ATI Mobility vs. Regular

I was wondering what the difference between the ATI Mobility Radeon x1600 (found in Macbook Pros) and the ATI Radeon x1600 is. Are they about the same speed and the same power as each other? Or is the Mobility version less powerful than the other graphics card? If so, by how much?

W500 with ATI Mobility FireGL V5700 -can't change switchable graphics to "High Performance"

My W500 crashed on me this morning while playing a game, and I ran into a couple blue screens of death.After doing some troubleshooting, I determined that I had an issue with my video card, more specifically that my machine no longer recognizes my ATI Mobility FGL V5700, and only the low quality Intel chipset.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the ATI Catalyst drivers, but that did not work.
I also tried changing the switchable graphics back to "High Performance", but when I do, the screen goes completely black. If I put my computer to sleep and then wake it back up, the switchable graphics automatically go back to "Energy Saving", and my display works again, of course with the Intel graphics only.
If reinstalling the drivers doesn't work, and I can't change the graphics back to High Performance mode, does that mean my video card is shot? Any suggestions other than buy a new one or live with the Intel graphics?
I'd try to contact support but unfortunately my warranty just expired a month ago. Seems like everything breaks within a couple months of the warranty expiring. Grrr.

I'm having identical issues. After updating the driver through lenovo update utility, i can no longer get the graphic card driver working. I've tried several different drivers, none of them work, and I'm now stuck here with a useless computer while my deadlines come closer and closer. Are there seriously no offical reply to any of these threads?

[Solved] ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2300 Problem - fglrx not loading

I changed the currently unreliable GS 8600 nvidia card in my laptop to a compatible old ATI HD 2300 card from a similar model laptop but I can't get the Catalyst drivers to work with it. The open source driver xf86-video-ati works well with it for basic use, but is not so good for 3D. This card should work with an Amilo xi-2428 & has done for other people who have developed faulty nvidia cards.
I have the legacy driver installed from AUR (Catalyst-total-hd234k) and have enabled Vi0L0's [xorg112] server properly in pacman.conf & downgraded to Xorg-server 1.12. I also tried downgrading to Xorg-server 1.11 & reinstalling the drivers from AUR. Plus I have enabled and tried Vi0L0's [catalyst-hd234k] repo in place of the AUR package each time too. Made no difference. I've blacklisted radeon too.
When the laptop boots systemd-modules-load.service shows as failed.
$ sudo systemctl --failed
UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION

LOAD = Reflects whether the unit definition was properly loaded.
ACTIVE = The high-level unit activation state, i.e. generalization of SUB.
SUB = The low-level unit activation state, values depend on unit type.
1 loaded units listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive units, too.

I have no idea how to get fglrx to load & since it fails to load so early during boot I doubt the problem lies with my Xorg.conf. Likewise neither aticonfig or the ATI control center work.

amdcccle just give this message

Solved. The ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2300 was based on an earlier design & was not really one of the HD 2*** cards, even tho it was released as one (HD 2*** cards are R600 series while the HD 2300 is based on the R500 generation). So the offical drivers for it were relegated to legacy in 2009 with AMD's Catalyst 9.3 release & are no longer supported. Pretty crappy considering the HD 2300 was only on the market from 2007.
To use the official catalyst drivers would require xorg 1.5.3 and kernel 2.6.29..... with no support for newer distros.
Using open source drivers, cannot remember all the packages but have listed some below in case it helps anyone:-
xf86-video-ati
ati-dri
lib32-ati-dri
libtxc_dxtn
lib32-libtxc_dxtn
mesa
lib32-mesa
No xorg.conf needed for it using kms, but can make a config file to tweak if you like in the xorg.conf.d directory called 20-radeon.conf

Thanks for the response. It is not an obvious hardware issue. I would contact HP phone support to get the hardware addressed. You can utilize this website to learn how to contact HP appropriately, based on your region: Contact HP Worldwide
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. Thanks!

Broken ATI Mobility FireGL V5700 for W500 with Windows 7 - 64 bit

Hello all,
My setup is Lenovo Thinkpad W500 with Windows 7 - 64 bit
Display card is a ATI Mobility FireGL V5700
My graphics drivers used to be functional but now I have lost a lot of functionality (mostly graphics issues).
My two biggest issues are:
Many video games will crash/break because of my drivers apparently
Lost switchable graphics completely (the ability to change from FireGL V5700 to the low power card)
To clearly state: It is impossible to download these drivers from AMD, AMD themselves tell you to go to Lenovo
This is because Lenovo is responsible for the display card drivers in their own laptops.
I have not modified my computer. I believe that Lenovo's updates broke my laptop's functions.
How do I FIX this??
Nothing works from Lenovo's website. I've installed all their updates and the issues persist.
The Lenovo Solution Center tells me that everything is up to date.
Windows Update tells me everything is up to date.
I am NOT reformatting my computer, that is a rediculous thing to say when everyone is clearly having this issue.
What is the deal here? This laptop cost a very large amount of money and now it just broke itself? I don't believe it.

