Need help finding AMD Chipset Driver

I need help finding my AMD Chipset Driver, ever since giving it a update, many of my devices stopped working. Computer: Gateway SX2110G, AMD E1-1500 CPU Dual Core, Radeon HD 7310 512MB, Windows 8.1.

Here is the INFO of the Chipset & Other Junk:

I will also show you my devices that are online:

Yea, A big bunch of pictures. It seems that the driver is hidden ( I used the show hidden devices thingy ), or that it is split into multiple devices and/or drivers. + Just in case for hackers, I have a fire wall, Anti Virus, all of the protection software!

Hi,

Chipset, BIOS, and some major drivers will be available at the System/Motherboard Maker's
Site. So that is Gateway for you. For other 3rd party device drivers (not chipset) after checking
Gateway (if they provided the device) then check with the actual device makers' sites.

Some troubleshooting methods :

Get your apps and devices working in Windows 8.1
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-IN/windows-8/get-apps-devices-working

Microsoft - Hardware and Drivers
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/hardware-drivers-help#hardware-drivers-help=windows-8

Download and install drivers
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows-8/all-drivers


Why isn't Windows finding my device?

What if a device isn't installed properly
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/what-device-isnt-installed-properly

Check with System Maker (Motherboard Maker for custom systems) for updates to
the BIOS, low level chipset drivers, and the major on-board and separate device drivers.
Run DriverView - set VIEW to Hide Microsoft drivers - update those without Dump in
their name.

DriverView - Free - utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your
system. For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address
of the driver, description, version, product name, company that created the driver, and
more.

For Drivers check System Maker as fallbacks and Device Maker's which are the most
current. Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - write down the make and
complete model of your video adapter - double click - Driver's tab - write down the
version info. Now click UPdate Driver (this may not do anything as MS is far behind
certifying drivers) - then Right Click - Uninstall - REBOOT this will refresh the driver
stack.

Repeat that for Network - Network Card (NIC), Wifi, Sound, Mouse and Keyboard if
3rd party with their own software and drivers and any other major device drivers you
have.

Now go to System Maker's site (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (as rollback) and then
Device Maker's site (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI as examples) and get their latest versions.
(Look for BIOS, Chipset, and software updates at System Maker's site while there.)

Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - Right Click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT
after each installation.

Always check in Device Manager - Drivers tab to be sure the version you are installing
actually shows up. This is because some drivers rollback before the latest is installed
(sound drivers particularly do this) so install a driver - reboot - check to be sure it is
installed and repeat as needed.

Repeat at Device Makers - BTW at Device Makers DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER -
check manually by model.

Manually look at manufacturer's sites for drivers - and Device Maker's sites.

Hope this helps.
