ATI Drivers Gone?
I just went to the ATI drivers site to see it there's an update to the
Radeon drivers for Vista (and a Vista version of MMC as well!) and found NO drivers at all, not even the RC1 driver that used to be there. Maybe we're in for an update soon! https://support.ati.com/ics/support/...olderID=571 2 Tom Lake |

The RC1 drivers are there now with the following note:
" Catalyst Beta Driver for Windows Vista RC1 Click here to find out if your PC is Vista ready Please Note: This driver release is not meant to be installed on Windows Vista RC2. The in the box RC2 drivers are more current than the ones posted for RC1. We will be posting a RC2 driver shortly. " "Tom Lake" wrote in message ...

I hope you have better luck then I did. I d/l the RC-1, tried 3 times
installing it (run as administrator), get a blue screen, fatal error, and reboots, it's then in a loop. I wrote ATI 3 weeks ago still no reply. Great tech support huh... "JW" wrote in message ...

I installed a new X1300 Radeon about a week ago. I used the posted drivers
(Catalyst on the web site) and it works well. Chris "JW" wrote in message ...

I also have a problem installing Vista (any build) using my ATI X1600 Pro AGP
512MB video card. I own 2 of these cards. One is a X1600 Pro AGP 256MB built by Diablotek and the other is a 512MB made by ATI. When using the 512MB card, during the "Completing installation" phase, the system gets the blue screen of death and shuts down less than a minute or so before Vista is installed. If I boot the system again I get the same error. If I boot in Safe Mode I get the message: "Installation can not be completed in safe mode" The Diablotek 256MB card works fine. This problem seems to be caused by a device driver stuck in an infinite loop or not programing the hardware correctly. I spoke to tech support at ATI but they refused to confirm others are having the same problem. We must wait for the formal release of Windows Vista to get support.

Is the BIOS up to date on the system with the card with the problem if it is
on a different system then the other card? "Mrlopez" wrote in message ... I also have a problem installing Vista (any build) using my ATI X1600 Pro AGP 512MB video card. I own 2 of these cards.

I've tried installing Vista on both Pc using each card. Which ever pc I put
the 512MB card in fails the same way. "JW" wrote: Is the BIOS up to date on the system with the card with the problem if it is on a different system then the other card?

What is shortly ?!? ;-)
And is there still a bug in the complete installer (09022006) ? Maybe ther should be a Readme about updating the drivers and installing the CCC alone after unpacking the whole ? That's how i got it running on RC1-64and X1900XT256 (njam,njam) "JW" wrote: The RC1 drivers are there now with the following note: " Catalyst Beta Driver for Windows Vista RC1 Click here to find out if your PC is Vista ready Please Note: This driver release is not meant to be installed on Windows Vista RC2.
