Does this HP driver make any difference ?

Hello
The problem seems to be related to my Windows 10 upgrade, and/or the effect this upgrade have on my graphics card.
As mentioned above, I reinstalled the game three times. This did not solve the problem.
In desperation, I the went on to reinstall my computer, and reverted my computer to factory settings. I then installed Windows 8, before reinstalling SWTOR. Suddenly, the game works fine. I could even change graphic settings without any problems.
Getting curious, I the reverted my computer back to factory settings and installed Windows 10. My graphics problems with SWTOR was suddenly back.
Fustrated, I again reverted the computer back to factory settings and installed Windows 8. SWTOR is installed and works fine again.
I am now running Windows 8 permanent until the issue have been resolved.
For me, this seems to confirm that there are graphics issues with SWTOR running on Windows 10. Why and how, I am not competent to assess.
Have anyone else experienced this or anything similar?
On my computer I can not play SWTOR with Windows 10 installed. I think this is a big issue I hope will get adressed by the developers of SWTOR, Microsoft and AMD.
Would appreciate feedback on this issue. Am I the only one experiencing this issue?!
Best regards,
Benny Andre Halsbog
Glad to hear you found a solution
A dxdiag would still be handy to give an idea of the hardware involved , albeit the OS is different now.
It is hit and miss with Win 10, a lot have no issues -
Hello again
Sending you my dxdiag after installing Windows 8.
I have to reinstall WIndows 10 if you want a dxdiag for that as well.
Hope this can help you help me 😉

I have seen issues with HP laptops before , video drivers can be troublesome on them.
After you upgrade to Win 10 only use the video drivers from www.hp.com and see if it helps
You will need to identify your particular pavilion here
Edit - example HP issue
Feels a bit challenging for me. Think three reinstalations of Windows is enough for one week (if something should go wrong).
I have installed Win10, and SWTOR is performing bad as expected.
Hopefully an updated Radeon driver will fix my problems in the future. Can always hope.
If not I will give your solution a try.
Thank you for your help!
Benny 🙂
