ati hd4000/3000/2000 windows8.1 driver install

Recently my old laptop has upgraded to windows 8.1. But the official driver catalyst 13.1 13.4beta cannot be installed.

To solve the problem:
 
Step 1: Go to device manager, find your video card. If the name is something like standard *** device, you can ignore this step. If it's not, double click video card, choose driver -> roll back driver. Finally your video card's name will be standard *** device.

Step 2: double click video card, choose driver -> update driver -> browse my computer for driver software.
 
The path should be AMD\Support\13-1-legacy_vista_win7_win8_64_dd_ccc\Packages\Drivers\Display.
 
Click next and you'll find your video card name ATI HD XXXX, without "WDDM1.1", which is good because WDDM1.1 means a very basic driver.
