I just installed Windows 7 Pro 32-bit on my old IBM/Lenovo T60p and everything is great except for my video card driver... Even though I've downloaded and installed the Windows 7 drivers from Lenovo's website, windows insists on using the standard VGA graphics adapter and wont let me change to the ATI drivers. As a result, I only have access to 16Mb of graphics memory and can't run any of my more graphics-intensive programs. Any ideas?
I have a kind of old laptop, a Dell Inspiron E1705, and it has an ATI Radeon x1400 graphics card. I really want to install Windows 7, but I'm not sure if this card will be able to support the Aero interface. Will everything go smoothly?
I just finished installing Windows 7 ultimate, 32x to a separate partition of my hard driveWhen using Windows XP, I have a 1440x900 resolution, and windows says that my graphics adaptor is an ATI radeon mobility x1400. However, when I boot into Windows 7, I have a much smaller resolution, no aero support, and windows says that my graphics adaptor is "VGA standard display adaptor" or something similar to that
sony vaio as above.. in device manager my radeon is showing as standard VGA, I tried to download the drivers from radeon using the AMD automatic driver installer it found the radeon but could not instal the driver, so I went to sony site for the driver I can download it but when I try to open it all I get is an error saying "compressed zip folder invalid".
heres my laptop spec if it helps
running Win 7 home premium x64 Product Identifiers BrandSony ModelVAIO C series VPCCB3P1E
Every time I shut my laptop the screen stays on and then when I open it back up, it's stuck to dim.
I haven't really been bothered by this until the last few days and it's time I figured out a solution other than never shutting my laptop when it's on.
Can any1 help me with this driver for windows 7 , or at least for vista x64 , i'm a little bit nubbish with the search on google i found only catalist but didn't found the driver.
Okay ive been searching the internet (and this forum ) for a driver for my ATI Radeon 9800 Pro.
I know its an old card.. but its still decent.
ATI have put it under the Legacy support list? but if i try and install that.. Windows 7 wants to tell me that the Microsoft Corporation WDDM Driver is better and wont let me install it.
is there a work around this?
And is it possible to get Aero Support with this Graphics card?
I have searched high and low for this and still can't find it. Don't suppose any of you guys have it? I tried the catalyst but still no dice, last driver for it is on vista, doesn't go onto 7.
I have read numerous posts on how to get the ATI Radeon 9250 card to work with Windows 7 but I cannot get any solution to work with win 7.64I do realize that this card is not compatible or recommended for win 7. I just need to get it working short term until I can buy a replacement, this is the only PCI card I had to get this new system working.
I recently installed an ATI Radeon 9550 HD display driver to my computer, Windows XP SP2 32bit . Before that, my computer was running in VGA mode only. But though, I have downloaded the driver and installed it with the Catalyst Control Center. After rebooting, what I got is a black screen after Windows XP boot screen. I shut down the computer and now I saw the classic WELCOME with the blue background... but nothing more. After rebooting the PC for about 5 times, I got past the WELCOME stuff and to the desktop. As I watched the Device Manager, It says the I Have Installed the ATI Driver and its secondary Driver. But though, if I right-click my desktop and go to Display Properties>Settings>Advanced>Display Adapter I saw that there was no Display Driver and I was still running in VGA. VGA sucks because you can't play any 3D games or even Google Earth won't work. Now everyday I start the PC, I have to reboot about 5 times untill I get it working. It's been almost a month since I'm doing this and it caused me alot of nerves and boredoom.But though, sometimes I think the ATI works since I boot the PC, then I see the black screen and hear that start sound like when you XP starts. I managed to acces the Narator and saw that PC was actually working, except was like blind. I am looking for some fix tips and reply ASAP.
Have a VTX Radeon HD5450 silent GPU and I cannot find the driver from either the VTX or AMD sites. The download which half an hour from VTX was in Latvian (no insult intended) or some such language and included a heap of Microsoft stuff.
