I have a AMD HD 7470 on my a bit old pc, with Core i3-3220 and Win10 x64 OS 20H. I have a problem when I run Ps 2022 on it. When I install last version of video card driver from AMD website (last update 2015), I get the following error

and when I update video card driver from device manager (last update 2021), I get the following error

I have tried by enabling Direct Play under Legacy Components in Turn Windows Features on or Off but wasn't helpful.

Ps 2022 requires DX 12 & 1.5GB GPU RAM minimum. That card can only do DX 11 & only has 1GB RAM. It looks like when you allow Win itself to update the driver, it switches to the on-board GPU [which can borrow system RAM], which is also too old for 2022. Like many of us… you're stuck with 2021.

That AMD GPU was one of many abandoned at the release of Windows 10. The general rule for the two last available drivers is to stick to the final release, 15.7.1 unless you have issues; then try the beta 16.2.1
In this particular case, neither driver will give you DX 12 or the extra RAM.

You've reached End of Life with that machine, I'm afraid.
