Instructions for installing ATI HD 2400 PRO AGP, ATI HD 3850 AGP, ATI HD 3650 AGP, ATI HD 3450 AGP, ATI HD 4650 AGP, ATI HD 2600 PRO AGP
ALL MODELS x86 32-bit WDDM 1.1:
1) Download the Catalyst 9.11 32-bit driver Suite for Windows 7 from here - Drivers & Support | GAME.AMD.COM - Click on
ATI Radeon™ Video Card Drivers
2) Extract the driver folder by running the .exe you downloaded. It will extract to C:ATI
3) Close installer after extraction. No longer necessary. Do not continue with install here.
4) Download my attachment (CL_91526.rar) and extract the .inf file from it. Save to desktop or anywhere you want.
5) Copy and paste the CL_91526.inf you just extracted directly overwriting the original at this location - C:ATISupport9-11_vista32_win7_32_dd_ccc_wdm_enuDriverPackagesDriversDisplayW7_INF
6) Go to device manager and right click on your video card. (Standard VGA or otherwise.) Update driver software, browse my computer, let me pick, have disk, browse.
7) Navigate to C:ATISupport9-11_vista32_win7_32_dd_ccc_wdm_enuDriverPackagesDriversDisplayW7_INF
8) Click (or double click) on the CL_91526.inf
9) Click ok, then click next and let it install. If it complains that it is not signed, click the part to let it install anyway.
10) Reboot if necessary. Pick an Aero theme by right clicking on desktop, Personalize. (If you previously had a working driver from ATI's site installed, you may skip this step.)
11) Run setup.exe in C:ATISupport9-11_vista32_win7_32_dd_ccc_wdm_enuDriver
and let it complete to install the CCC, should you want the functionality. Custom mode is best used here instead of express mode, when it asks.
12) Install ATI Tray Tools (attsetup.rar in my attachments) if you wish to overclock. Ensure adequate cooling. Disclaimer - Should you choose to overclock, responsibility falls entirely on you.
13) Update your WEI score. Start menu | right click Computer | Properties | click Windows Experience Index
If you have a different AGP card, let me know. I will make you a custom .inf.
I downloaded and installed Win7 RC just last night and found great difficulty installing the video driver. I wiped the drive and did a clean install. I made sure to download the current Win 7 Beta driver from ATI's web site with the same results as elvispresley; The driver doesn't install and windows says it didn't install correctly.
This I repeated several times removing the driver and trying to reinstall. I downloaded the Vista 32 driver and had the same problem. Then I went so far as to attempt updating the driver in the device manager and pointing to where the driver was and windows 7 still could not see it and could not install it. I don't get it. Any help?

(Or again, could be chipset but I'd try this first.)Download the normal Catalyst 9.9 32 bit for Windows 7 and extract it to C:ATI.Here is the .inf you should use. Download it and copy/paste it directly over the existing one in C:ATISupport9-9_vista32_win7_32..:1-CLICK Web hosting - Easy Filehosting Now install using device manager the same as you did before.
I had just installed a clean copy not an upgrade copy windows 7, the "Ati Radoen hd 3650 agp video card" and the version 9.11 catalyst software that came with it. However when I rebooted the display was so distorted that I had to reinstall my original video card to make my comp usable.
I have spent the past few days searching for updated drives or a fix for windows 7 without any luck. Does anyone know when and were the drives for this card will become available or a way to make it functional until there are.
I recently got a ATI 3850 for my PC, i set everything up and i come to install the CCC & Driver i get an error message which says Failed To Load Detection Driver when i boot my PC in safe mode the monitor is clear which is normal but when i boot it normally (Windows 7 64 Home) i get lines going horizontal across my screen.
I searched now for a while in google and on the intel web pages where I can download the newestIntel core i5-2400 Chipset driver for 64bit Win7andIntel core i5-2400 VGA driver for 64bit Win7I found only specification here: Intel CoreDoes anyone know the exact URL where these drivers are downloadable?
My story is simple, I bought a Sapphire HD 3850 512mb DDR3 !AGP! and i want 9.6 catalyst drivers installed NOW!
Well, I had to manually install the drivers first. So make sure your drivers are already extracted to your c: or w/e.
www.otleague.net/stuff/9.6_32_bit_hotfix.zip
This link will take you to my Problem Step Recorded (psr.exe) movie of how I got my drivers from the 9.6 Catalyst.
After I restarted I than installed the CCC from the C:atiSupport9-6_agp-hotfix_vista32_dd_cccSetup.exe. (hotfixs are for AGP cards only) You can use the setup know beacuse it doesn't need to install your drivers And boom I hope it works for you, like it has for me.
It took me close to a week of trail and error to get this answer.
I recently installed Windows 7 (64 bit) on my computer and I have yet to get working drivers for my Poworcolor 3850 AGP card. I've tried all the Catalyst suites, inlcuding those with hotfixes. I've tried manually installing multiple drivers through the Device Manager and still no dice. Everything else hardware wise runs just fine. Any ideas?
