27in iMac (late 2009) ATI 4850 drivers problem in Windows 7

This iMac is less than a month old. Windows 7 was working fine until a couple of days ago. While at the Windows 7 desktop the screen pixlated and froze. A tip bubble appeared in the notification bar that said the ATI driver quit but was recovered. The screen went black then restored itself. A moment later the whole thing occurred again. Is this a known issue? Is there a fix? Thanks for any help.

BANDING AND DRIVER CRASHING SOLVED:
I bought the following iMac on April 18, 2010 to run Windows 7 and Autodesk REVIT 2011.
27" iMac (Late 2009)
Intel Core i7, quad-core, 2.8GHz
8GB (4x2GB) memory
1TB Hard Drive
ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB Display Adapter
Apple Magic Mouse
Apple Wireless Keyboard
Apple BootCamp with Windows 7 Ultimate
Installed OSX, downloaded and installed all updates.
Installed BootCamp 3.1
Installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and had the problem of the black screen during install. This was solved with the fix from apple support (copy latest drivers to a flash drive and continue to install windows). This resulted in apple windows driver 8.681.0.0 and the 16 bit color with banding. Rolled back the driver to 8.661.0.0. The banding issue was solved, but then had intermittent crashing (reset of the driver) in Chrome and REVIT 2011. This driver caused yellow "dots", then lockup and generally would reset. Very disruptive to REVIT.
SOLUTION:
Went to ATI website and downloaded Catalyst 10.4, then manually installed ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4850 display driver version 8.723.0.0. This display driver has 32 bit color, does NOT exhibit the color banding and has not had screen flicker, driver resets, or crashing in any programs run so far. I use this computer only for Autodesk REVIT 2011. The ATI HD 4850 is not officially supported by Autodesk, but I am able to run REVIT 2011 with hardware acceleration and anti-aliasing with no problems. So far that has been only for one day, but was not able to go more than a few minutes with the previous drivers.
I have not run any speed benchmarks yet, but compared to my Windows 32 bit XP machine, the performance is much improved.

  • Photoshop CS6 - iMac Late 2009 - ATI 4670 - Liquify on screen brush adjustements

    Hi,
    I reinstall an iMac computer with OSX Mavericks (10.9.2). Old installation worked with Snow Leopard (10.6.8)
    Now all works ok but when I start Liquify plugin, I can't use on screen brush adjustements to change size and hardness. But this keys works ok in Photoshop.
    I use Photoshop CS6 with all updates. My iMac use ATI Radeon HD 4600 graphics card. What can I do to fix this problem? I try to disable graphics acceleration, but it doesn't fix it. Maybe reinstall Snow Leopard?
    Regards,
    Mike

    Yes, it works. I also have a Mac Mini...  Installing the same OSX version, same Photoshop and Wacom drivers, all works ok. Photoshop was installed using 13.0 dmg file. Then updated to 13.0.6 using Photoshop_CS6_13_0_6_upd.dmg file
    Wacom drivers: WacomTablet_6.3.7-3.dmg
    OSX installed using USB bootable with 10.9.1 version. Then updated to 10.9.2.

  • IMac 27" (2009) ATI 4850 driver in Bootcamp 3.1 outdated?

    Hello,
    I just updated my Windows 7 64 bit installation on my iMac 27" i7.
    I was not happy to see though that the ATI drivers are old (9.1). I used modified 9.12 drivers before which worked much better, just didn't show 32bit colors, instead only 16bit. With Catalyst 9.1 e.g. the game "Dirt 2" is really slow in the menus and I just got that the whole graphic card froze twice and the screen had green dots all over the screen until Windows reset the display driver.
    Apple please quickly give us the up to date drivers or anyone knows how to modify these drivers to become the latest version?

