W7 And ThinkPad T400 ATI Radeon 3400 Series Driver
May 12, 2009
I have a T400 which has the following two display adapters:
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series
Mobile Intel(R) 45 Express Chipset Family
After installing Windows 7 and checking device manager, the ATI adapter does show up under the "Display adapters' section, but it has a ! sign on it, and if I click for details, it says:
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
I tried downoading and installing this:
Lenovo Support & downloads - ThinkPad Switchable Graphics Driver for Windows Vista 32bit and 64bit - ThinkPad T400, R400, T500, W500
and when I rebooted, it went through some diagnostic tests in a cmd window to finish installation. But when I checked the device manager again, the ATI adapter still says it cannot start.
I also tried this:
ATI Catalystâ„¢ Mobility Display Driver
which I got to by selecting Windows 7 32-bit > Mobility Radeon > Mobility Radeon HD 3000 series.
It seemed to install OK, but I got a message which I've gotten with previous attempts, which says:
"The Catalyst Control Center is not supported by the driver version of your enambled graphics adapter. Please update your ATI graphics driver, or enable your ATI adapter using the Displays manager."
I went to the device manager, right-clicked on the ATI adapter and did Update Driver, and it did at first find a better match but said it couldn't be installed with the same error message from above (Code 10). Now, when I try to update the driver again, it says the best driver software is already installed.
I have a ThinkPad T400 and I'm dual-booting Vista and 7 (but I only really use 7). In 7, when you press Windows+P, you get 4 display options: Computer Only, Duplicate, Extend, and Projector Only. Since I just have one laptop screen, I obviously want Computer Only. But every time I close the lid (or restart), it reverts back to an Extended display, which means when I move the cursor to the right of the screen to use a scrollbar, close a maximized window, or desktop peek, I have to be precise or else the cursor will fly off the right side of the screen into my non-existent extended display.
i went into Windows 7 64 bit, Mobility Radeon, Mobility Radeon HD 300 Series and installed their driver. Everything went smoothly. But when i get into any game i get horrible performance compared to the original driver Windows 7 installled automatically (WDDM 1.1). My framerates halfed the usual ones o got, and sometimes less.
Can anybody confirm if this is normal considering these are beta drivers, or am i unlucky here? I was forced to roll back my driver and now im getting much stable fps...
I'm installed Windows 7 on my laptop (Gateway ML 3109) and I'm currently using a Gateway ML3109 laptop. It came with Vista already installed.I installed Windows 7 32bit now and I'm having problems with the video drivers.where can i get download for (ATI RADEON XPRESS 200M Series Driver for Windows 7)?

I recently decided to update my graphics drivers on my pc but its not going too well to start of here are my PC specs,
[code]...
So when I go to update my drivers to radeon website select the card series go win 7 64 and download the drivers,Before I install the drivers I go to control panel add/remove and remove the old driver software as the website instructed,after all the old stuff is removed I restart to be safe and install new driver software,no errors during the installation but as soon as its done monitor goes dark the pc fans start to work loudly,I wait a little with no success I power down the PC and turn it back on,starting PC back up everything works for about a minute until catalyst control center decides to load its self at which point blam black screen and pc shuts off at which point I have no choice to go safe mode and roll back to previous drivers,I tried doing it thru device manager internet option but it just told me im all up to date possibly because i never update my windows and updates are turned off.I know Im not update on drivers my software according to catalyst is 11.5 and missing some important drivers
Ok so unfortunately the only OS i have is Windows 7 as my XP disk do not work. Yes I know that sucks.
I'm usually good with this sort of problem however this time im uncertain Of what i need to do. I kind of understand whats been said in other topics but I would like someone to make it clear on what i need to do with a little more detail then provided in other topics. I need to get Catalyst installed as well ..

I have a Satellite 215 A4747 laptop with Vista, which has the Radeon x1200 video card.
Now it may be the fact that I installed the 64 bit version of Windows 7 and the card just does not have the driver support for it, but I spent 2 hours trying different things and it will not take. I am going to try the 32 bit version tonight and see if I have better luck. I reinstalled Vista in the interim, but not happy with vista.
