As the title says, I am looking for drivers for the Radeon R5-240. I have Windows Xp-x32.
Just looking to play with some old games on my Optiplex 360.
Thank You

GCN 2nd gen? Afaik no XP drivers exist for those. You're one gen too late. Try GCN1 (and from my experience even those are hit and miss) or older.

Don't give up so easily. This might work. It supposedly supports some (or at least one) GCN 2nd gen variant... IF you'rs isn't detected, try force-installing it through device manager.

I've spent way too much time trying to get a GCN2-based iGPU (a Radeon HD 8280E) to work. Dug up three different driver packages that claimed to support it, advertised as anything from "for evaluation, not officially supported" to "trust me bro this one works". All of them would install fine... but then just blackscreen, which matched other people's reports. I couldn't find a single (non-anecdotal) success story. But maybe OP'll have more luck. If so, please let me know.
