I can't get my Linux system to accept proprietary drivers for my ATI graphics card; any suggestions? It had worked fine before on the same Linux system, but I took off the system to briefly install XP to update the bios---and since then, it will only use the open source drivers. The bios update is the correct one, by the way; I was certain to check it well before upgrading. I have tried everything I can think of, but it positively will not use the proprietary drivers. Any suggestions?

ATI Graphics Card Driver is Sh*t? "Could not load file or assembly 'MOM.Implementation, Version=2.03257.27085, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=90ba9c70f846762e' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified." 1. I get this on reboot. 2. I reinstall driver. 3. See "1." 4. I uninstall driver and reboot. 5. See "1." 6. After uninstalling, I reinstall only the driver and reboot. 7. See "1." 8. I install Catalyst Control Center with driver already installed, and reboot. 9. See "1." 10. I uninstall all that and install the "Option 1" from the ATI site and reboot. 11. See "1." I'm never buying ATI again, this is f*cking ridiculous. I actually need to use the CCC. When I say "driver" I mean, the only driver you can get from ATI's site for my hardware (4800 series). I assume ATI updates their site, and the driver I have been using says 1/29/09.

Trouble installing ATI 1300X graphics card to T6420 Emachine? I have a 2006 emachine T6420 with an nVidia IGP standard with this model. I would like to install an ATI 1300X 256 DDR2 graphics card in the PCI express slot. After multiple attempts and speaking with "Tech's" from both Gateway & ATI I am still having problems. The machine doesn't even recognize that I have new hardware plugged into the PCI slot. When I uninstall the nVidia graphics drivers using driver clean up I am still not able to install the ATI catalyst driver suite. Error: No driver or hardware is installed even though it is. I have upgraded to a 400A power supply but not sure if that is enougy or if this would cause the system to not recognize the new graphics card. Please help!

Graphics card / driver question? Ok I'll take this from the top. About 3 weeks ago I got a new computer, and ever since then whenever I turn on my computer, i get this message: The Catalyst Control Center is not supported by the driver version of your enabled graphics adapter. Please update your ATI graphics driver, or enable your ATI adapter using the Displays Manager. Ok so that message pops up every time I turn on my computer and up until now, I could just press OK and be done with it until the next time I turned on my computer. I play the game World of Warcraft and this computer is amazing for it. It has a quad core processor, each an Intel(R) Core (TM) i5 CPU 750 @ 2.67 GHz, 6 gigs of ram and originally came with an ATI Radeon HD 4350 video card. My old computer had a better one though, an NVIDIA GeForce9500 GT. All of this is a sweet set up for a gamer, as I always get max frames per second (60 or so in WoW). Now I can't stress enough that now I am using the NVIDIA graphics card, and ATI Radeon is GONE. I took that one out and replaced it with the NVIDIA yet im still getting an error about the ATI one. I'm super confused why I was getting an error message about a video card that I don't have anymore to begin with, but I ignored it for a while. Now however, when I play WoW, I have periods of about 30-45 seconds where my frame rate drops down to between 2-5 frames per second. This seems to happen about every 3-5 minutes and has happened more and more frequently as time goes on. Today I'd say that its almost a 50% uptime of having horrible frames. This is a brand new computer and the only thing I can thing that I can think of is that it's something to do with that error that I posted up top. Ive done everything I can think of. I went and downloaded the updated ATI driver just to humor it, I have searched endlessly for something called a "Displays Manager" without success and I've also just tried to wait the problem out. There is nothing downloading in the background, the frames per second happen in all scenarios in game, and like I said, the crap frames only last for about 40 sec at a time before it pops back to normal 60. The error message every time I start up my computer isn't what's truly bothering me. What's bothering me is my frames. This is a brand new computer, I shouldn't be having these problems and it's going to affect how well I can play it. If you think that what's happening in game and that error message I'm getting are a coincidence and you have an idea of how to fix my frame rate, please tell, but my money is betting that they're related, and if you have any idea how to make this warning go away, please do share. Ive spent hours on google searching for solutions to the errror message above, and most people say that it gets fixxed when they update the driver, yet my problem is that updating a driver for something that I'm not using isnt helping me. Please, do prevent me from having a stroke and help me solve this, much appreciated. ps this is the 3rd time ive posted this on yahoo answers, and something i failed to explain well is how I cant UNINSTALL the ati driver from my device manager because when i go under display adapters, it shows my CURRENT graphics card, my nvidia, not the one that everyone is telling me to uninstall.
ATI graphics card problem? i keep getting this pop up on my computer: "The Catalyst Control Centre is not supported by the driver version of your enabled graphics adapter.Please upgrade your ATI Graphics driver or enable your ATI Adapter using The Displays Manager" i have no idea what to do. my graphics card is an ATI Radeon HD 2400 any help on what i should do? i THINK it might have happened when i was trying to do a DXDIAG, i was searching Run with the Vista Start Search thing, and i just cclicked enter thinking Run would be the first thing found, but Restart runtime was the first thing there, so i had accidentally clicked that. could this be the cause of the problem? any help please :) another thing that might have been the cause was installing Microsoft .NET framework 1.1 yesterday. i was told to install it because of some game modding thing for GTA that i downloaded. it said i would have to download .NET 1.1 to run the modding kit... not sure if this could cause the problem im having. i dont really know alot about computers you see... thanks alot to archie123 i think this might be the problem :D

