Title: VMMaker not seeing driver
Post by: dth930 on January 24, 2021, 02:05:26 pm
I'm trying to get a new install working on Win10.  I have an AMD Radeon 6670 card and am using Emudriver & tools 2.0 beta 15. 

I've installed the emudriver and rebooted.  When I go into it now, it correctly shows AMD Radeon 6670 and gives me the Uninstall option.  In Device Manager I see AMD Radeon 6670 also.  I have not installed any other drivers for the GPU (besides whatever Windows may have installed automatically).  However, when I go into VMMaker it tells me "No compatible driver found".  It only lists DISPLAY1 - Microsoft basic display driver.

I don't have any options for EDID emulation in the settings.  (though I should given the card I'm using)

I can go through the setup and generate modes for my display (a WG 25K7401, set as a K7000) but after it's done the option to Install Modes isn't enabled.

Am I missing a step somewhere?  Do I need to install any AMD drivers?

I should mention that I'm using the beta 15 release with Adrenalin 18.5.1.  I tried uninstalling and then installing using beta 15 with Adrenalin 16.2.1 but when I try that Emudriver doesn't find my card at all.

I started with a clean Windows 10 Pro install, so there are no legacy drivers around.

The correct version for your card is 16.2.1. Maybe your card's pci id is not listed as compatible (post it here just in case). Have you tried a forced installation from the hardware manager?

These are IDs that are being reported:

PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_6758&SUBSYS_0B0E1028&REV_00
PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_6758&SUBSYS_0B0E1028
PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_6758&CC_030000
PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_6758&CC_0300

When I try to force the driver to update to Emudriver from device manager I get a notice that Windows confirmed that the best driver for my hardware is already installed.  The closest I see in the included driver pack is the 6570, but that's definitely not what I have.

It's weird that 18.5 sees it but 16.2 doesn't.  Is it possible that the mistaken installation of 18.5 left some remnants that's causing 16.2 not to see it?

16.2.1 definitely has that ID included. But there are 2 versions of the package, make sure you got the one for non-GCN cards, use this link (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LBri2u2oeJ-kNxf9-qG0blTDi_t5C0sc/view?usp=sharing).

That was the problem.  When I was initially downloading the versions weren't clear from the filenames, but it makes sense now.

Thanks.
