The hell?So should I get a old driver or a new one?
For my system, I've only found the old driver that I listed that worked. Your system is different and may require a different driver. But for me, drivers that are now almost 3 years old have worked the best, but, the same drivers wont work on windows 8.1, because 8.1 for some reason makes catalyst control center stop working =/

Can you tell me how to get Windows 8.1 to Windows 8?
- 9 years ago
Unfortunately the only way to get down to windows 8 is to do a factory reset of your system, which means losing everything currently on it. If that's what you're willing to do, I can walk you through it. If it's not, then keep trying to find a driver set that will load the game, if you can find drivers that will load the video at the beginning, then you are over the hard part, getting it to recognize the mouse/keyboard after is easy.
I wish they would fix this massive hole in their coding of the game already.

@ExtremeLeNut You can find most detailed ones here: https://help.ea.com/en/article/plants-vs-zombies-gw2-system-requirements/
If you are grabbing a new system you might want to check out tech sites so that you know you're getting a good machine.
For quick at-a-glance tech/performance guide I like to check out http://www.logicalincrements.com/ personally. - Anonymous9 years ago
@EA_David, there has been a conflict among EA sites, and the one quoted by this thread's OP seemed Weird. Although an HD 7730 is apparently the same general performance as the HD 5750 was, it's actually ended up being more of an OEM part that AFAIK, almost didn't exist in the main retail channels at all. Admittedly, the HD 7750 was a more potent product, but it appears AMD has more or less mistreated its HD 5000 and HD 6000 customers by cutting them off from new drivers from November onward.
Anyway, it doesn't seem there is any valid HD 7000 choice OTHER than that 7730, leaving the more recent R7 250X as more widely available, like the HD 5750.

May I have a link to fin the requirements for the Graphics Car[Minimum] and CPU[Minimum] if its on the link you gave me please tell me where it is.

The CPU has remained the same all along: CPU: 3.20 GHz Intel i5 650 or 2.5 GHz AMD Phenom X4 9850
My objection to the changed requirements listing suggested was the comparative rareness of the Radeon HD 7730 while it was in production. Someone found some new 7730s being sold on Amazon, though. Anyway, an R7 250X should still be available:

Video: NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 or AMD Radeon HD 5750 (driver availability conflicts)
DirectX: 11These facts do not affect the very low quality video that is the best available from Intel.