Help with ATI graphics card.? when i start up my computer, a box pops up which reads: "No ATI graphics driver is installed, or the ATI driver is not functioning properly. Please install the ATI driver appropriate for your ATI hardware." The problems is, i think that i might have accidentally deleted the ATI driver thingy when i was clearing off old files from my computer. what do i have to do to re-install the ATI driver to my computer without having to reboot it? by the way, my computer is a DELL INSPIRON E1505 if that helps to figure out what i need to do. thanx! Thanx Backwards...! i went to the xp site and got everything fixed right quick! YAY!!! :) thanx to all the others for your help also!
I have Windows Vista 64bit, and a ATI graphics card. Random static noises every few min. randomly?!? I keep hearing these random static burst noises that last for a second or two, and happen every couple of minutes whenever i'm playing music or videos {basically anything sound related] I've tried updating the graphics card drivers in case that was the problem and so far, its still happening. I just got the computer this year, so the jacks should still be good, and the audio cable i'm using is new also. [yes, it's plugged in right.] i'm just looking for possible sources other than faulty hardware, and if thats the case, is this a problem i can fix cheaply or easily?
If 64 bit in regard to graphics card is the same as 64 bit Microsoft Windows edition? I recently downloaded my latest ati radeon 4670 graphics card drivers. It did however ask me which If wanted before hand. Either a windows xp pro/ home or 64 bit. I was not sure so I took the windowsxp pro drivers. I am using a 64 bit intel r D processor. Did I do the correct thing. My system is Windows XP Pro. Motherboard is Asrock 4CoreDuel1 Sata2. Cheers.

ATI Graphics Card stopped working after Win XP Pro SP2 Reinstall? This all started when I decided to install CCleaner. I ran the scan and it deleted some windows important files so my computer wouldn't boot afterwards. I had to reinstall windows xp pro sp2 and now all of my softwares stopped functioning and the one which is annoying me the most is my graphics card. I want to keep sp2 and I don't want sp3 because the Microsoft UAA Bus Driver for High Definition Sound doesn't install correctly. Even on the sp2 the sound doesn't work. ok lets go back to what i was saying about my graphics card. It is an ATI Radeon HD 2400 Series. When I try to update or install the driver it tell me that it couldn't find my graphics card hardware. Here is some things I did: Delete regedit ATI files Delete ATI computer files Reboot And update from the ati amds site reboot and install ati drivers from CD Whatever I do it tells me that there is no ati hardware. I do not have a display or video or graphics thing in my device manager. Some help for this would be GREATLY appreciated.

Is it my illusion or are the latest graphics card drivers 10.2 causing worser game performance? I updated with latest graphics card drivers as well as catalyst for my Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4890 Over-clocked and I am experiencing worser performance with my PC games than I have before. I used before that the 9-12 drivers and they seem to be much better. I didn't have lag that much with Crysis. Also I notice that the game appears to stutter in NBA 2K10 while passing the ball to my opponent. Just Cause 2 Demo as well not as smooth as the previous ATI drivers. Tested FPS performance with Resident Evil 5 and now im getting only 60 FPS on max setting where as with older driver when I compared the results I had 90 FPS. So yeah I can actually see the bad performances with the latest drivers. I also heard bad news about the latest drivers causing problems with Battlefield Bad Company 2 from numerous forums including official EAs forums. So obviously im not gonna attempt to play BC2 with the latest drivers. Can anyone actually recommend me which are the best ati drivers from the older versions that cause the least troubles? Thanks!

Is there a way to check your graphics card? My friend needs to know what kind of graphics card he has but he cant figure out how. The driver for the card was deleted or something happened to it.

I need help! My graphics card (ATI RADEON 9800) isn't working! Any advice? I've been trying to load games on my computer, mainly Sims 2. I've downloaded all the most recent drivers for the card, DirectX 9.0c and Microsoft net framework 2. I know my computer meets all the requirements to play the game and I’ve downloaded patches from the Sims2 website too. When loading the game I get two error messages. "Failed to find any DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics adapters in this system! please make sure you have a DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics adapter and have installed all the latest drivers provided by the manufacturer. The application will now terminate." OR "VPU Recover has reset your graphics accelerator as it was no longer responding to graphics driver commands." After this second error it lets you send an automatic error report. I've done that a few times. What do I need to get it working? (If I'm not only contact me on IM) The card is inside the computer. I failed all the DXDIAG display tests. :(

My monitor turns off when I set the graphics card ATI X1550 to anything higher than basic VGA mode. Any ideas? The screen first goes blank as if its to apply new settings, and then it turns off after about 5 seconds. It's a new system I've put together. I've installed the motherboard drivers, and everything else works fine. The graphics card is Gecube X1550 128mb PCI-E. I've downloaded and installed the drivers for it from their web site, and they are the right drivers. Am I not doing something right, or is it a faulty graphics card?
Which drivers should I use for my graphics card? Should I use the drivers from the card maker (MSI) or the ones from the chipset maker (ATI)? The ATI drivers are much newer (last month) but seem to be more generic to the whole Radeon HD 4800 series where... the MSI drivers are older (just over a year old) but are specific to my Radeon HD 4850 card.
Installing graphics card ATI X1300? Ok, first my specs... I have an E-machines T3092 1gig PC-2700 ram On-board Nvidia MX 64MB graphics card AMD 64(single core) I have been through tech support with ATI and E-machines both for much to long. First I talked to ATI, they stated I had some windows malfunction so I reinstalled my OS, followed the step by step instructions on how to install the AGP graphics card, I made sure I downloaded all drivers/chipsets for my E-machines and disabled my on-board graphics card before I installed the ATI card. The installation for the drivers for the ATI card was no problem. I rebooted to have everything take effect. I tried playing "Alien Shooter 2 Vengeance" and "Dynasty Warriors 4 Hyper" that was easily played using my on-board graphics card, and on Alien Shooter the screen turns black for 3 seconds and then kicks me back to the desktop while Dynasty tell me I dont have the latest DirectX3D software, yet I have installed DirectX lastest version. Whats going on? Please help! x.x I have already gone into my Bios and set it to recognize the AGP slot on my motherboard as the primary graphics card. I have already reinstalled games(hence reinstalling OS several times then having to reinstall the games again) DirectX is up to date, the newest drivers for the graphics card are installed. Still having same problem.
After updating my graphics card drivers, I cant click on anything on my desktop? I recently tried to update my drivers for my ati sapphire 3850 1 gig gddr2 graphics card and everything went smooth until I rebooted my computer. As the system went to the desktop, I noticed I couldn't click on anything. About 3 weeks before this, I did a prank on my dad where you take a picture of the desktop and the next person who uses it thinks they are clicking on an icon but they are clickin on a picture. Now that you know what my desktop looks like, here is where the real problem started. The fake desktop picture gets loaded no problem. I wait for my backgrounds(I have dual monitors) on both monitors to load but nothing happens. My hdd led light isnt kicking on so im guessing it finished loading. I cant click on anything and I tried to use the window button on my keyboard to pull up the start menu(most of my important files are in my documents) and I attempt to go to my documents but nothing happened. I pull up task manager to see if there was anything unusual in one of the windows but nothing that I could see. I put my thumbstick drive in to see if it would pull up, nothing. I stick a cd in, nothing. All I downloaded the drivers for a was to play a game and the drivers needed updated anyhow so I went to the website and go the file, installed it, rebooted and the problem occured. Any help?!?!? I cant even get my start menu to pull up. I will try to take my graphics card out, clean it a bit, and stick it back in.
'detonator' type drivers for Rage 128 PRO Ultra graphics card? Okay, i was recently given a computer by a friend. I found out the motherboard was fried, and decided to scrap it for parts. I'm a very avid gamer, and i noticed there was a graphics card that was (literally) twice as good as my own. I installed it on my current computer, and the drivers that Windows has for it can't use it to its full potential. I was wondering if there are any drivers for ATI/AMD cards that are like the 'Detonator' series for Nvidia?
What is the latest driver for the ATI Mobility X1400 graphics card? I have checked Dell.com and there is a 2006 update, which is not the latest.

Help, trying to update my graphics card drivers!? So I've discerned that the reason some things show up funny in my sim's 2 game is due to my graphics card. I have a ATI Radeon X1250 with version 7.14.0010.0489 (so is that version 4.89? I dunno) and the date on it is 3/14/2007. We bought this computer in March (2008) so...it's not that old. Now when I go to the ATI website, X1250 isn't even listed in the drivers list. I did find something http://driverscollection.com/?H=Radeon%20X1250&By=ATI there but I have no idea which one to use. I don't want to mess the computer up. Oh and I have a 32-bit OS if you need to know. The computer is an Acer Aspire M3100. Please help me, I'm tired of stuff in my game looking like this: http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/7082/dogstretchie6.jpg *Kiss* Abyss, how is your poor mama? I know she was having a rough time. What with your constant STDs and infections. We bought it from Circuit City, where I work. Thrillseeker, I looked at that one but it says for Windows 64-bit, my OS is 32-bit. Does it matter? I have Vista Premium, so I need this one? http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx?p=vista32/common-vista32

Does anyone know where I can get a Windows vista rc1 driver for my ATI Radeon 9200se graphics card? If possible, I would like to have all the neat effects of Aero glass with my Radeon 9200se, but I think I need a driver for vista? Any help appreciated.
Can anyone help me with an ATI graphics card problem? I am a big Sims fan & ever since I got my laptop, I have been playing it on here. About 6 months ago, every time I inserted The Sims 2 disc, the screen turned blue & the computer shut itself down. It wouldn't switch on again until the disc had been removed. It was really sudden & left me confused. Another issue which arose at the same time was when I tried to watch YouTube videos in full screen. The same thing happened. The screen turned blue & the computer shut itself down. I rang up EA to try & figure out the problem & spoke to several experts who concluded that my graphics card was still using the 2005 driver, therefore out of date & I would need to update it, if I wanted to play The Sims 2. My graphics card is the ATI Radeon Xpress 200M Series. I found the appropriate driver update online & downloaded the installation wizard. All of this worked fine, with no problems. I completed the installation wizard & finished it, where it said that the driver had been installed successfully. I restarted my computer, as instructed & tried to play the game. It still didn't work. I checked the properties of my graphics card & it still said 2005! I have tried again several times since then, each time finding that the drivers claim to have been successfully installed & then checking to see that they haven't been updated from 2005. I don't know what to do! And any Sims fan will know just how addictive it is. Not being able to play it is driving me crazy! Help would be MUCH appreciated. Thanks.

Graphics card driver, imports but fails to install? Ok, I have a Dell Precision 370 with an ATI FireGL V3100 graphics card. Recently the HDD spindle started to go and I bought a new HDD and rebuilt the sys(XP, it needed the rebuild). The problem is no matter what I do I cannot install the drivers(Primary and secondary). I had the same problem with the old HDD in trying to update them. As default its running on shitty Generics. I remove all the drivers, and try install the new ones. It imports them but EVERY time as soon as the install wizard boots the whole machines freezes and must be manually booted down. I've tried drivers from multiple sources including Dell, the Dell driver disk, ATI (AMD) themselves and others. Same problem every time. I really need those drivers for video editing. Any hints or tips on a possible cause or solution? Thanks Madcat Thanks Crayola, my mistake though, I've tried that. Shoulda mentioned that. NB: Safe mode does not solve the problem. Is there any way to refres the firmware?

What's a cheap, linux-friendly NVIDIA or ATI graphics card? I've never bought one before, so I wouldn't know what would be the best card for a low price. All I have now is a NVIDIA Geforce2 Integrated GPU, so pretty much anything would be better. It has to be NVIDIA or ATI. If you know where to or how to get the driver then that would really help. Thanks!
