everytime i go back to the oem driver i cant play FF16 🤣. Lets hope Lenovo is soon with the update but im not holding my breath. May was their last update and it was an April driver. So we are about to hit 7 months old. Not good for gpu drivers.
@@GameTechPlanet Thank you. Lenovo does not give the necessary importance to this device. They have forgotten it right now. Asus rog ally model or similar models are constantly updated. A suitable amd driver is also released for every new game. However, levono has not done anything for this device for months. When you report this to lenovo, they tell you that an update will come as soon as possible, but they have been saying this for 4 months and no update has come.
@@orcunfix I know I feel the frustrations as well. Imagine if Nvidia or AMD dropped one update a year for their graphics cards. Games just wouldn’t work or wouldn’t work properly and thats whats starting to happen on the Go. Its been my top 2 windows handheld and highly recommended by me since launch. But the serious slowdown in updates especially the gpu drivers is very frustrating.
I also had similar issues. COD MWII and MWIII constantly crashed. Sometimes I couldn't even load into a match without it crashing. Escape from Tarkov also crashed or just took 15 minutes to load a raid and then would give a server error. Horizon 5 also had issues. I've found with the factory drivers and Lossless scaling it runs rock solid at more than 60fps on most stuff with the graphics medium to high.
Also next time that happens with a Space gpu driver update. Make sure you open windows store so adrenaline will auto update and be compatible. If you dont open Microsoft and update than adrenaline wont work
If you have issues with adrenalin after a legion space driver updates and the microfiber store doesn't fix it. You can ddu your legion graphics driver and reinstall it from the website and it will reinstall adrenalin.
At least we are tech savy. But what about the normal consumers? They will return the legion go as broken because the update just breaks the software lol. Inexcusable. The normal consumer is not capable of doing the sideloading, they won't even know what to search for
First time on this channel. Followed your steps, and everything worked like a charm. Thanks for the tutorial. Gonna sub as well. Good stuff bro. Now I can play BO6 on my Legion Go.
It’s the same thing. I just did it for the first time and not disabling windows Hello Sign In caused some issues, but once disabled the process is the same. Makes sure you get the latest DDU version just in case though which is 18.0.8.9 as of December 8
So by default you dont rly need anything toggled on. But the adrenaline app is full of great features these days like AFMF2 for fluid motion frames, anti lag, RSR and more. Depending the games your playing and the experience you want will dictate if you need or want to use any of those features.
I dont know why but this second video for this Update worked for me, the first video you told me to restart the pc after update the graphic to 780, i keep getting stuck at the restart logo. I shouldnt restart the pc instead i should install Adrenaline, and that is what i did and it worked!
Not sure why it works both ways for me but that dont mean alot 😂. Glad you got it sorted. Thats also why I like to cover these things multiple times and different ways.
Anyone else have issues entering safe mode? After the step where you press 4 to enter safe mode it boots up to the user login screen and says I need to reset my pin, I can't progress from there
It’s an issue with the setting in windows that doesn’t allow accounts to login if they’re not a Windows account. The DDU website on their latest version they left a memo, letting us know that we need to disable that feature in order to login, but for me, even with that feature disabled, I wasn’t able to login again, even with my normal password because I disabled pin login just to make sureand in save mode I can’t log into my device for some reason. I did it all in normal mode and it’s working good so far.
this driver update f****ed my legion any game i played was stuttering especially elden ring which i didnt have any issues before it became unplayable and also legion space was crashing all the time. Fortunately i did a system restore from two days ago and now everything works great again i think im done with any driver updates for Legion Go
@@Kosanton yea thats the unfortunate thing with stuff like this and why it frustrates me. Much prefer official drivers. Im doing ok on this new update but its definitely not great for everyone it seems. Come on Lenovo. Surprise us with an update 👀🤞
Yea. Thats something i often do but had to cram this one in lol. Im also working on an OEM driver vs this new driver video as well. Just gotta catch up a little. So many devices and games to cover 🤣
Appreciate you taking the time to demonstrate a step by step, for most all of us LeGo owners having to sideload gpu drivers is necessary. $700 is a lot to pay to work this hard, Lenovo should address or will lose the user base buzz in another 6 months.