The AMD site doesn't throw one up when I click on the HD 5450 download am at a loss as what to do!
i installed Windows 7 Professional 32bit on My GPU is compatible with Aero, why I can't use it? I tried to install all windows drivers, but it doesn't work.
when i installed windows 7 i tried to install drivers ..realtek driver was succesfully installed but when im trying to install video driver in the middle of installation comes out message "the monitor might flicker" or sth like that and than monitor becomes black and than blue screen appears with error and immediately the monitor switchs off with message "out of range 28 khz30 khz"
I saw a similar thread here with the solution of increasing the idle clock speed of your GPU: Windows 7 with Radeon HD 5770
I am having very similar problems where my graphics card driver seems to crash all the time when I'm doing thing that don't stress the GPU. This started happening after I added 8 GB of memory that I bought recently. The thing is I can't find a way to edit the idle clock speed of my GPU in the new CCC. I have tried using the 11.12 and 12.1 and its the same thing. In my C:Users{YourUserName}AppDataLocalATIACE folder I noticed that the profiles.xml file is what has the CoreClockSpeed option but I can't seem to edit it (I open it and change the numbers but when I save it gets reverted right away).
I just did a clean install of Windows 7 Professional on my laptop and for the most part everything went extremely smooth. I just have one question, what is the most recent edition of the driver for my GPU? Is it 8.632 as provided by my laptop manufacturers website?
I'm having a terrible time with this ATI Catalyst driver. Yes, I've read all of the sticky topics and nothing works. I have an HIS Radeon 4350. No drivers downloaded from anywhere work. When I run the install software, it fails after I click the gold "install" button. I get a Windows 7 error report with the same old "DisableSessions" solution, which does absolutely nothing.
It runs, I see the "success" message, I even looked in the registry to make sure the keys were gone. They are and the Catalyst driver still will not install. Yes, I even tried compatibility mode, sadly on the compatibility dropdown, I see "Widows XP SP1" and it's disaabled so I can't change it.
Also, I have no surround sound. Yes, I have the ATI DVI/HDMI adapter. Yes I downloaded and installed the Realtek HDMI driver. It only shows two channels. No clue what's going on there either.
Why is it completely impossible to install any software for this video card? I've tried everything. Haven't I?
My issue is that my video card drivers are not working right I have tried old and new and still locking up the card when I play Dirt 2 or NFS Pro Street. Everything work great until I put a load on the video card like try to play a game or go full screen with online video (u-tube – CNN new) Yes I tried the 9.12 also nothing well fix it.
I have removed all drivers first and all ATI Catalyst, too. I have installed the ATI Radeon HD 5770 on to my old XP Pro 32 bit with 9.12 XP drivers and it works great and can over clock the H out of it.
But Win 7 64 bit with no over clocking at all well not work worth a ^%$. Anyone have this issue? Did ya fix it? I am about to reload XP Pro 32 bit but would hate to do that.
I had windows 7 installed on my system by the local Staples Office store yesterday. When they installed it my Vid card, a ATI Radeon 4650HD (1gig) was already plugged into the motherboard.
I've tried installing both the drivers and the CCC for the card but it doesn't seem to be recognized by windows 7. When i go into the device manager under Display Adapters it reads "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter". I had thought that under Windows XP when i looked there it recognized my card, am I installing the drivers wrong? Is windows not seeing them?
I have a ATI Radeon 9250 video card and I need a driver for it. I have the Windows 7 7100 build. If there is a driver can someone please post the link or where i can find it.
I upgraded my os from windows vista 32 bit to windows 7 64 bit home premium a few days ago, and am having a horrendous time fixing the resolution problem. I can not seem to locate a driver from ati or toshiba themselves to support this upgrade, anything i do find does not install stating that the os is not supported. My resolution was much higher (do not recall the exact numbers) but now maxs at 1152x864.
here are my comp specs:

I recently upgraded a friend's old laptop (Toshiba Satellite A70) to Windows 7, but there are no drivers available for his graphics chip/card.how to properly install it?I'm aware that the 9000 series only supports up to DX8.1 and thus can't run Aero, but that's not a big deal. I merely want the capability to run the machine at its native resolution without having "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" listed in Device Manager.