Ok thank you, this is likely a BIOS related issue now.
As you can see, Power Manager does not provide a switchable graphics option:
Device Manager only recognizes the high power graphics card (FireGL V5700) and not the low power card
Here is my BIOS settings for the display adapter:
Default Primary video Device: INTERNAL
Boot Display Device: THINKPAD LCD
Graphics Device: DISCRETE GRAPHICS
OS Detection for Switchable Graphics: DISABLED

Flash Player Crashes completely on ATI Mobility Radeon

hello,
I am the administrator of a couple of websites, that share the same AJAX/Flash AS3 basic structures. Normally, everything works fine, but on a few notebooks, every browser crashes at that moment, the flash components start to work.
the notebook:
DELL studio XPS 16
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3670
Windows Vista
http://www.dell.com/us/en/home/notebooks/laptop-studio-xps-16/pd.aspx?refid=laptop-studio- xps-16&cs=19&s=dhs
an example page:
http://www.thadasuanduanchai.com
i have no idea, why that happens, but i suggest, that a problem with flash-graphics card or flash-built-in camera may be responsable for the problem.
Has anybody an idea?
thank you very much,
C.Brosdau
Germany

If you read in graphics hardware support in some previous releases of Flash Player, flash video decoding support a.k.a. h.264 hardware video decoding is supported fully by ATi(or AMD) Radeon HD 4xxx and higher. The Radeon HD 3xxx and lower can't support h.264 video decoding for flash video decoding fully enough.

How to get "ATI Mobility FIREGL V5250 graphics adapter" on T60p to support plug-n-play monitor

My T60p 8742 with ATI Mobility FIREGL V5250 graphics only recognizes a "plug and play monitor" (a Sceptre X240BC-FHD tv) as a "default monitor" and can't get the monitor to display in its target resolution, 1920x1080, using VGA.
Setting it to 1920x1080 in Display Properties yields 1280x720 which extends beyond the montor's frame.
I want to use it as a second monitor along with my T60p's 1680x1050 screen. (OS is XPsp3)
Will updating the the video driver
> from "8.442.3-080103a1-057754C (Build ID: 79D172WW)"
> to "8.593.100.7-090929a"
(per http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-62841) get me plug-n-play support?
If not, any way to make it work?
Thanks very much.

The problem has been corrected(!!!!), so I'll mark this issue as solved. I now have an inoperative Catalyst Control Center (CCC), but I feel that is a comparatively minor issue that I can deal with later.
There were several learnings along the way to share with anyone who may be interested:
- Based on this experience, I would regard v8.442 FireGL video driver as less stable than Version 8.383.1.1.3 (for XP) in dual monitor mode, and would not recommend its use. If you do upgrade to it, be prepared to rollback.
- Old drivers can be found on www.opendrivers.com, but are also available via ftp from IBM's web site. I found this quite by accident. The v8.383.1.1.3 driver is at ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/79d165ww.exe.
- If, like me, you can't use rollback and have to install an older driver over a new one, be aware that the older version of CCC will fail to install. You must uninstall the newer version first. Otherwise, you'll be left with a version of CCC that (apparently) fails to run.
Thanks for your help, JanJL!

Gx623 ati mobility radeon 4670

I have problem with ati mobility radeon 4670, as i can understand full core speed is reached just in 3d mode (675MHz), normal mode 300 MHz.
I made a test with game "Blur" and it seems like something wrong with 3d control, because i got lag. maybe drivers ? or smth ?
Driver version: 8.741.0.0
i guess in 3d mode it should stay stable at 675MHz

The temperatures are a bit high if it is a new laptop. If it's not, there may be some dust inside building the heat up. You should try installing system control manager and using the turbo mode. It improves the performance quite a lot. Also, i would suggest to update the game to the latest version, it may improve the performance too. This issue was really significant with GTA4. With the original version, it lagged with low settings, and with the latest patch i can play on medium settings with no lag at all.

