U330 Updated ATI Drivers that support soft switch of GPU?

Is there a way to update the ATI video drivers and Catalyst Control Center that also support the GPU soft switch? I find it annoying that the last update is from August 2008, and no ATI drivers will work otherwise.

Hi,
I think that APS is not working properly. It is too acurate. When I just move my laptop in APS application I can see that my laptop is shaking for a 30 seconds and then my hard drive is stopped. I knew that everything couldn't be great. How can they (Lenovo) publish drivers without testing them?? Now there are two drivers, first the MOST important - switchable graphics - and now APS. I am just wondering why always Ideapads have to have problems with drivers?? We were waitng for a year without any support and now they give us faulty drivers. CONGARTUATIONS Lenovo!!!

K9A Plat: Updating ATI Drivers...to remove all or not to remove all...

okay, im a little confused over this whole ATI updating deal. My problem is that my VGA cards are ATI and ATI just came out with 8.6. Now, as far as chipset, that does not seem to have updated, which leads me to my question.
As per ATI instructions (http://support.ati.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=894&task=knowledge&questionID=20870 , when updating my existing ATI graphics package, I am supposed to uninstall all existing ATI software before running the installer package. Does this mean I have to remove all ATI shtuff (wont that remove my chipset package)...or is there a way to uninstall just the VGA card portion? please assist as I am a little confused and dont want to melt my machine.
Basically, what im asking is how do I remove the ATI VGA package so I can update it without messing up my ATI chipset installation?

Why do you want to update them? For your old VGA "VGA: Sapphire Radeon x1950 Pro" probably will bring you nothing more
Kinda like updating the OS...and I am already going to be calling MSI about my board (RAID issues) and one of the first things they always ask, even if it has nothing to do with the problem, is "Have you updated all your drivers?" This is from experience and telling them no on any of them basically gets you where you where before you made the call.
Update software!!! It's to help w/bugs in other parts of the app that existed in previous versions. Not to say that I am experiencing any of these, however, if ATI says that 8.6 is the latest for my particular VGA setup then should I not trust that I should follow ATI's advice and update to the latest version. If MSI had an update to the chipset package (that was more of a global) they would still put it out and reccomend you update.
Thats why I am going to update the VGA package. And what if it was an update that would 'bring me more' from my VGA. How do I follow ATI's instructions or does this mean I simply remove all ATI with their tool and re-install both VGA and chipset?
Additionally, I will check the driversweeper package, but I was looking for more of an explanation of how to follow ATI's instructions for updating VGA without screwing my chipset.
I am sure, however, that driversweeper will prove to be a great tool in my arsenal!!! thnx BOSSKILLER!!!

New updated ATI drivers for MBP

Hi!
I would like to know where I could find new drivers for the ATI chip? When I play Half Life 2 the system asks for updated drivers, but when I look around at www.ati.com/drivers I can´t find any drivers that fit my system....
They have a support site for ATI Mobility Radeon, but they don´t support Apple..
Does anyone know how to find the latest drivers?
MacBook Pro 15 2,16Ghz Windows XP

If you want a tiny bit better preformance, though more for the fact of better stability and the possibility to overclock it to the 'proper' clocks, i suggest the omega drivers. www.omegadrivers.net - simple, and easy to install. They are the latest catalysts also from when i last checked. They also wont give you a hassle if you overclock teh card, unlike teh apple ati ones
good luck!

280x issue's since latest windows update/ati drivers

Hello ,
Since a couple of days i have been having the weirdest issues with my system. It all started after i updated my windows and updated the ati drivers to 14.4. I would notice flickerings on both my monitors and out of nowhere when playing flash movies the screen goes berserk (always just the left monitor) :
http://members.ziggo.nl/dannyvanschie/280/20140427_174313.jpg - look what i mean :
if i would kill the program (aka firefox) then 50% of the time the screen would recover.
I tried 14.4 ,14.3 and now im on 14.1 rc 1 hoping this will work , however its also flickering again , or when i open a browser you can see the second monitor jump up and down for just 1 second.
I removed all drivers with DDU and made sure i did that in safe mode so that could not be the issue aswell. It dont think its the PSU since its on 12v constantly when under heavy load and its just 3 weeks old.
could it be an bios issue ? is there a new vga bios available for my card ? And has anybody ever seen this issue before , since i havent and i have seen a lot of broken weird things haha.
Rest of my specs in the sig are still the same.
cpu-z :
http://gpuz.techpowerup.com/14/04/27/bn4.png
PSU has changed to a : 750w Be quiet (modulair)
280x serial : 602-v277-28sb1311055531
rom version : 015.040.000.000.003454-113(c8365000-x77)
(for rom and picture of serial & cpu-z screenshots : http://members.ziggo.nl/dannyvanschie/280/)

update 2 : had 1x the same as the first picture , do notice that according to gpu-z my gpu core is running at 500mhz atm... It stays that way even when playing BF4 , but BF4 itself is as smooth as a baby.
i have manually set the clock to 1050 / 1500mhz in msi overburner and the gpu-z sensors dont change , but still the game runs fluid.

Are ATI drivers 'that' bad?

So i haven't upgraded my computer in a while and i'm stuck with an 8800GTS. But i'm gonna get an upgrade next week, and since i'm getting an AMD 1090T, i realize there aren't any good nForce mobo's these days. So i'm considering getting the Crosshair IV Formula, but if i wanna upgrade my gfx card it'd make more sense to get an ATI, for the crosshair (futureproofing). Since i wouldn't be able to run SLI, it'd be pretty stupid to stick with Nvidia.
I don't remember ATI drivers being awful when i had an x800xt, 4 years ago. They actually ran better in wine than the Nvidia card i upgraded to. So is the whole ATI drivers being bad thing blown out of proportion? And what's the ATI equivalent to twinview?

