HD3850 AGP

Should CCC 9.8 work with the HD3850 AGP card.

I have 9.6 running but when I tried upgrading it said I have no hardware
capable of using this software.

You might need the AGP patch...

You need to use this:

Agreed, hotfix drivers only.

I'm sticking with 9.3 though; much better all-round performance with
this version on my (X2 4800+) system when compared to later 9.x releases.

unfortunately it will not cure my monitors lack of ability in setting 1680 x
1050 so I will wait until Samsung sort out the problem...

Let me guess....When you have this setting it scrolls about your
desktop?

when I have 1680x1050 set I have to scroll the screen left and right to see
all the screen. Samsung recently replaced the panel under warranty and the
replacement, though 1 month newer than the old, is lacking the latest
firmware. Samsung are due to replace it or give me a brand new one.

I have a SyncMaster 226BW 22" and suffered from the same problem.
Installing drivers didn't help. It seems the monitor doesn't send the
EDID needed. I spent days trying to sort it and then managed to using
ATI's CCC. There is a setting with loads of "supported" resolutions*
or something. I seem to remember it was greyed out at first so I had
to manually pick my resolution and it forced my monitor to take it.

I don't have CCC installed anymore so I can't point you in the right
place but I'm very sure you have the same problem I had.

*and I don't mean on the usual select screen resolution screen.

Are you using DVI or VGA ports on the monitor. You need to use the native
resolution that your monitor is designed for. What model is it? My Acer 24"
demands 1920-1200

I don't think that's his problem....If he used a non-native res it'll
still display without scrolling left and right but it'll look blurry
and awful...

CCC stops at 1600 x 1200 which it reads from the EDID as you say. Loading
the Samsung software that came with the monitor 1680 x 1050 is available in
Windoz display properties. Once 1680 x 1050 is set here it then appears in
CCC. Using Force makes absolutely no difference. There are ways of patching
the EDID by overwriting the EPROM's but that would invalidate my warranty.
Samsung have it all in hand and CS are due back to me next week. Its the 4th
monitor under my 3 year warranty and the engineer stated he thought they
would provide me a new one instead of refurbished. This is because they
don't know which of the referbs have the correct EDID firmware.
