Im using a Vega 56 graphic card with a mid-2014 13" macbook pro. I cannot seem to download the AMD drivers. I keep getting "Error 173 - AMD Installer cannot continue since AMD graphics hardware was not found." I have tried using both downloads from the original website and bootcampdrivers.com but continue to get the same error. Please help!

I had issues with detection due to using a ti82 based eGPU (core V1) so I’m guessing it might be a similar situation, but to be honest I’m just guessing.

A huge THANK YOU to you! Although I already downloaded the purge-wrangler, it led me to another forum that fixed it as I was browsing around! Just had to find the right topic!

.Awesome you got it working! You don’t need to run purge wrangler per os so not sure what happened to solve your issue? It was a bit of a stab in the dark to be honest but thought I’d at least try. What actually solved it in the end? What was the topic/forum?

Booting it with rEIFind fixed the problem! My computer was able to to detect and install the AMD drivers afterwards.
One quick question: I have a 2014 MacBook and was wondering if you knew how to turn off the apple light during clamshell mode?

purge-wrangler has no relation to this issue and is only for macOS. For eGPU to be detected, you just needed to boot with it plugged in into Windows while using apple_set_os.efi to keep iGPU active. There are many similar builds (iGPU only TB1/2 Macs).

Hello I have the same message here for Sapphire Pulse radeon RX580 on a razer core x plug into a mac mini 2018 with mojave 1.14.6 and Windows bootcamp 1903. Can you show me the link from where you found your work around for this?
Thank you.

Using this program fixed it for me. Let me know if it works for you as well!

@interestingdood, Hey! So i tried installing rEFInd and i made the mistake of not disabling the apple boot secure first so rEFind was blocked. At this point i Don't know if I have to redo the process from scratch after uninstalling rEFInd because now that I am set correctly rEFInd still doesn't boot at start up. I installed apple_set_efi as suggested @mac_editor and though this one booted succesfully and that followed the steps of this post https://egpu.io/forums/bootcamp/macbook-pro-16-windows-egpu-error-12-fix/
the egpu still isn't detected when running the AMD driver.