Here dude all am asking is how to use the hot keys an remap the buttons from bck of the legion go joycons to enable Amd motion fluid on an off how to do it I jusy cant get to remap an use the hot key to bring ig when I qm in a game playing Inneed some help dude in tha part an also how to minimize the game on the destop screen when olaying cause I tend to use some cheats on some games an I just cant get to the desktop screen.
I hear ya man. I see your comments. Unfortunately I dont use social media like that. Maybe I should make a full guide on how to do this and put out soon. Its really easy tho man. Open legion space and go to your controller settings. Its the tab all the way to the right at the top next to settings tab in Space. Then at the bottom it has tabs. The first is Button Mapping. Click that. Then go into view and edit. Easy to remap your buttons there and setup back button shortcuts. The combination shortcut you need for Motion Frames toggle is Alt Shift G. As far as getting to the desktop when in game. Two easy ways. For touch screen just swipe up from bottom og the Go screen. That will bring it up. Or you can press the Quick Access button on your right controlleramd the 4th tab down which should look like a little wrench. Go to that tab and its full of shortcuts including Win+D which takes you to desktop.
Update : have the 24.10.1 , Thank you very much! dec 5th new update 24.12.1 , how do you update when the window for amd only gives you option to close.? Do you have to repeat the update driver process all over ?
@ when I get to where previously INf file is in the steps after the (wt6a selection), I can’t go any further the file type is called “ u0410212 “security catalog” not inf file?
I just wish my adrenalin would open, in my AMD Folder it says I have version 24.5.1. For months it hasn't been able to open but when I first got the LGO it did. I know my drivers are up to date with the stock drives and I've no complaints about its performance as I'm getting more than 50fps on most games on High/med settings but its really starting to boil my piss that I can't access Adrenalin to make it better.
If you are on oem official legion go drivers you get your adrenaline update from windows store. If its alrdy showing updated and still wont open maybe try uninstalling adrenaline and reinstalling. Shouldnt affect your driver.
@@GameTechPlanet I have done dude, no joy and its showing in the Microsoft Store the Installed Version is 10.23.40021.0. Is there a risk to windows if I use this method to just uninstall the official drivers then reinstall along with Adrenalin... I don't have a usb and I read some people having to install windows again, that's mainly the reason I haven't tried this. I've paused my windows update.
In legion space theres the section in settings to setup your hotkeys / buttons on the Go to whatever you want. Just set them to the adrenaline shortcuts you want to use or any other shortcuts
Price. Basically its a screen they used for alot of tablets and was cost effective to help keep the price down while having a larger screen, larger battery, removable controllers and all that. A trade off. Not my favorite as for me the screen on m device is usually THE most important part of the experience
thanks. And there can be drawbacks. I have not had any issues but for some people legion space stops working. And sometimes even with windows updates off or paused it will rollback amd over write the driver so gotta keep an eye out. Other than that its just typically enjoying better performance and adrenaline app features
@@MrStark-le6vr i usually just pause mine in settings. Click your window icon, settings, windows update then you will see a drop down menu u to pause updates for up to 5 weeks.
Just a random question if anyone knows: Is amf2 is basically like lossless optimized to extreme for Lego comparing the latter? I did notice a HUGE jump in frames and very minimal artifacting in rdr2 ( I know this game does it more than most ) but it’s so much better now. Lenovo needs to stop messing around lol, they have the best handheld and are not catering to it like they should. I’m not sure if they realize it is literally their namesake at this point, at least from what I’ve seen. Shout out to all the people stepping in where they are lacking. That new driver bricked my Lego lol, usb port broken and running 3x as slow, games crashing, LEGO randomly shutting off when running at 30w. Real mvps out here. (Just very happy that it fixed my port, was not expecting that going in lol) Happy new year!