    I tried both downloads and neither ended up changing the driver. I selected custom install and the driver that it said it was going to install was the one Apple provided, not the 9.12 one, even though that's what I downloaded. Dumb. I did the driver rollback and though it helped the banding, it's still there a little bit. I'm guessing I shouldn't see anything at all.
    Edit: When I noticed the banding a little bit even after the rollback, I was looking at the default Win7 background. After switching to some of the other backgrounds, I'm not really noticing anything anymore. Maybe that default image has some in the image itself? But yea, it was definately terrible regardless with the 3.1 drivers

  • IMac Late 2009 i7-2.8Ghz Poor Performance

    My iMac Late 2009 seems to run very slowly after a clean install of OSX Mavericks. I am not sure that happened after the clean install. But now i have noticed it.
    I am using mainly photoshop. Everything is sluggish. Moving or resizing layers.
    Generally it runs very slow with everything.
    The surprising fact is after i ran GeekBench.
    The average score for 32-bit test is about 2000 for single-core and 7000 in multi-core
    My results are: 700 for single-core and 3000 in multi-core.
    Few users seem to have about the same results as me..
    My specs are:
    Late 2009 iMac
    intel i7 2.8Ghz
    12GB of Ram
    ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB
    Kingston SSDNow V300 120GB with trim enabled (i upgraded my ssd after my old corsair 90GB ssd broke!!!)
    OSX Mavericks 10.9.3
    You can see all the iMac Late 2009 i7 2.8Ghz results here.
    http://goo.gl/yuoQvm
    Do you have any suggestions?
    it drive me crazy!!
    I am considering a clean install but i want to wait for the Yosemite release.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    Paste into the window of another application.
    Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
    11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start Time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • IMac late 2009 crashing with Maverick

    I have a problem with my iMac (late 2009) that I cannot solve. It has become very slow, and crashes regularly after some time. Impossible to repair it, neither from the disk recovery partition, nor an external HD boot and using Disk Utility. So everytime I have to download Maverick again and install it to be able to work. I have noticed that after the fresh installation, and and a few days of working, Disk Utility shows problems with Disk permissions that need to be repaired. This occurs systematically.
    To complete the story, the iMac was working fine when I bought it, but was returned to Apple for the HD substitution (Apple replacement programme). After this, and/or after installing Maverick (but I am not sure the 2 things are related), the problem started.
    I have also tried PRAM resetting, no effect. Any suggestion?

    For 2009 iMac owners on Mavericks, I recommend this procedure. Saved me a lot of frustration after almost a month of constant crashes and getting no work done.
    I downloaded a temperature monitor to see what was happening. Before the fix, the temperature on the "north bridge heat sink” would just go up and up without fail. Particularly when using flash or a video related application. It would just keep rising until until the graphics card just shuts down.
    It’s a 3 year old bug related to 10.6.3 and GPU drivers (ATI/AMD). Here’s the link to the guy who figured it out and should be testing for apple. You have to use terminal to solve the issue. He explains everything in detail.
    http://www.pauloamgomes.net/blog/fix-weird-os-x-freeze-imacs-late-2009
    After the fix, the temperature at the graphics card stays level. I’ve also decided to use a fan control app for the moment so temperatures stay around 50 and the iMac runs like it should. Even in my hot room in the summer.
    Been crashless since doing the procedure. Try it out. better than lugging a 27" iMac around town.

  • IMac late 2009 gives beach ball. All test return normal.

    I have an iMac late 2009 model 27 inch. update to Mavericks (10.9.1)
    Returning from holiday, I found my iMac dead slow, with spinng beach balls on every click. Until now I have done ....
    Create new user account, logged in as this new user.
    reset PRAM / NVRAM
    boot up in safe mode
    boot up in recovery mode, perform disk test. (all normal)
    I managed to copy the most important directories to an external storage. Got more and more read/write errors.
    iMac had become unusable slow.
    Made bootable USB stick, used this to boot and did a complete HD erase.
    Clean installed Maverick.
    Problem still persist.
    Performed AHT (Apple Hardware Test) in extented mode. No error founds.
    Performed Black Magic Disktest, around 110 MB/s seems normal speed.
    After reboot, the first application start up fast (which gives me hope) but starting the second app, takes several minutes with this spinning beach ball.
    Anyone here having simular problems or otherwise can point me to a solution?

