if you don't wish support old card on GNU/Linux, do world better , remove your secrets from,drivers and publish them in Opensource.

p.s.
otherwise, you do give a one choise for users of older video cards... not to buy your videocard because of poor support.

respectfully yours , user ATI/AMD

P.S. Sorry, but I bad speak English and using Google Translate.

Issue Details

Self-diagnosis tells me that the card pulls in more PCI bandwidth to produce the same graphics.

I am experiencing skippy/choppy audio coming from my PCIe audio interface (MOTU 24i/o) from the moment I updated the drivers. (2 days ago) because the previous version of drivers I installed cause my OS to halt with "ati2dvag" stuck in infinite loop when working with hardware acceleration.

Additional Details
- I've turned off all hardware acceleration and reduced my display resolution, including disabling my secondary monitor, choppy sound is still experienced. I cannot work with my audio workstation in this condition.

Very frustrated, I paid alot of money for this PC because I thought it would be easily upgradable and future proof. I thought with the I7 the ram should have been pretty much plug and play, especially since alot of my other components are AMD also. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I need an AMD graphics card with Display Port output to drive the monitor at 2560 x 1600.

I do not play games, so the card can be pretty vanilla but cannot require more power than the power supply can produce (300W I think).

A legacy card will probably do the trick but which one?

Would appreciate help in choosing an appropriate card for this application.

Thank you.

When I first installed 13.4 via Catalyst Install Manager, it gave me an option under component selection to install an AMD Display Driver (and I did), but when running the Install Manager agian to reinstall, the Display Driver no longer appears as an option.  Thinking that maybe it was because I was trying to install the same Display Driver version, I ran the installer for the 13.5 BETA 2, but a Display Driver does not appear on that list of components, either.  I don't have Catalyst Control Center installed and I don't get the option to install it from the Install Managers of either 13.4 or 13.5.  Everything else on the component list (AMD APP SDK, Accelerated Video, Audio Driver, etc. etc.) claims to be installed and up-to-date in both 13.4 and 13.5.  

It seems like something may be wrong with the Install Manager detecting my hardware/software.  Is there another way to verify the version of the Display Driver to ensure that I have the latest driver installed?  And has another experienced something like this before?  

I removed one of the video adapter, and now can not restore it. Drivers are installed on another video card, and this one - custom error 31. 

Installing Catalyst AGP Hotfix 12.6 reports "Successful", but doesn't work (leaves me with no videocard drivers/unable to use monitor's native resolution).  Perhaps because these are the only components it will offer to install:

I've long had to re-install the Catalyst AGP Hotfix whenever I run SFC /SCANNOW (which is a valuable troubleshooting step, but for some reason it has always 'broken' my Catalyst install; I've long been curious about this 'mystery' too).

But now, for the first time, after SFC /SCANNOW I'm only able to re-install 11.11, upgrades to 12.6 don't work.

Incidentally, if I don't run SFC /SCANNOW I can't uninstall Catalyst AGP Hotfix 11.11.  (Oh, the uninstaller completes successfully but even on reboot I've still got proper native resolution only the drivers can provide.)

Graphics Card

HIS Radeon HD 4670 IceQ Native HDMI 1 GB DDR3 AGP Graphics Card (H467QS1GHA)

AMD Catalyst Driver History

I started with 11.1 which I had to stick with (because of the common "ati2mtag.sys" BSOD) until 11.10.  I've long used 11.11

This week I've unsuccessfully tried both AGP 12.6 and this 13.1 both without, and with, first uninstalling the previous versions as recommended here (using Driver Fusion 1.5.0 to remove the previous version).

After each round of testing I revert via a Ghost backup system image to 11.11

On the advice of my room mate, and a video card rating site, I switched from an nVidia card to an ATI card.  He was getting a new one, and it was an upgrade for me (according to the rateing site).

Since I 'upgraded' to the new card, I've been having tremendous difficulty getting this card to function with Minecraft.

I am able to play other games, like league of Legends, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - Multi Player and Wizard101, but every time I try to run minecraft i get the following error log:

[quote]Bad video card drivers!

Minecraft was unable to start because it failed to find an accelerated OpenGL mode.
This can usually be fixed by updating the video card drivers.

I need Minecraft to work because I'm a co-owner of a server.  My presence is required.

I have downloaded and installed Catalyst versions from 8.0 to 13.whatever, and 9.1 was suggested by another site.  All except the latest Catalyst (Which doesn't even support this card) install without fail.  All others 'stop working' after I click the Install button.
I've even gone deeper into the C:\ATI or C:\AMD folder and run the setup from the 'bin' folder ('bin64' crashes as stated above).

It doesn't matter what I do it seems to not want to work.  Here are the steps I took with the install that actually worked.
1. Remove old drivers from Microsoft found on Device Manager.
2. Run C:\AMD\AMD_Catalyst_13.3_Beta3\Setup.exe as Administrator.
3. Do a little dance when it didn't crash / stop working
4. Restart my machine.
5. Run Minecraft and hold my breath.
6. Pull out some more hair when it crashed.
7. Have a 'breath of fresh air'.
8. Come here to post the issue.