Theres lots of ways people use. For me i jsut pause windows updates in update menu every 5 weeks lol. But with all my testing im constantly redoing stuff and factory resets and everything so its not a big issue for me.
Is there anything you have to do before restarting via advanced options? Everytime I press the 4 button to safe mode it needs me to set up a pin again and then it won’t let me do it as it won’t let me connect to the internet!! Anyway Around this?
So I can’t use safe mode for whatever reason. Like I’m unable to open any apps or files in safe mode. I followed a different method to install the driver but the steps with going into the device manger and so on are the same. Are there any known issues with not using DDU for this process? Also what hotkeys do you have set up? I tried before and they didn’t work
I never use safe mode for this. If you look at my last guide from a couple weeks ago I didn’t use safe mode. I just had a lot of requests to show this method on one so I did. For the peeps lol. As far as hot leys. Set those up in legion space. I forget the keys u need but it says in adrenaline what hotkeys activate things like afmf2. Just use Space to make a combination key setup and apply to one of your buttons. Mine it the top button on back of left controller. I just click it now to turn afmf2 on amd off easily.
hello bro after updating my driver my settings of legion space are all set to 2500 x 1600 and cant change same as motion smoothness it locjs at 64hz can you help me please
I would first try reverting back to the oem lenovo driver. DDU process again then download the official driver from legion go support site and reinstall. Update adrenaline in the Microsoft Store. Restart the Go. Then download and install legion space again from legion go support site. If that doesn’t work you may just have to factory reset.
yeah I had to basically factory reset my legion after doing this I was able to play black ops 6 for like 2 weeks then legion space stopped opening for me and the quick button to access the setting to change performance stopped opening too. I did not want chance burning out the system trying run games, if you reach out to Lenovo, they will have you do all the basics like check drivers and use the bridge to run updates if that does not work then they tell you factory reset. moral of the story be careful doing this it's awesome when it works but comes with a price at this point. I wish Lenovo would really do a better job focusing on the driver support with AMD rather than making legion space look fancier. quick note this is not at shot a GameTech Planet, thank you for sharing everything you have tested I enjoy your content and have learned a ton, at the end of the day we are all just trying to do what we spent our hard-earned cash on.
For some reason, I followed this tutorial and got the latest AMD drivers and then when I woke up one day after downloading them, it said I no longer had the drivers any help would be appreciated
@@RealNitroWYD make sure your double checking that windows updates are paused or deactivated. I make so many changes i usually just use the pause for 5 weeks n settings but theres more permanent ways
@@GameTechPlanet 100% works .. tweaked setting of all my games to perfection. This is absolute game changer for handhelds and particularly my new legion go . Thanks 🙏 for the video
hi there, I have lenovo yoga laptop with ryzen 7 6800U which has radeon 680M in it. after i check all the list there's no model called radeon "AMD Radeon (TM) 680M Graphics" there's only AMD Radeon (TM) 680M and AMD Radeon (TM) Graphics. In this case what should i choose? please help
@@johnslack6254 it wont get updates. You will have to do this process again if / when you update. Or if you want to go back to using the official driver and update thru legion space you will need to ddu this driver then update in legion space then update adrenaline in windows store.
Unfortunately I haven’t run into that issue. This was my 4th or 5th time doing this to the Go since my last factory reset and so far everything has continued to work properly
@@carlosroman9726 seems hit and miss. Its not an official driver so ya never know. For me nothing has broke doing this several times. You can try downloading and reinstalling Space. Can get it off the support site. Roll back to the official drivers. Or worst case a factory reset which I have done many times to lol. Unfortunately thats the way of things when we tinker and fix things on our own while waiting on Lenovo.
Legion Go is both easy to love and to hate lol. Depends your experience with it. I love the device but so far the last half of 2024 has been horrible for software support from lenovo.