    Thanks for you advise. I did a clean install, so without any third party software like Trusteer Rapport.
    On you advice I ran EtreCheck. This is the result:

  • IMac late 2009 - beach ball of death

    My iMac is hanging a ridiculous amount - Every 30 seconds or so, no matter how few applications are running, I get the beach ball of death. It'll typically stall for a minute or more. Ugh.
    I upgraded the RAM to see if that would fix the problem, and it didn't (the computer still hangs when available RAM is in excess of 10GB). I've run the Apple Hardware Test, and there were no problems reported. I've run virus scans, and there were no problems reported. I've upgraded the machine to OSX Lion, and have all of my software updated to current versions.
    Please let me know if you have any ideas for a solution!

    Yes... took it back to Mac Store who sent it to their depot who did a deeper scan and it was a failing harddrive.  Thank goodness for Time Machine and having backups... I am not as stressed as I would have been.  However, they reinstalled it with Snow Leopard instead of my purchased Mountain Lion.  When I brought it home I imported from Time Machine.  But another issue reared its head and fought with its password issues (seriously, hours of work there) only to find that I could not upgrade from SL to ML on my disc.  I did a check for software update from the Apple Icon (no Apple Store in SL) and it downloaded 1.6 GB of 5 updates (what appears to be the Java and others that are making the rounds currently).  When this installed I was unable to log in at all, unable to get past the login screen, with some heavy duty serious lag and blue screens.  So I am BACK at the Mac Store and having them do a complete wipe (again) and installation of Mountail Lion this time.  In theory I should be able to take my machine with a new harddrive, Mountain Lion installed, back home and import form Time Machine. 
    Preach it from the rooftops and mountains... buy an external hard drive and install Time Machine.  Seriously!  Do it now!  I am very happy that I finally, after a year, got around to doing this in time.

  • Constant Disconnection from Airport Extreme Networked iMac (late 2009)

    I keep trying to copy fairly large files (2-7GB) over my Aiport Extreme (latest—5th generation) network from a early 2011 Macbook Pro to a 27" iMac (late 2009), and I keep getting disconnected from the iMac while the file is copying. I've tried repairing permissions on every computer in the house and restarting them, but I'm still having issues. I have no issues copying files to another late 2011 Macbook Pro in the house, so it seems to be happening only when I copy them to the iMac. The iMac is running Snow Leopard and the Macbook Pros are running Lion, so could that have something to do with it?
    Additionally, I had been trying a wireless extended network with another previous generation Airport Extreme, but I found the connection wasn't much stronger with the extension, so I've just been leaving the second Airport Extreme unplugged. I've had that unplugged for months and haven't had any issues, so I don't think that's the problem.
    I'm hoping this isn't a sign of something being wrong with the Aiport card in the iMac. Anyone have any ideas?

    Bump?

  • I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode.  If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues.  I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion.

    I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode.  If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues.
    I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion. I now want to fix the underlying problem.
    I'm not running any weird background processes and in my energy saver settings I've tagged "put the hard disk to sleep when possible:, "allow power button to put computer to sleep" and "automatically reduce brigthness". All pretty standard.
    Is there anyone who can give me some pointers ?

    Today I solved the same problem for my iMac running Snow Leopard. See https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3008791#15947706. The method may help you, too.
    For me it was the DynDNS Updater preventing my iMac from automatically entering sleep mode.
    To my knowledge the cause of this sleep problem can only be a peripheral device or a process. So I suggest to first unplug all peripherals and test whether that's the cause. If not, I suggest to terminate one process after another and to test automatic entering of sleep mode after each. Start with user processes; continue with system process if necessary.
    At least that's the way I found the offending process. Fortunately, I was able to change the configuration of that process to allow again automatic entering of sleep mode.
    Good luck!

