Known Issues and Important Notes
13.1
Support for MS Windows XP
AMD recently announced to provide drivers for MS Windows XP. They are already available on the AMD developer web.
Note
There will be no official release or support from congatec for these XP drivers.
13.2
Graphics Memory
In BIOS Setup, the graphics memory is set to 256MB (default). If there are 4GB Ram installed Windows 7 (32Bit) provides only 2.69 GB system
memory. In order to increase the available system memory, the graphics memory can be reduced to e.g. 128MB in BIOS Setup. In order to
increase the graphics performance (e.g. Blueray playback) the graphics memory can be increased to e.g. 512MB in BIOS Setup. Graphics
memory should be set to a fixed value.
13.3
AMD “Eyefinity” Support
Currently the AMD graphics driver does not yet provide support for Eyefinity (e.g. combine two displays). Support is expected from June/2014.
13.4
HDMI Audio Support
HDMI audio transmission is not yet supported by the released driver.
An appropriate driver including HDMI support is expected from beginning of June 2014 (Driver version ≥14.20). In order to use HDMI audio in
advance, AMD provides a specific DVI-HMDI dongle (OPN: 199-999269).
13.5
Audio: Recording Level via HDA Front Panel
Recording via HDA audio front panel is very quiet. This hardware-related issue will be solved with the upcoming conga-IGX variants.