Here dude all am asking is how to use the hot keys an remap the buttons from bck of the legion go joycons to enable Amd motion fluid on an off how to do it I jusy cant get to remap an use the hot key to bring ig when I qm in a game playing Inneed some help dude in tha part an also how to minimize the game on the destop screen when olaying cause I tend to use some cheats on some games an I just cant get to the desktop screen.
I hear ya man. I see your comments. Unfortunately I dont use social media like that. Maybe I should make a full guide on how to do this and put out soon. Its really easy tho man. Open legion space and go to your controller settings. Its the tab all the way to the right at the top next to settings tab in Space. Then at the bottom it has tabs. The first is Button Mapping. Click that. Then go into view and edit. Easy to remap your buttons there and setup back button shortcuts. The combination shortcut you need for Motion Frames toggle is Alt Shift G. As far as getting to the desktop when in game. Two easy ways. For touch screen just swipe up from bottom og the Go screen. That will bring it up. Or you can press the Quick Access button on your right controlleramd the 4th tab down which should look like a little wrench. Go to that tab and its full of shortcuts including Win+D which takes you to desktop.
Update : have the 24.10.1 , Thank you very much! dec 5th new update 24.12.1 , how do you update when the window for amd only gives you option to close.? Do you have to repeat the update driver process all over ?
@@ClarkyMalarky yup. Gotta do it all over again. The downside to unofficial drivers sideloaded
@ when I get to where previously INf file is in the steps after the (wt6a selection), I can’t go any further the file type is called “ u0410212 “security catalog” not inf file?
@ or do you mean like going through absolutely everything again, uninstalling, going through the “ blue screen “ etc etc
I just wish my adrenalin would open, in my AMD Folder it says I have version 24.5.1.
For months it hasn't been able to open but when I first got the LGO it did.
I know my drivers are up to date with the stock drives and I've no complaints about its performance as I'm getting more than 50fps on most games on High/med settings but its really starting to boil my piss that I can't access Adrenalin to make it better.
If you are on oem official legion go drivers you get your adrenaline update from windows store. If its alrdy showing updated and still wont open maybe try uninstalling adrenaline and reinstalling. Shouldnt affect your driver.
@@GameTechPlanet I have done dude, no joy and its showing in the Microsoft Store the Installed Version is 10.23.40021.0.
Is there a risk to windows if I use this method to just uninstall the official drivers then reinstall along with Adrenalin... I don't have a usb and I read some people having to install windows again, that's mainly the reason I haven't tried this.
I've paused my windows update.
How did you bind your back buttons?
In legion space theres the section in settings to setup your hotkeys / buttons on the Go to whatever you want. Just set them to the adrenaline shortcuts you want to use or any other shortcuts
I wonder why lenovo decided to use portrait LCD on their Legion go...
Price. Basically its a screen they used for alot of tablets and was cost effective to help keep the price down while having a larger screen, larger battery, removable controllers and all that. A trade off. Not my favorite as for me the screen on m device is usually THE most important part of the experience
@@GameTechPlanet Thanks for your reply you got a new subscriber! Hey any cons of using sideload driver vs the official ones from lenovo ?
thanks. And there can be drawbacks. I have not had any issues but for some people legion space stops working. And sometimes even with windows updates off or paused it will rollback amd over write the driver so gotta keep an eye out. Other than that its just typically enjoying better performance and adrenaline app features
Can you explain how to remove or deactivate the Windows update that installs an old driver?
@@MrStark-le6vr i usually just pause mine in settings. Click your window icon, settings, windows update then you will see a drop down menu u to pause updates for up to 5 weeks.
@@GameTechPlanet Oh, it never really occurred to me. Now if I don't lose the new driver. Thank you good man.
Are you editing the video or does your legion go execute everything that fast?
