Greetings lads! I have a tiny problem here, this here old laptop from a time before time's graphics card stopped doing its job, it's an HP laptop, model g6-1313sq.
It's supposedly got two graphic cards or some wizardry but none of em are getting detected which is quite aggravating since I can't play anything that requires DirectX.
It had a couple problems in the past and I sent it to a handyman for some repairs but it came back like this, he said the card wouldn't get detected.

HP troubleshooting turned up a whole lot of nothing as one can expect from tech support these days so I'm all out of options, I don't want to send it again because I need it for work and those guys take their time around here when it comes to repairs. It's barely holding up as it is.

When I look in the device manager, it does show the graphics card there but there's a yellow warning triangle next to em. The PCI device and the Ethernet Controller's got em too.
I've tried disabling the cards and re-enabling them but it didn't do much. The AMD driver (by the way the cards are Radeon HD 7450M and Radeon 6480G) won't detect them, gives me an error straight when I try to open the control panel for that.

Here's the dxdiag:
