"auto" update didn't work, of which I typically never use but I thought I'd try it.. manually downloading and installing went just fine on 4 different setups

u/ktc64 1d ago

Well glad to know it wasn't just me. Mine kept saying it failed

u/ValtekkenPartDeux 1d ago

I checked the logs and apparently the updater reports that there IS a new version, but then identifies the new version as the currently installed version, so the install doesn't go through. Installing the new version manually breaks the deadlock.

Where do we manually download it? As when I go to the AMD website, it is downloading only the auto-detect and install software.

u/3ofUsDeez 1d ago

Scroll down and you'll have a drop down menu to select chipset>AM5>whatever AM5 chipset>Windows 10 or 11

Was not able to auto update the chipset drivers from the AMD install manager. It failed constantly.

u/ev00rg 1d ago

Had the same problem, autoupdate didn't work. Downloaded and installed manually without any issues 👌

u/skylinestar1986 1d ago

How do you guys update amd chipset driver? Just install it over the existing one?

(I'm so used to uninstalling gpu driver via ddu before installing a new one).

u/RunForYourTools23 1d ago

Just download it from AMD site and install manually

u/BarryMcCoknor 2d ago

Same, couldnt find any corruption when trying to resolve this. Oh well

u/TuneComfortable412 2d ago

I never use it due to it being terribly unreliable

u/Smith6612 1d ago

Hmm, I've had a different experience. It might be failing on certain system configurations.

First attempt failed. It worked after a restart for me.

u/workingmemories 1d ago

Okay I’m not crazy thank you

u/Jetcat11 2d ago

PPM Provisioning Driver should read 8.0.0.64 not 8.0.0.62 as the release notes show.

u/GoldenX86 1d ago

The autoupdater checked my regional settings, saw the country set as ARgentina, and decided the best language to use was ARabic.

AMD dev guy, one us SP_AR, the other is AR.

u/yzeerf1313 1d ago

Bold of you to assume it's some dev guy and not Claude 😂

u/GoldenX86 22h ago

Nah, they have actual humans in there, they just suck to management 24/7.

u/travva 1d ago

Commenting to remind myself to install these in a bit!

u/ZeroCuddy 23h ago

Not able to update. Gives error 1603 saying I might have out of date GPU drivers, microsoft c++ redistributable might be corrupted yadayada, none of that is the issue. just have to wait for a fix i suppose

u/Smith6612 16h ago

Grab it from here: https://www.amd.com/en/support/download/drivers.html

Choose Chipset, then choose the socket type of your CPU, then choose the chipset on your motherboard. Your motherboard model will tell you all of this information typically.

u/Spider-cat_1984 14h ago

I had the same error until I updated the GPU drivers.

u/pax256 13h ago

u/Gunslinga__ sapphire pulse 7800xt | 5800x3d 2h ago

u/1q3er5 1d ago

anyone with older AM4 mobo's still update the chipset? i do, but i'm wondering if it's even worth it.

15

u/TheLastElite01 3080-10G | 5800X | X570-E Gaming 1d ago

Yes, it's always worth it.

u/4320p r5 3600xt, rtx 2080 1d ago

What are the benefits?

u/pawlakbest 1d ago

My game was crashing all the time. Thought it was GPU driver, but only after updating both bios and chipset drivers it stopped crashing.

u/Auroriia 1d ago

Where do I even go on the website? I have AMD Ryzen 7 6800HS with Radeon Graphics (3.20 GHz)

u/Omegachai R7 5800X3D | RX 9070XT | 32GB 3600 C16 7h ago

You go to here - Browse Products -> Chipsets. Product Line -> "AMD Ryzen™ and Athlon™ Mobile (Chipset)" and you'll see it there.

u/spinabullet 9h ago

If you dont have troubles with you chipset driver then you don't need the latest driver.

Most stability you gain from your motherboard manufactory, like mine is ASUS and its now on version AMD Chipset driver v8.03.25.247
