RE: ATI Driver Problems



Hello,

I have a same problem with my ATI HD3850 !AGP! in Windows 7 RC 64 bit
I tried many options, but without success. I checked many forums and i found
strange thing. There was writen that manufacturers of motherboards will not
provide new drivers for "old" chipsets. I have DFI Lanparty NF3 Ultra and it
should be the reason why im not able to install graphic card correctly. I
will try to install WIN 7 32 bit then i will try to manually add old XP
drivers for motherboard...
I will keep you informed... :-)

Question: Why the manufacturers don´t want to make new drivers if the
hardware have enough power to run new win7 correctly, why the ATI sels
Graphic cards with direct 10.1 to AGP if we are unable to install it.

I don´t want to run windows xp to my death...

My Pc configuratio:
AMD Athlon64 X2 3800+ (S939)
3GB DDR 400
MB: DFI nForce3 Ultra-D
HDD: Around 1.5TB on 4 discs (2xPATA & 2XSATA)
ATI HD3850 512MB AGP

Best regards

Hi Cosco,
The Radeon CCC package v7.2 seems to have many issues, not the least of
which is BSOD while playing certain games and constant dumping out to the
desktop. Serious pixelation occurs with Doom 3 and F.E.A.R. Lucily, I had the
original v7.1 CCC package to fall back on. Open Control Panel and Programs
and Features. Look for the ATI Catalyst Install Manager. Highlight it and
choose "change" and navigate through the dialogs. What you want to do is
remove everything "ATI". Reboot, even if it doesn't prompt you. Try to get
the v7.1 CCC package from ATIAMD web page and install it. I know that the
drivers provided in VISTA are not full featured, but are way better than v7.2
ATI stuff if you can't get the v7.1 CCC package.
Good luck

Hello everyone,
I recently installed Windows Vista ( Ultimate ).
At the beginning Vista installed my Videocard drivers so AeroGlass worked
corectly
but although the drivers waren't installed corectly because the maximum
resolution
i could choose was "1200x1024" , so i decided to installed my XP videocard
drivers.
I installed them and got incompatibility problems. Ok! then i got into
ati.com and
downloaded my latesc ati drivers ( catalyst 7.2 for vista) . ok installed
the drivers..
rebooted and i get this error when my pc stars or when i try to access
Cathalyst control center or other *ATI* software installed.

This is the error:
"No ATI graphics driver is installed, or the ATI driver is not functioning
properly. Please install the ATI driver appropriate for your ATI hardware."

i really don't know what to do..
i would really need some help..

I tried to update my videocard with windows update but.. it installs the new
drivers but it's the orange error mark over it in Device services .. and when
i click on driver details it states: Error 43 :-/ .. turned off because aint
working properly.

in windows update.. it find me a new ati technologies driver update for my

driver is more compatible or something like that and microsoft advices me to
take it here into the discussion forum :-/
