Need work around help on R5 drivers WIN 11, works fine with the generic drivers, but in 640 res. I need a well thought reflection not infantile answer like this:

Hi, I'm Rodrigo and I'll help you.

Unfortunately, this processor is not on the Windows 11 supported AMD processors

you can check the complete list here:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardw... at this point I think everyone knows this, dont you Rodrigo? A well-thought reflection involves a structured, analytical process of examining an experience to derive meaning and inform future actions. Not saying something just to say something for saying: I'm good at answering something not necessary smart.

    To share my experience. I installed Windows 11 on unsupported machines of mine and still got the native and compatible drivers via Windows Update automatically. I used the ISOs from Microsoft, used a third party tool "Rufus" to create a bootable media with tweaked bypassed requirements of W11.

    I don't recommend installing 11 on unsupported PCs as you may encounter issues. e.g driver incompatibilities, etc.

    The AMD R5 processor you mentioned is not explicitly listed among the supported processors for Windows 11. This could lead to compatibility issues, particularly with drivers, as you have experienced with the generic drivers resulting in low resolution.

    To address your situation, consider the following steps:

    1. Check for Updated Drivers: Visit the AMD website or your hardware vendor's site for any updated drivers that may support Windows 11. Sometimes, manufacturers release new drivers that are not immediately reflected in the official lists.
    2. Use Compatibility Mode: If you find drivers that are intended for Windows 10, you can try installing them in compatibility mode. Right-click the driver installation file, select Properties, then the Compatibility tab, and choose to run it in compatibility mode for Windows 10.
    3. Community Forums: Engage with community forums or support groups for users with similar hardware. They may have found workarounds or alternative drivers that work better with Windows 11.
    4. Consider a Rollback: If the performance issues persist and you cannot find a suitable driver, you might want to consider rolling back to Windows 10 until better support is available for your hardware.

    While these steps may not guarantee a solution, they can help you explore potential workarounds until official support is confirmed for your processor model.

    This should have been solved by AMD programmers years ago; it's an easy fix done by editing the coding in the existing video driver software.

    I'm sad that this answer did not help you.
    Not all users know that their systems are unsupported by Windows 11, so the first step is to inform them about it.
    If you are looking for a workaround for an unsupported system, the official channels and developers will not provide it.

    Hi, I get what you’re dealing with. To second Rodrigo's response, your CPU is not supported by Windows 11. Installing on an unsupported machine may not work as you expect it.

    The best workaround is to manually install the last compatible Windows 10 driver in compatibility mode or try the AMD Catalyst/Crimson legacy package, which often works on unsupported chips. Before we go deeper, can you confirm if Device Manager shows the GPU as “Microsoft Basic Display Adapter” or something else? Also, have you tried disabling driver updates so Windows doesn’t overwrite your manual install?
