I've been using these mod tools for XP for a very long time so I am not new to the scene when it comes to installing etc etc, but anyway, moving onto my problem, I still followed the guide on the main page for the Mobility Modder and I still end up with the "Failed to find any installable components" message (Screen shots here) http://www2.simslearning.co.uk/locke...screenshot.jpg
I used the official 7.4 installer from ATi/AMD's website I have an ATi Mobility Radeon X700 and normally for XP this always works, so I can't understand why on Vista Home Premium it doesn't. Any help would be appreciated ![]() Nit3m4re |

ok just to clarify do you mean the offical 7.4 driver from AMD's site? just to confirm you are using the new net modder and not the old modtool V4 right?
Can you please detail the exact steps you took once you downloaded the driver from AMD's site to your desktop. |

It looks like the drivers more or less installed successfully for me. My laptop is an MSI M-635 with an x700 Mobility chipset running Vista Business x32 and my previous drivers were the Microsoft default drivers for ATI chipsets that Vista ships with. I tested Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory, which I'd previously only been able to run windowed, and it now runs fullscreen just fine. The only issue is that I'm unable to get CCC to start (explained below).
Some notes about my particular setup. I've been having problems with ATI drivers for a long time on this laptop, even back on XP, where certain things like booting with my laptop unplugged or enabling a second display would cause corruption or no display at all except for the mouse cursor, so I'd been stuck using Microsoft's drivers since moving to Vista. The ATI patch notes said that the particular issue I was having was fixed in 7.3 and I'm glad to say that so far, with 7.4, that seems to be true. The last few times I attempted to install ATI drivers, I had to roll back to Microsoft drivers in Vista safe-mode because I could no longer see the screen when Windows booted. Because ATI's uninstaller doesn't work properly in safe mode, it left a lot of garbage on my system that I couldn't get rid of when using the MS drivers, which is probably the reason that the CCC doesn't want to run. I don't consider it a big deal since I've never liked using it anyway. Just as long as I can play new games, I'm happy. Thanks so much for the driver modder, DH crew. You have no idea how long I've been pulling my hair out waiting for my laptop to be usable for games again. You guys truly rock. |

Shame about the CCC issue you have always seemed to have. if you could email us a DX log file we could look into it and see if we can help you sort that out. Even if you cant get CCC working, the drivers are set by default to high quality mipmaps and no AA or AF (app/game controlled) which should work well for you with almost everything. |

7.4's downloaded from ATI/AMD and modded with the tool do not support the native resolution of my Uniwill 258KA with the 9600/9700 series radeon (1280 x 800). The highest it's letting me go is 1024 x 768.

Nit3m4re yes a dxdiag dump would help, because the hardware id is in there. Please send that to info@drivercleaner.net

Glad to hear it is working. I am working on adding more resolutions, so I hope the updated version will be ready soon.

Awesome!!!
Just a question: I've had trouble getting to play Blu-Ray movies on my HDTV with my Blu-Ray drive equiped laptop. PowerDVD complains that it was impossible to set up a secure connection (HDCP problem). I have a DVI port that Acer claims to support HDCP. My question is: If I convert the latest Catalyst drivers with this tool, will the drivers recognize and support HDCP on my DVI port? Thx for a great tool.

Works nicely for me as well. MSXML 4.0 is a must, otherwise it won't properly modify the installation scripts.
This is on Dell 8600, Radeon 9600 Pro Turbo, Catalyst 7.4, Vista Business

Unable to run CCC all together
I just got my ASUS F3Jp with ATI Mobility Radeon x1700. The first thing that happened when I started was an error message saying that CCC comand line has crashed.
I downloaded the modder according to the instructions along with ATI Catalyst 7.4 and followed the instructions. But still CCC just crashes for me... CCC Command line, CCC Monitoring program, it all crashes. Do you know of any solutions to issues like this? |

Zeatrix i am not sure if it will work, but if the mobility chip supports it then the modded driver should support it. Best way is just to try it and see if the HDCP works.
redsolar yep MSXML 4.0 is really needed that is why it is included in the installation steps. It is needed to modify the msi files so CCC and such can be installed. The msi files have the hardware id's in there so it would only install on those chips. I had to mod those to make them install. Helge25 what you can try is uninstall the ati display driver and control center and reinstall the driver and control center, maybe that fixes it. Not sure but i hear from others that CCC sometimes give problems on Vista. Hope ati will fix that.
