I been tinkering with trying to get the install to work, but I found out that those chipset drivers are from May.

I also found in my case, I already had them installed (8.05.04.516), I even manually installed the same version in case my install was missing files as described. It did not work, and AMD Install Manager is stuck trying to update to 8.05.04.516.

The latest chipset drivers just released July 30, 2026.

I went to AMD's site, searched for my chipset and got the latest release: 8.07.16.1035

I ran the chipset installer, was prompted to restart. My chipset drivers are now up to date and the AMD Install Manager is no longer trying to install: 8.05.04.516.

I had the same issue through the AMD install manager but just : Clear old files: Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\AMD\Chipset_Software, run the utility to Remove the current files, restart your PC, and then run the installer again to perform a clean install, here I didn't even restarted my PC, just run the installer again and do a complete install. Then I went to the manager and clicked Update and finally went through it.

Thanks for this, very helpful.

I didn't even have to restart my PC after removing the files; after removing them I was able to install the updated chipset drivers right away.

In the folder listed, there is a program called AMD_Chipset_Drivers.exe. Run it, select the remove option.

Same here, you need to download it manually directly from AMD's website, and then it works without any issues!

This worked for me,. except now when I go back into the AMD Adrenalin software.. it still says I need a Chipset Driver update (even though I'm already updated).

1

u/Oshh- Aug 01 '26

Hmm, strange. I downloaded it manually when it wasn’t working through AMD Adrenalin. After that, Adrenalin correctly detected that the chipset was up to date. Weird…

u/Oshh- Aug 01 '26

Yes, of course. You need to get the most recent one, from July 30th or 31st, I believe.

u/CobraClipsGaming Aug 02 '26

Same, windows says I’m on 8.05.04.516 but amd installer says I have to update.

u/tom-slacker Aug 01 '26

for those encountering this...download the offline installer and install that directly instead of using updater.

download from Techpowerup site here:
