ATI driver - All versions & updates post here (Updated: 10.7)

[itlvk]

Software Description

Windows Vista 32 & 64-bit ATI Display driver, this is a beta.



This is a beta version of the upcoming Catalyst 7.1 Radeon driver from ATI/AMD. We are sure a lot of people will be really pleased to see it. The revision build of this archive is 8.33 and should be an interesting driver for sure. I can not stress enough that this is a beta driver which is distributed by ASUS. You use it at your own risk.

Should you try them out then pelase share you experiences in this forum thread. In it's original form the driver is a steep 150 MB download. We have been able to recrunch the data a tad better, yet it's still a 91 MB download.

For those that have an issue with the installation:

Install the new beta drivers.. it only installs the CCC at this point.. giving an error for both the display drivers and the avstream drivers.

Then reboot, go into the device manager, updated the main graphics drivers and point it to the folder with the beta drivers.. and that has the display drivers to install properly.

On the next startup windows will ask to help it install the avstream drivers! Point it to the folder with the WDM drivers. Now all seems to work fine. Your graphics card will carry an ASUS label .. but do not worry about that.

Folding@Home uses distributed computing to simulate protein folding, the workload is broken up into small work units and distributed across hundreds of thousands of computers over the internet. You can help find the cure to many different diseases! To join Folding@Home, follow these steps:

Download ATI's Catalyst™ software suite
Download the Folding@Home GPU client application Note: If you do not have an ATI Radeon™ X1600 or higher, then download the CPU client.
If you have an ATI Radeon™ X1600 or higher, download the GPU client (either console or GUI version) not to be confused with the CPU "Graphical client".