Just a random question if anyone knows: Is amf2 is basically like lossless optimized to extreme for Lego comparing the latter? I did notice a HUGE jump in frames and very minimal artifacting in rdr2 ( I know this game does it more than most ) but it’s so much better now. Lenovo needs to stop messing around lol, they have the best handheld and are not catering to it like they should.
I’m not sure if they realize it is literally their namesake at this point, at least from what I’ve seen. Shout out to all the people stepping in where they are lacking. That new driver bricked my Lego lol, usb port broken and running 3x as slow, games crashing, LEGO randomly shutting off when running at 30w.
Real mvps out here. (Just very happy that it fixed my port, was not expecting that going in lol)
Happy new year!
Is this helpful for running Metaphor Refantazio? I don't know how to tell what games would benefit from the newer drivers.
Is there a video on how to turn off the auto updates? This is my 3rd time doing this? Lol
Theres lots of ways people use. For me i jsut pause windows updates in update menu every 5 weeks lol. But with all my testing im constantly redoing stuff and factory resets and everything so its not a big issue for me.
Need help after I do the basic display adapter n click through all the stuff can’t find packages….can someone please help
Got a recommendation for legion go drivers to use? 🤔
Is there anything you have to do before restarting via advanced options? Everytime I press the 4 button to safe mode it needs me to set up a pin again and then it won’t let me do it as it won’t let me connect to the internet!! Anyway Around this?
What to do to make the fps counter work properly?
My says: need full screen
So I can’t use safe mode for whatever reason. Like I’m unable to open any apps or files in safe mode. I followed a different method to install the driver but the steps with going into the device manger and so on are the same. Are there any known issues with not using DDU for this process? Also what hotkeys do you have set up? I tried before and they didn’t work
I never use safe mode for this. If you look at my last guide from a couple weeks ago I didn’t use safe mode. I just had a lot of requests to show this method on one so I did. For the peeps lol. As far as hot leys. Set those up in legion space. I forget the keys u need but it says in adrenaline what hotkeys activate things like afmf2. Just use Space to make a combination key setup and apply to one of your buttons. Mine it the top button on back of left controller. I just click it now to turn afmf2 on amd off easily.
Wrong safe mode? Try option 5 for safe mode with networking
Thank you!
hello bro after updating my driver my settings of legion space are all set to 2500 x 1600 and cant change same as motion smoothness it locjs at 64hz can you help me please
Oh man, this just broke my Legion Space. What’s the least invasive option to get it back functioning again?
I would first try reverting back to the oem lenovo driver. DDU process again then download the official driver from legion go support site and reinstall. Update adrenaline in the Microsoft Store. Restart the Go. Then download and install legion space again from legion go support site. If that doesn’t work you may just have to factory reset.
I did exactly the same step by step and it goes back to the default configuration after I restarted
Double check windows update is paused? I haven’t had this happen
Mine gets stuck on the pin saying something happened and my pin isn’t available and won’t let me in on safe mode
Thank you.
Mine isn’t showing up in the inf folder. Do you have to uninstall current drivers for it to show up?
What do you have alt r set as in adrenaline?
After doing this do I have to download the Amd radian graphics driver from legion space as well?
I installed this and suddenly I couldnt change the resolution anymore on the quick options. Does anyone else have the same issue?
Yes
How to toggle on and off the amaf2 quickly? Which key
yeah I had to basically factory reset my legion after doing this I was able to play black ops 6 for like 2 weeks then legion space stopped opening for me and the quick button to access the setting to change performance stopped opening too. I did not want chance burning out the system trying run games, if you reach out to Lenovo, they will have you do all the basics like check drivers and use the bridge to run updates if that does not work then they tell you factory reset. moral of the story be careful doing this it's awesome when it works but comes with a price at this point. I wish Lenovo would really do a better job focusing on the driver support with AMD rather than making legion space look fancier. quick note this is not at shot a GameTech Planet, thank you for sharing everything you have tested I enjoy your content and have learned a ton, at the end of the day we are all just trying to do what we spent our hard-earned cash on.
