Hi there,

My name's Mat I'm from Poland.

I've got Toshiba Satellite A75-S213 with ATI RADEON 9000 IGP. I bought it 3 moths ago and I got angry because many games are very slow. So I decided to use Patie's mod tool in order to improve this piece of junk.
I did all according to Patie's instruction. I tired 2 ATI Catalyst versions 5.8 abd 5.11. Unfortunately in both cases when I wanted to play in Call of Duty I obtained massage from Windows "Fatal error: Could not load OpenGL" and COD Console:
...calling CDS: ok
...created window@0,0 (640x480)
Initializing OpenGL driver
...getting DC: succeeded
...GLW_ChoosePFD( 32, 24, 8 )
...35 PFDs found
...GLW_ChoosePFD failed
...GLW_ChoosePFD( 32, 24, 0 )
...35 PFDs found
...GLW_ChoosePFD failed
...failed to find an appropriate PIXELFORMAT
...restoring display settings
...WARNING: could not set the given mode (3)
...shutting down QGL
...unloading OpenGL DLL
----- CL_Shutdown -----
RE_Shutdown( 1 )
-----------------------
Hunk_Clear: reset the hunk ok
Could not load OpenGL. Make sure that you have the latest drivers for your video card from the manufacturer's web site.


Could anybody help me? Please!!!


See you,
Mat

PS. Sorry guys for my English.

Hi Patje,
I use COMPAQ Presario X1079 with moblilty radeon 9200. These is no problem to install those files. After rebooting the system, screen is all black and can't show anything.
Anything else I could try?

Thanks,
Devil

Hello Patje.

I have a chronic problem with my ATI Radeon IGP 320M, when using ATI Catalyst versions above... 4.10.
Yeah I know that's a looong time ago, but 4.10 was the last version I got to work using your modtool, but since it was then not compatible with Catalyst 4.11 or 4.12, which were the last version at that time, I decided to stick with a working Catalyst 4.10.

Today, I've finally tried the latest ATI drivers (Catalyst 5.11, that is) and downloaded your latest modtool version 3.0.

The setup worked well, no "inf error", no apparent bug at all, so I thought : "Gee, now it works !"

Unfortunately for me, when I did the DVD playing test with PowerDVD after rebooting, only still images could display properly, whereas video files resulted in a full black screen.

I have to precise that I was already having the very SAME problem when I was trying Catalyst 4.11 and 4.12 (I think it it was during the time between the version 1 and 2 of you modtool, but not sure however).

Unfortunately, I have stayed quite some time not trying to follow the evolution of your modtool, so I don't know anymore which version of your modtool would work with which version of ATI Catalyst drivers...

Now my DVD players show black screens instead of video, no matter which player I use...

HELP ! Compaq Presario 2100, WinXP SP2, ATI Radeon IGP 320M.

Oh, I've read all the posts in this forum. Does my problem have anything to do with which version of Microsoft .NET Framework is installed on my computer ?

If so, I admit I have every Windows Update update, including Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Beta.


Thanks in advance to anyone who could help me... I'm really stuck in this DVD playback problem for a long time now.

Thinking twice about it, I don't think .NET Framework is the problem, since I've had this DVD playback problem a long time ago, and there was a different version of .NET Framework at that time.

Hey everyone,

Here's something I'd really like to know :

which catalyst versions does Patje's modtool version 2.2 support ? I already known the modtool version 3 begins with catalyst 5.9.

Since version 3 didn't work for me, I have to find out with which catalyst version my previous modtool (that is version 2.2) works.

Anybody knows where I can find this kind of information ?

Thanks in advance,

NewBie88

Request: powercolor X550 support. Beleive it or not the product doesnt show on powercolor/Tul's website, and they only link to generic 32 bit drivers.

Running win XP x64, i get a thunk.exe error installing the standard drivers and everyones general advice has been to run your tool, and get it added into the INF file.

Basically thats all i want, is the ability to install x64 drivers for this bitch, and your tool seems the easiest way...

noes

Hi, i used the mod on the latest x64 drivers, v5.12. It is working all right, as far as I can tell, but I cannot boot the ATi CCC. It starts, shows the black CCC intro screen and goes idle. I have the latest version of WindowsXP x64, including the .NET framework x64 2.0.

Does anyone has any experience with this?

Thank you in advance!

noes

FLH_Sky

Hello,

I've installed the newest 5.12 using the Mobility Modder V3.
ATI doesn't release a control panel version anymore so I had to install the CCC.
But now I miss the Powerplay option?
Can you help me to find or activate it?

