Re: Recently released ATI Catalyst & nVidia Forceware drivers

The second link is what was giving me the error. Can you try to see if u can dl the Catalyst software suite x64 for Vista x64/ 4800 series? Cos I'm still getting the access denied error. Tried from both my desktop at home and netbook at the office. I had got the same error the last time I'd tried to dl but didn't worry me as I had to send the 4870 for RMA. Btw, I have dled the drivers from Guru3D.

Just want to confirm if this is happening to others so I can troubleshoot my browser settings and such.

@Gunman below, yeah, works with IE7. Will have to troubleshoot both FFs on netbook and PC.

RivaTuner is not able to overclock the card after update to 181.71.

I guess this would be due to the Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) 1.1 :(

Re: Recently released ATI Catalyst & nVidia Forceware drivers

Re: Recently released ATI Catalyst & nVidia Forceware drivers

try catalyst 8.12 or 8.11 they are very stable...

also try and get your hands on 9.6 beta... might work.

but i have found 8.11 and 8.12 to be the most stable.

cheers

Re: Recently released ATI Catalyst & nVidia Forceware drivers

I need to get the Windows 7 64bit drivers of my HD 4850 ,I am thinking of downloading the 9.5 version .. but there are two options on AMD's site

1)Catalyst Software Suite (64 bit) English Only ver.9.5 -62 Mb file.

2)Windows 7 WHQL Driver -ver 8.612 -98.7 Mb file

I guess I need to download the first one , but still can someone tell me what is ther other 98 Mb file ?
