ATI 9.12 Install--did not install
Radeon 3870 Windows 7 Professional 4 quad 8G ram - clean install.
Microsoft installed 9.11 at time of install and operating device manager driver version displays 8.6.32.1.200 Downloaded just the 9.12 drivers to install Dec.17. The install process appeared to be processing from what was viewed on the monitor. No change in the operating device manager driver version. It is still 8.6 There isn't a new date in any of the ATI driver files as compared to the original (by chance, I have a copy because there was a necessity for the technician to reinstall Win7 which made an old copy of the original windows 7 install which had ATI 9.11) Previous installs of ATI drivers have not had the original driver removed before installing the updated version so I did not manually remove the 9.11 on this 9.12 install occassion. I'm not sure what step to do at this point. a)Delete the expanded files located in C:\Ati for the recent download b)Download again and include the Catalyst portion or Download again just the drivers to try again. c) Or go through the driver update routine using the operating system drivers dialog box which I assume will be pointed at the expanded files at the root of C: There is an atikmag error repeatedly displaying in the event manager with ID 52236 CPLIB and another 'display is not active' ID 43029 DAL error when using the current 9.11 drivers. I turned off SLEEP but that hasn't stopped the event error. Perhaps updating the drivers has nothing to do with correcting this atikmag error listing? Rose |

Rose Download Driver Sweeper from the below url and have it remove all ATI crap then reboot PC and then install 9.12 driver with CCC from ATI. http://downloads.guru3d.com/Guru3D--...%29_d1655.html I recommend you set Microsoft updates to ask you what to install and not allow it to just install automatically because the drivers from ATI are not the same as the ones Microsoft provide and as you found out can mess up your system. I do updates manually because I know the major updates are released the second Tuesday of every month and I like to see just exactly what is being installed and do not install all optional updates. |

Your recommend is the routine I normally follow ( not installing automatically) but the computer shop had to redo their original installation of my machine and in that process the ATI drivers were included with the update. I agree with your observation of the MS extras. I had the 9.11 drivers installed before the machine went back to the shop and all systems were operating smoothly. Thanks for the input. Rose |

Rose OK, let me know if the driver sweeper method and installation of 9.12 w/CCC fixed your issue or not. |

Rose OK, let me know if the driver sweeper method and installation of 9.12 w/CCC fixed your issue or not. The issues of my own toolbar(folder with shortcuts) now does not display white for a moment before displaying the list of shortcuts in the popup toolbar. Adobe Lightroom Raw processor develop screen does not flicker, nor does a black box suddenly appear where information text is located overlaying the image. In particular, the viewing screen doesn't shiver when applying adjustments. Those were the little things I noticed previously. The device manager is now listing the current driver. The uninstall,cleanup and reinstall went along smoothly but I did keep notes from the websites alongside to follow grin This time the complete install required a restart which didn't happen with just the driver only install. The install report log had the word SUCCESS and I don't think that was there for the previous attempt. I don't use the CCC panel but if this is what it takes to have a good install that CCC can be there. At the ATI games forum there are several people who have had difficulty gettting this 9.12 installed. Thank you for the kick-start assistance grin Rose |

Thank you for the kick-start assistance grin Rose No problem. I haven't installed 9.12 yet and am still on 9.11. I will install later and see if I get any issues but I have never in the past when I run the ATI uninstall tool first. Not driver sweeper but in the add/remove programs feature in control panel there is a tool listed to uninstall all ATI stuff and is from ATI, so long as that is run first and you reboot the PC then the install will go fine. But for you there was no such uninstaller because you never installed CCC so the driver sweeper instead was needed. |