  • How to install windows 7 on Imac late 2009 using Vmware/Vbox

    Hey guys. Here's the thing. I've installed Windows 8 on my imac late 2009 but then i realized that there's no bootcamp drivers for it (check image).
    everything works fine except for the video drivers that crash everytime when i install any driver (bootcamp or manually).
    So I've searched on many forums n i found a guy that could do that by using Vmware/Virtualbox by accessing the full disk n installing it from there.
    Here's what we wrote -> (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1526883)
    "Thanks for the suggestions, but installing from usb wasn't working, and refit didn't recognise the external dvd drive too (it was in the list, but when i tried to load it i got an error).
    But i found a solution, not usual procedure but still good and easy to do.
    I installed virtualbox, created a virtual machine with the full disk access (you'll have to unmount all the partitions first and run virtualbox as root), started installing windows, when the copy of the files ended and the vm was rebooting i simply closed it and rebooted my imac and finished the installation directly on the imac, everything went well...
    Thanks again for the help"
    Important notes :
    - My superdrive is broken
    - I can't boot efi windows 7 (cause it needs efi 2.0)
    So i might ask u 2 things..
    1- Is there a way that i can install all those drivers on windows 8.
    2- Can u describe how he did that with Vmware/Virtualbox?

    I can't. Just like i said. My superdrive is broken so the only way is to boot from usb but my imac's efi firmware is 1.0 and to boot a windows 7 efi you must have at least efi firmware 2.0. I managed to install windows 8 cause it needed efi firmware 1.0 that's why.

    I followed your instructions and installed Developer Suite 10G on Windows Vista Home Premium edition. I have Oracle 11G DB running on the same machine.
    Two points, Steve:
    1. When I tried to set the maximum virtual memory to 6110 an error message displayed from Windows and told me that I can't set the maximum virtual memory to more than 4096. I set it to 4090 and it worked and I got nothing wrong during the installation process.
    2. After installing JInitiator and disabling Java on Firefox I called the http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet page and everything seemed to be OK because the Oracle Forms Services logo appeared and then a successful installation message appeared , but as I clicked (ok) to continue a gray screen appeared inside the browser (like the one displayed when you try to run a Java applet inside a browser) and then I wait to death till something appears but sadly nothing. I just get a blank gray screen inside my Firefox browser.
    Do you have any idea what to do to solve the problem?
    Regards

  • Mountain Lion for iMac Late 2009

    Is Airplay the only feature that wont work on the older Macs? I don't use Airplay with My iMac (Late 2009) so it's no big deal, its all I hear people complaining about except that it slows down their computers. Is this an older version issue too (speed)?
    I like all of the other features, if Airplay is the only thing that won't work then I'm going to download but if there are other issues with older version computers I would like to know. Thanks

    Primarily yes. Mt. Lion is like ANY OS X upgrade. Prior to upgrading your system it should be operating perfectly, if it isn't address your problems first or your upgrade could be a disaster. Check to see your apps and peripherals are compatible and then if everything is OK you can proceed. Before beginning your download BACKUP!!!! It's wise to have a minimum of 1 backup but when it comes to backup redundancy is a very good thing.

  • IMac late 2009 with 6GB RAM, slow with Yosemite

    Have you ever used that small pc computers with slow processors, called netbooks? This is what my super fast iMac late 2009 (6GB RAM) with Mavericks turned into, after upgrading it to Yosemite OS X.
    I mean, processor itself doesn't look to busy, but user experience is click and wait (when nothing happens, I almost want to click again but then action happens). Opening window animation is like slide show - it is not smooth as it was before, with Mavericks.
    Anybody with iMac late 2009 can confirm this or is it my setup only?
    I have the basic late 2009 model, except I upgraded it to 6GB RAM soon after I purchased it.
    This is how my About this Mac looks like:
    And this is how my hard disks look like:
    Nothing specially busy here, just slow Yosemite. When I open Safari, Mail, iPhoto and iTunes, it is not good to open any other app, because I might wait much more. I caught my self using iPad while opening fifth app on iMac (just to get an idea, how very slow it feels).

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen. Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take one of the actions that you're having trouble with. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