Need driver for display (ATI Mobility Radeon 7000 IGP)

Necessary driver for display ATI MOBILITY RADEON 7000 IGP under operating system Win 98, ME

Hi
Like Joao said try to find necessary drivers on Toshiba download site. All drivers are designed for each notebook model and if you use a driver downloaded from graphic card producer site there is no guarantee that it will work properly.
Good luck!

Ati Mobility M6 LY catalyst

I've got a laptop with an ATI Mobility M6 LY card in it. I installed the catalyst drivers and at first the screen would blank out before I could logon. I fixed this by disabling KMS with "radeon.modeset=0". I can logon now but startx puts my screen on a resolution it cant handle. Upon further inspection the xorg.conf is missing and running aticonfig I get the error that no supported adapters are detected.

M6 is not supported by catalyst, but it works just fine with xf86-video-ati. Just use a sane video boot option. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/In … small_area. < that can cause black screen too, and it's not intel spesific even tho the wiki seems to think so

T42p ATI Mobility Radeon Fire GL T2

When I try to install the ATI Mobility Radeon Fire GL T2 driver from ATI's website, why does it not work? It claims the hardware is not present.

Have you unpacked the driver from the correct directory after downloading it, it should be something like C>Drivers>Win>Video (or Monitor)?

Hope this works somehow been looking all day long now :(

Hi,
its your lucky day my friend.
Check this sites and download the drivers you need:
http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
http://www.omegadrivers.net/
The drivers are native Nvidia/ATI drivers but the *.inf files (the files where the hardware information and the settings for the cards are listed) were fitted for mobile systems. That means you can install them on your machine and by the way you will get the most actual drivers.

Temporarily solution for ATI Mobility HD 3470 driver

Hi guys,
I have found a temporarily solution for installing ATI Mobility HD 3470 driver, as shown following:
1) Disable Intel X4500 in BIOS;
2) Download a software named as driver genius and install it;
The software can be download at:
http://drivers.mydrivers.com/downloa...XP-2003-Vista/
or
http://count.mydrivers.com/download....us_v2008b5.zip
3) Run driver genius and select the item of driver update (the first button on software interface). In the software, this item is shown as "驱动更新" due to it is a Chinese version;
4) Select your display adapters from the hardware list shown soon;
5) Click the green button on the lower right corner to start updating and installing the driver automatically. The button is shown as "开始更新" in the software;
6) Reboot the laptop after the driver installing completed;
7) The ATI 3470 display adpater will be shown in device manager as "ATI mobility readon HD 3400 series" if the install is successful. After the operation the VISTA score can be update to be 4.7, while a score of 3.8 can be got for Intel X4500 display adapter.
When installing X4500 display adapter, the ATI 3470 adapter should be disabled in BIOS. Then you can update the driver for X4500 adapter following similar procedure for ATI driver installing.
Hope this can be helpful for you guys!! Wish you luck!!

i want to get latest driver for grafic card ati mobility radeon 5650

Can not install latest ATI mobility Radeon x1600 display driver for my Satellite A100

Hello,
my Satellite A100-704 PSAA9E is equipped with the ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 display graphic card, for which ATI provides a new driver, named Catalyst 8.3. My issue is that when I run the verification software I get a message telling me that driver is not suitable to be installed on my system.
Is that any information available about it? Can I still install the new Catalyst driver or it's better if I don't? Oh, the current driver I have running on my notebook is the one downloaded from the Toshiba site, 8.292 I believe.
Any information is appreciated. Thank you very much.

> Can I still install the new Catalyst driver or it's better if I don't?
I dont recommend the installation of any 3rd party graphic drivers. The fact is that such drivers are not tested and not certified and nobody knows how such driver would affect the notebooks hardware in worst case it could lead to the GPU overheating and damage
best regards

FAN Part # needed for T60P 8744-C9U with ATI Mobility FireGL V5250

I have a 15.4" T60P 8744-C9U with ATI Mobility FireGL V5250. The fan makes weird noise - the Laptop overheats and goes to sleep. I need to replace the fan (or the whole assembly).
1. What is the part number?
2. What else do I need (Thermal Paste / Screw driver etc?)
3. Are there any instructions / Videos etc?
4. Where can I buy the fan from?
Thanks for your help!!!
edit:
I did a little digging and the part number seems to be 41W6409. However one ebay item says that it is for integrated grahics. I am consufed. Please help me find the correct part number.

Welcome to the forum!
41W6409 is the correct FRU number.
Download the HMM from here:
http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product-and-parts/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-66958
You'll need some thermal paste (Arctic Silver 5 would be my preference) and a Phillips screwdriver.
Good luck.
Cheers,
George
