Hello,

I purchased Dell Inspiron 5520 with core i3-2370M, ATI 7670M graphics.

Full specs are:

core i3 2370M 2,4 MHz;
6 Gb DDR3 ram (2+4 with dual channel enabled);
ATI 7670M 1 GB;
Windows Home Basic 64 bit, SP1

When I try to load GPU-Z it is popping up with its logo and staying in such way for a long time (maybe 5 or more minutes). Nothing happens ,but CPU is loaded about with 25-30% on GPU_Z task all that time. If I close laptop screen and then open it up again, the GPU-Z is starting but showing integrated graphics of the processor first (Intel HD 3000) but thats ok.

But! When I select second graphics in the lower left corner (ATI 7670M) the program is hanging on and remaining in this way exactly as when I launch it first time. And when I close laptop and open it up again, GPU-Z is showing something ridiculous in the specs. :(

The driver is from the DELL's web-site. Windows Device manager has no errors and showing both integrated and dedicated cards. One strange thing is that driver properties for both Intel and ATI cards in Device manager has ati in their name, but I guess this is way it should be...

Windows Experience index is showing very low numbers for gaming video, from 4,8 to 5,1 only. That's can't be correct at all.

Any ideas how to solve this problem?