Once I update the drivers, they work fine until I restart and then it doesnt launch Adrenaline but instead keeps asking me to update.
For some reason, I followed this tutorial and got the latest AMD drivers and then when I woke up one day after downloading them, it said I no longer had the drivers any help would be appreciated
@@RealNitroWYD make sure your double checking that windows updates are paused or deactivated. I make so many changes i usually just use the pause for 5 weeks n settings but theres more permanent ways
Thanks I will see.
Hey quick question my legion go is not saving when I already did this what can I do?
hi I don't know what to do now lol because AMD just dropped Adrenalin 24.10.1 driver yesterday, could you check that one out please ?
Gonna be working on the video this weekend. Least thats the plan 🤞
@@GameTechPlanet 100% works .. tweaked setting of all my games to perfection. This is absolute game changer for handhelds and particularly my new legion go . Thanks 🙏 for the video
Hey every time I click and setting it says update required and when I update it says it again
After installaiton is done, does the frame generation automatically applies to all games ?
No. You can toggle it on and off in the app. Setup shortcuts / hotkeys to make it easier to turn on and off on the fly
@@GameTechPlanet
Thanks, subbed !
It appears the driver returned to the original one for some reason, any recommendation to keep the AFMF2 installed ?
hi there, I have lenovo yoga laptop with ryzen 7 6800U which has radeon 680M in it. after i check all the list there's no model called radeon "AMD Radeon (TM) 680M Graphics" there's only AMD Radeon (TM) 680M and AMD Radeon (TM) Graphics. In this case what should i choose? please help
I'm using the drivers but now the fps counter is broke and even i map fmf to a back button it doesn't work, any advice would be awesome
I have try to install this AMD driver with all thia passage, but give me an error with installation, idk why...
Adm adrénaline ask for new update .. what i must do ? Cant pu amf on or options...
This is my first time doing this kinda thing, does it still receive updates or do I have to rollback somehow?
@@johnslack6254 it wont get updates. You will have to do this process again if / when you update. Or if you want to go back to using the official driver and update thru legion space you will need to ddu this driver then update in legion space then update adrenaline in windows store.
How do you keep all your display resolutions ? I always lose mine when sideloading and stuck on 2560 x 1440
Unfortunately I haven’t run into that issue. This was my 4th or 5th time doing this to the Go since my last factory reset and so far everything has continued to work properly
@@GameTechPlanet i just figured it out. AMD cleanup utility is the culprit ! I’m sticking with ddu
@@kidzrevil ooo ok. Thanks for commenting 👍
Next time to flip screen just hit screen unlock flip s reen then lock again way easier
👍 old habits die hard. This is the way
setelah aku melakukan semua cara divideo, pada aplikasi "legion space" gpu ku tidak terdeteksi suhunya, bagaimana solusinya?
Did everything but when I open AMD software the package is not there help
Same!!!!!
does this version (24.9) better than 24.10?
Yeah would love to know
What if I can’t get into safe mode? Is it okay to update the driver still?
If I install this driver Does the legion space power settings slider still working or not? Please reply thank you
I did this shit and now I can’t open legion space it instantly crashes wtf do I do
@@carlosroman9726 seems hit and miss. Its not an official driver so ya never know. For me nothing has broke doing this several times. You can try downloading and reinstalling Space. Can get it off the support site. Roll back to the official drivers. Or worst case a factory reset which I have done many times to lol. Unfortunately thats the way of things when we tinker and fix things on our own while waiting on Lenovo.
is this the same as the preview driver ?
How many people here because they actually hate their legion go?..... And desperately trying not 2?
Legion Go is both easy to love and to hate lol. Depends your experience with it. I love the device but so far the last half of 2024 has been horrible for software support from lenovo.
So who already tried new drivers? I did but have some serious problems. After 1 minute of playing I got FPS down to 10-15. Any ideas?
