DW on Laptop with Radeon HD7340

Hello everyone,

I am looking for people with experience on running DW on a machine with a Radeon HD7340. I installed it on my laptop but I am only getting some 9 - 10 FPS in the options menu. Since DW is not that demanding and on my old 2007 laptop it was running fluently, I suspect there is something wrong with my config.

Could it be that your Laptop has 2 graphics cards? One dedicated and one integrated?
If so, you might have to explicitly tell the graphics driver to use your Radeon for DW.
Also i heard that the generic amd drivers can have problems switching graphics cards. So maybe try the laptop manufacturer for a different driver.

That's all I can think of right now.
