GPU Acceleration disabled even with latest drivers

Firefox Probleemoplossing

I´m trying to enable GPU acceleration, but even with the latest drivers it wont enable. Note that this is with AMDs Legacy driver for Windows 8 x64. The card is a 4870x2. Firefox wants a higher driver number then 12.8 but in CCC it states that my driver version is 13.1.

hello, there seems to be a different technical driver naming scheme by amd for radeon HD 2/3/4000 series graphic cards (their latest driver version is 13.1 which translates to the technical version 8.97.100.7) & hd 5/6/700 cards (13.4, which translates to 12.104.0.0).

due to crashes triggered by older driver versions firefox is blocking all cards below version 9.10.8.0 for HWA - i don't think it is possible to differentiate these blocks for certain card models (since there are too many of them)...

you could try to circumvent the blocklisting like it is described at https://wiki.mozilla.org/Blocklisting/Blocked_Graphics_Drivers#How_to_force-enable_blocked_graphics_features though.