If anyone knows how to fix this, please let me know.  I'm starting to go bald...

I use 3 monitors as single monitors attached to 3 of the 4 ports the 2 4650s give me.  The 3 monitors on the 6850 are built into an Eyefinity 1x3 wide display group.

I installed the new catalyst 13.1, and only the 6850 worked.  The 4650s come up as "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)".  I've uninstalled everything, rebooted, and if I install the Catalyst 12.6, I get all cards working again (4650s on driver 8.920.0.0), but I can't run the Catalyst control panel to reconfigure my Eyefinity group, I get an error that it can't find any AMD graphics cards.  So I update just the driver for the 6850 to the 13.1 driver package, and my 4650s are broken again as soon as that driver becomes active on the 6850.

I just want to go back to what was working, and I promise I'll never try to update my drivers again, no matter how often I have to reboot to get rid of artifacting.

I need to play game with 75herz refreshrate (what is normal for 800x600 resolution i have chosen for game) and doesntmatter what resolution to use for desktop (of course it could be only 60hz with 1900x1200). So when I choose "enable GPU scaling: maintain aspect ratio" there is no problems except one: 4:3 is working only with 60hz. Picture changes perfectly from desktop to game with that black lines I needed but refreshrate of monitor that is the problem.

In few words: I could not choose with what frequence I can set monitor to maintain aspect ratio.

The card itself stays seriously hot (far too hot to touch for more than a second), and the fan runs at 100% constantly and is quite noisy. The card itself performs fine, however the slightly odd thing is that the fan is pushing out barely warm air.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to stop the fan running constantly or to make it more effective at actually cooling the card ?

Thanks in advance.

I had two Dell monitors hooked up to it. One was the basic 19" flat panel, the other was a Dell 19" Ultra Sharp. I has a problem with the mouse jumping about 4 inches vertically when moving from one screen to the other. I played around with the settings and couldn't get it any better. Thought it was because the monitors were different (had the smae problem at work until I got two monitors that were exactly the same).

I wanted to upgrade my monitors anyway, and thought that would take care of the problem. I just purchased two new Samsung 23" 1920x1080 monitors, and still have the same problem!! The mouse moves vertically about 4" when  moving from monitor to the other.

Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can correct this problem?

rebooted yesterday & suddenly desktop would not fit in screen & everything was bigger in XP (ati-radeon hd4770 graphics card, acer 22" lcd monitor).

 I have to move the mouse along the borders of the desktop to see stuff thats off screen.

 I had been using 1680x1050 res (max res of the monitor) but found I could fit the whole desktop to the screen if I dropped down to the next res of 1600x1200 & everything then got smaller. However thats a diff aspect ratio & makes pics & vids looked 'stretched'.

 I booted to win7-64 & found everything bigger there also but the whole desktop at least fit the screen, the res had changed to 1024x768. I bumped it up to 1600x1200 (for some reason 1680x1050 not available) & that reduced the hugh icon size but still have the aspect ratio problem.

 Booted to ubuntu partition & found video look/specs there same as in win7-64.

 Any ideas?

It worked fine on Windows 7 with no issues.

Any information on how to fix this minor issue would be highly appreciated!

My Brother-in-laws HP a1712n Vista mobo died a month ago.

I had a MS-7191 so I added Athlon 64 X2 4200, 2gb mem & second Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 320gb.

Backed up everything he wanted to save on my HD. Now I have 2 blank Seagate NTFS formated plugged in SATA 1&2 and XP Pro disc.

MS-7191 manual says:

Install the RAID driver during OS boot
a. Press F6 for third party SCSI or driver installation at the beginning of the
text mode installation.
b. Press ‘s’ when setup asks if you want to specify an additional device,
and insert the diskette or CD labelled ‘ATI SATARaid Driver Installation
Disk’. (You’ll have to remove the OS installation CD first.)
c. Press ‘Enter’ and select ‘ATI Serial ATA Controller’
d. Press ‘Enter’ to continue with text mode setup.

There never was a  'ATI SATARaid Driver Installation Disk’ I have ATI_Chipset_Driver_8.10 from MSI site & 13-1_xp32-64_raid from AMD site unziped. Chipset is ATI SB450

What files exactly do I need on a CD or floppy? Havn't heard from anyone on MSI forum except to say they only know you have to make a floppy.

]]> http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=449&threadid=164770 2013-03-15T15:17:36 -05.00 eflow 1 I have a MSI GX623 notebook with Mobility HD4670 GPU, 512MB. Game is running fine on both medium and low settings, no fps drop or whatever, but for some reason, at random time intervals (from 2 minutes to few hours) screen goes black, sound plays for a while and then starts looping a bit of it. Only notebook restart is working.

Any help regarding this problem is very appreciated. Also please note, that I have 13.1 Catalyst, as well as latest game and Windows 7 updates installed. Other games (including WoW and Diablo 3) are working fine even with many background programs running. Hardware failure is also unlikely.