Updating ATI drivers HP Envy Phoenix H9-1350.

Hello,
I just purchased a Hp Envy Phoenix H9-1350. I have installed all of the windows update that it shows I need, and in the DXDIAG it shows the card as being a Radeon HD 7670. The driver shows no version like the usual ATI cards I'm used too and the driver date is listed as 9/21/2012.
When I try to update the driver via AMD's website, the driver never actually installs. Same with CCC. When I go to HP's support website to download drivers, I get CCC, but the driver does not seem to update. The time is still listed as 9/21/2012.
Because the drivers are so old, the performance I get in games is not what should be had with the system specs that the machine has. The operating system the computer is running is Windows 8. How do I go about updating the graphics drivers in this machine? I suppose I'd specifically like to install Catalyst 13.1, including the updated driver. 13.2 beta would be even better as that specifically improves Guild Wars 2 performance by quite a bit. Any assistance would be much appreciated.
This question was solved.

Hi:
I know what model PC you have, and what the specs are, and yes, you could remove and replace the video card.
What I am saying is that since I don't have your model PC or anything remotely related to it (I only buy/use HP business PC's), I am not in any position to confirm that installing a different video card (or a specific model video card) is guaranteed to work in your model.
What I am saying is...I see no reason why removing the current card and replacing it with one that works within the constraints of the power supply, would not work.
However, many times I read posts where folks install video cards in various PC's and for whatever reason, a certain model video card won't work in that PC and I wouldn't see any reason for that. But it happens.
You're going to have to roll the dice and see what happens, or you can start a new thread and see if anyone knows what specific video cards will work in your PC.
I agree that risking $100 is a lot of $$$ on a bet.
I have installed video cards in many PC's, and only once did one fail to work (even though it should have).

NVidia to release Drivers that support the Quadro K1000M and K2000M soon??

I have been checking to see if verde drivers support the K2000M in my W530, but today I saw that nVidia has added the K1000M and K2000M to the product listing on the drivers page. I'm hoping this means that they are gearing up to release drivers for these cards soon!!!!.
W530(2436-CTO): i7-3720QM, nVidia Quadro K2000M,16GB RAM, 500 GB hard drive, 128GB mSATA SSD, Ubuntu 14.04 Gnome, Centrino Ultimate-N 6300.
Yoga 3 Pro: Intel Core-M 5Y70, Intel HD 5300, 8GB RAM, 128GB eMMC, Windows 8.1, Broadcom Wireless 802.11ac.

I got those. They seem to run fine. I really want to upgrade to windows 8 so I can get rid of my VM.

Should I use the default video drivers or should I install ATI drivers?

I have a macbook pro with the ATI card in it. Should I download and use the ATI drivers that they provide on their website? Am I going to see benefits or should I stick with the drivers in the recent bootcamp update?
thanks

any reason why not using ATI drivers? When I play a game it says the driver it outdated (steam games for example), installing ATI drivers resolves this problem.
Not that I play a lot of games on my laptop, but I'm just thinking maybe I'll get better performance with ATI drivers with other 3D software (I use 3ds max a lot, and others).

Updating JDBC Drivers

Hi,
I´m in the middle of a SAP Portal installation on AIX with ORACLE and just followed the ORACLE Interim Patches installation but in one of them there is a note to follow to update the JDBC drivers outside the $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib directory but it does not says how to update them, however the note asks to download a classes12.jar and ojdbc14.jar files.
The question is how do I update the JDBC drivers in this step? is it just look for all classes12.jar and ojdbc14.jar files in my system and replace them with the new ones I just downloaded?(this .jar files are also in this directory .patch_storage/../../ but I guess those are for the rollback of the Interim patch so I wont touch those)
Thanx in Advanced!!
Gerardo J

Hi Geraldo,
well that would be a valid but brute force approach.
Since most applications that use a JDBC driver either need to get the exact driver location specified or look it up via their classpath you could also just update the drivers that you know you need to upgrade.
Anyhow there's nothing wrong in just replacing what you find

Radeon 9800 in a 7200 (with Sonnet Crescendo); 9.2x ATI drivers?

I know I know...why waste the time (and money).
The card works on 9.1 but wanted to see if anyone knew if:
OS9 Helper would be worth a try, or extracting the 9.2x ATI files using the TomeViewer? I have no real need of anything else in 9.2x
The Crescendo is obviously my obstacle...so I guess I could copy system folder and give it a go (w/o hope of the processor upgrade working).
Besides forgetting about this entirely, is there any this else I could try? I'm just looking to get optimal page draws/graphics performance.
Thanks in advance,
DHS

David,
I probably didn't make my point clearly. This was something that a lot of users experienced when the card first came out.
Here's what I should have posted:
1) Installing the ATI drivers from their bundled CD over existing OS9 drivers (my old ones were for the original Radeon Mac Edition) would cause severe problems including failure to boot.
2) Removing one OS extension (I forget which one) allowed the computer to run in 9, but with no video acceleration.
3) Trashing all ATI extensions, then installing from the CD, and OS9 worked, although I find the 9200 less stable in 9 than in X.
I hope newer downloadable driver packages have improved the situation.
OSX discovery: Although the 3D acceleration was there in X, the drivers (either CD or latest downloads) whacked my 2D performance. The Dock, scrolling, moving windows, all went jerky. A benchmark test showed that 2D performance had dropped over 25 percent. I reinstalled Jag, did not install the 9200 drivers and everything was fine with the ATI drivers that Jag installed. Same with Panther. I did not add any extra ATI drivers to what Panther already had. Works fine, even with a VRAM-hungry flight sim.