Best regards

Ok, here is my problem.. it works fine in XP Pro X64

But in XP Home 32 bit on my Emachines M6805 Mobility Radeon 9600 64MB it only goes to 1024x768 not the 1280x800 it should be at. its a 15.4" widescreen. this is with the mobility modder v3.1 what can i do to get my resolution back? I'm using the Regular Radon 5.13 i iahve also tried from 5.10 - 5.12 no differance

Does anybody know if the next version will support Xpress 200M? This version does not, and the ATI IGP drivers don't work nor do the normal catalysts. Currently only the Omega Drivers and the drivers from the Toshiba website work.

Hi there,

has anyone tried the new 5.13 catalyst with the modder?
I have problems getting it working on a 1680*1050 display even after patching the inf-file by myself.
Mobility drivers still does not provide this resolution.
Thx in advance,

Sebastian

PS: Powerstrip is not working, because Windows is denying the resolution 1680x1050

I am having troubles installing the drivers after I mod them. I have tried with both the omega and standard issue ATI drivers but after applying the mod to them and attempting to install I get a dialog box titled Severe and the context including "Setup will only run in Administrator Mode. Setup is aborting." I am logged in as the administrator on my computer and have no programs blocking access or anything, so I'm not sure whats up. Really need to get new drivers on this laptop so a quick response would be greatly appreciated!



Thanks!

thanks

UPDATE

i realised i was using the wrong drivers. after getting the correct drivers, i and using the DH tool to make it mobile i still got a INF NO VIDEO found error message.

harisbrown

Any news yet on getting 1280x800 to work? I've tried v3 and v3.1 with several versions of ATI's drivers and I'm having the same problems as several others getting stuck with 10x7. I even tried using powerstrip to change the resolution manually, but all it does is create scroll bars if I try to set the res higher than 10x7. If anyone knows how to manually change a .inf file, registry setting, or whatever to get my monitor back to widescreen I would really appreciate it.

Thanks

I was being curious but which cat. Drivers are supported with this. I have a Radeon 9000 and the newest driver out is 6.1. Before I attempt to install it I was just wanting to see which set of drivers I should dl. Thanks for all of the help

knots1

Hello Jqrizzle I don't think that the new radeon drivers do much for your card I have a 9000 too and I can't see any improvement with new drivers later then the 4.8 one.
The 5.0 and above give me only problems our card is simply to old.

Jgrizzle

Thanks for the reply I installed 5.11 and so far had no troubles out of it. What sort of issues did you run into with the 5.0 and up?

Hi there, I have an IGP 345m, xp2, Compaq 2533AH. After I finished running the modder and it asked to proceed to install catalyst 6.1, I received this error msg:

"error installing ikernel.exe: (0x10000)"

Is this an installshield prob? Do I need to uninstall my OEM driver and use driver cleaner?

Any help is really appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi there from Germany,

I have downloaded the mod tool, but it will not run. there is a msg, that it is not a proper windows32 application.

My main problem is the horrible performance of the ati radeon mobility 9700 card. Only when my children want to play games, the graphics collapse.

Thx

Gan

Hi,

I have the same problem as the guys above.
Deinstalling the normal drivers (rebooting...ah and i used driver cleaner :-P ^^) modding the new ATI drivers, install them reboot again... and my native resolution of 1280X800 is gone.
Not quiet sure what to do about this ^^
Tried the Omega drivers too but the same problem here as well.

Before I reeinstalled my system i used you driver modder too and it worked (after a while of trying).

But this time i tried all the things i knew of and it still doesnt work :/

Would be nice if you could provide help in any way

I know it has been said a few times before but there wasnt really an answer ^^

(System: Notebook Amilo A 1630 WinXP SP2 ATI Mobility Radeon 9700)

HardwareFee

Try using the genuine ATI Mobile Catalyst Drivers (http://www.ati.com/online/mobilecatalyst/).
Works on mine (Amilo D 1840, 9600pro) since 4 or 5 releases.

Hello, I don't have a mobility issue, but my error seems to be the same as the ones described here. I have a new machine that I have built with XP 64. I have an ATI X1900XT and when I try to install the drivers it gives me the "Thunk.exe" "INF not found" Will your mod tool fix my problem? Thanks for the help.

Ray

patje

Ray,

No, the modtool won't fix that problem. I tought the Thunk.exe was related to the .net framework. Do you have the .net framework installed?
Also the 6.2 driver came out yesterday, give em a try.

Hi There,

has anyone tested the 6.2 mobility yet?
Tried to install them and my notebook had graphic problems, desktop could not be seen, only lots of colorful pigments.
After installing the 6.1 again, everything was fine.
6.2 mobility seems to be disfunctional.

See you,

Sebastian
