Method to update AMD graphics driver on the A8 with LeGo 2 driver
Update: Method also works using the XAX driver, but still testing this one. Doesn't seem happy with this driver so sticking to Lego 2
Still not the best case of having a bang up to date driver but better than nothing. Also couldn't find any other reference to doing this so sharing for info.
You can use the Lenovo Legion Go 2 driver to update the MSI Claw A8 as it's the same chip.
1.Go to the Legion Go 2 driver page and download the graphics driver
2.Go to Device manager and uninstall AMD Radeon 890m under display adapters. Tick to also include driver. Screen will go a bit fuzzy with artefacts. Don't panic.
3.Install the Legion Go 2 driver. Nothing will happen yet
4.Go back to Device Manager. The GPU should be listed as a device without a driver. Can't remember what exactly but you'll see it. Click update driver. Browse computer for drivers, pick from a list. Find 890m in the models and install.
You'll then have a newer driver than MSI have released on your Claw A8
Works with Forza 6 without the old driver warning, and also tried EAFC 26. AMD app still works and MSI quick controls still work. Not tested anything else and not doing comparisons with the old driver.
Install at own risk