My m'board is Gigabyte GA-K8U-939 with Athlon X2 2.6 GHz and 3GB DDR. Windows 7 x64 detected the card but had an yellow symbol with the status code 43. Aero could not be enabled because of that. A poster torrentg seems to have sorted out this particular issue for a lot of people. I tried all his suggestions but the code 43 exists.
I have Radeon HD 3850 AGP and Windows 7, and I tried to do almost everything .I installed 9.12 drivers, 9.12 drivers with adding CL_91526 from the topic above), 9.11 drivers,9.11 drivers with Hotfix (ATI), 9.11 drivers with adding CL_91526, manual driver install by right click.Absolutely no changes and everytime the same ... During and after installing (before reboot) no changes in Device Manager, having "ATI Radeon 3850 " (or "ATI Radeon 3800 series" or something like that...) with yellow triangle and Microsoft Co. driver. And after reboot no changes with it, an error message with something like "Driver didn't install correctly, please install proper driver" ( though in ATI install log you can see that everything was installed succesfully). So after reboot I still see my VGA like "ATI Radeon 3800 series" with Microsoft driver and of course no changes in monitor resolution and all. If I try to delete microsoft driver (and device), and then install radeon drivers , during installation I absolutely just don't have any VGA in Device manager. And after reboot Windows 7 "finds" VGA and install from internet microsoft driver, so I can see "ATI Radeon HD 3850 (Microsoft Corporation WDDM 1.1)" in Device Manager.
I've recently upgraded to windows 7 x86, and it works great. The only problem I have is that my ati mobility radeon 3650 graphics card doesn't seem to want to work.
I've tried reinstalling the drivers several times using several different versions of the driver (win7beta, vista32, mobilitymodded, unmobilitymodded).
Whenever I try starting up with the card enabled, the screen goes blank. After reinstalling the driver, everything but the wallpaper goes away. Can anyone help?
I have a Sapphire Radeon HD3850 AGP card in my system but windows will not install the driver from the latest release of the ATI Catalyst driver install. Instead it defaults to the Standard VGA
From what i have read on these forums i may need to change some information the CH87739.inf file for the driver.
I see a memeber called torrentg had posted a modified .inf file but the download limit has been reached. Is there any chance of posting again? Or perhaps positing its contents into the replay.
I have a Dell Dimensions 2400 purchased in 2005. Can I install Windows 7? The thing is running very slow and I was wondering if it would be better to do a clean install of Windows 7 or just reinstall windows xp
I installed a clean version of windows 7 ultimate and everything seemed to run fine for a few weeks, then I started getting messages saying that the display driver has crashed and recovered.So I went to the nvidia site and downloaded the drivers for my graphic card, but now sometimes the computer completely freezes up, making me manually power down and restart the computer again.I uninstalled the nvidia drivers from their site, but I still get the freeze up nearly every day.I also have the yellow exclamation mark under other devices video controller in device manager, and can't find a driver for it.
Need to Make DDR3 2400 Stable. I have been able to get my system to post and sometimes get into windows having my ram set to DDR3 2400. However I have yet to make it run stable enough to trust it. IE blue screens. Does anyone know simple things to check and what to set into the bios?
I have recently loaded Windows 7 (Home Premium) on to a Dell Dimension 2400 (32 bit). Installation went smoothly but screen resolution is stuck at 480 x 640 which makes the computer practically unworkable. I understand (but am nor sure) that Dell does not support Windows 7 on this machine and the only solution is a new video card.
I'm working on a re-install of all components following a complete corruption of the boot sector on my drive which could not be fixed with repairs. The last time I installed everything fresh, I had no issues. Between then and now, there have been no hardware changes on my system, but now I am having issues installing the IDT Codecs. I keep getting an error along the following lines: Quote: ExitError: Error=Device Object not present, restart the system and run setup again. Running under compatibility mode, and running drivers from both the motherboard CD and the manufacturer website both have the same effect. The CD, when booted, says "This OS not support!" and only contains 32-bit vista codecs. ECS' website download indicates the IDT drivers as being compatible with Windows 7. Both do not work. It is almost as if the hardware "disappeared," despite the fact that I was using the drivers quite successfully till just 2 days ago, when the boot sector went kaput.
Windows has installed its own default set, which do nothing to power the 8mm jacks which I use with my speakers, but instead put sound through the HDMI, which is useless because I use a dedicated graphics card. I have tried uninstalling this codec and re-installing IDT, to no effect. Windows replaces with its own default codec.I have referenced this thread here, but offered solutions do not seem to work for me: Intel IDT Audio Driver will not install
I have a simple question, I recently fresh installed Windows7 and was wondering if I should Install the new mobo drivers from the ASUS site (i have an ASUS P5Q Pro) or should I just keep the current microsoft drives for all the chipsets/lan/etc. The only Thing I installed was the Realtek sound driver. Would there be any advantages to install proper drivers? because right now my computer runs perfectly stable and smooth using the Windows7 ones.
