Unable to install new display drivers

When I'm in Windows 7, I want to update my display drivers because the ones I have are very old. However, when I try to install them using the Catalyst-program from ATI, they say everything installed, but nothing is there. I've checked the install catalogue, but it's empty. I've checked on Device Manager on my display drivers, and it's still the old one.
The one I have installed is version 8.661.0.0, dated 2009-09-23. The newest one is like 10.2.
This is seemingly affecting the performance on my computer because I can't use the new drivers.
I've tried uninstalling the old ones and installing the new, didn't work. Tried using Driver Sweeper, didn't work. I don't know what to do, or if it's even possible to upgrade the drivers.
I have ATI Radeon HD 4850.
null

I have installed the 10.3 on my 27" imac. i was able to play games on it with no problems.. xD
installing it was pretty easy,
1) install Catalyst 10.3 and follow the steps until you reached the finish page
2) go to your Device Manager and look for Display Adapter
3) click on it, and a sub tab should appear, mine was ATI radeon HD 4670
4) right click and click update driver
5) there should be 2 options which is search online and find on your disk...
6) choose the second option
7) that should bring you to the next page which you should click on the 'I have the file' option
8) this should you bring you to a page with existing drivers
9) click on have disk
10) and search for the ATI file which you download.
11) follow along the path, ATI>10_3xxxxxx>*something inbetween* > package>display>CL_xxx file ( i am currently not on the windows and just rambling based on memory, so pardon me.. =P)
11) after selecting OK it should display a long list of drivers inwhich you just find yours
12) install! the com should prompt you about how unsafe it is, but just click OK
13) after the driver is install, it should be okay to try any games without any error.
I hope this help you, but i do have one problem... once i have installed the driver, it works fine, but when i restart my computer, it will have a BSOD and i would have to restart and reinstall the driver... i'm pretty sure something is wrong with it... so if anyone has the same problem and have found a solution, please do tell me!... xD

    Thanks for your prompt reply. I'm not sure how to connect to the monitor as the only ports available on this model mac are Thunderbolt. The mini display to display cable supplied doesn't seem to work out of the TB port. Do I need to use a Thunderbolt cable + an adaptor?

  • Where can I find new display drivers for Satellite P100

    Hello,
    i need new display drivers for my Notebook (Satellite P100), but it's only Version 84.0 to download.
    I need version 162.0 or higher.
    On Nvidia Web-Site is the new 167.0 beta, but does it work with my system?

    The Toshiba graphic drivers on the Toshiba European driver page are not the same like the original graphic driver from the graphic card manufacturers.
    Therefore you cannot compare the driver version numbers!
    Generally the graphic driver which appears on the Toshiba page is the newest Toshiba driver.
    Best regards

    Does anyone know how to solve this tiresome problem, please!?? The update is downloaded upto 723.5MB, and is required upto 723,6MB, then the error message pops out! Tnx.

    I have a quick wifi connection (Mac shows it as about 35 megabits) but I couldn't get the 5.0.1 OTA to work, I had to do it via cable to my computer's iTunes - and as I was already on iOS 5 it was only a small download, basically the same size as the OTA size.
    As the original poster is talking about a 730 meg download then I assume that they are still on iOS 4.3.5 or below and can therefore only download via their computer's iTunes - you need to be on iOS 5+ before you get the OTA option.

  • Unable to install new gnome icons.

    For some reason I'm unable to install new icon themes in gnome. I download the tar file and extract it to the .icons folder, but when I go to the "customize theme" settings it doesn't have the new icons... This is the same way that I've installed new icons with every other distro, but for some reason it's not working here... Have I missed something?

    Maybe check out AUR for some icon themes?
    Umm .. Creating PKGBUILD could fix a *broken* theme ?
    No, but if you use PKGBUILD you wouldn't end up with a broken package.
    @OP
    Can you please post a link to the icon theme you are trying to use?

    You might want to rather just drag 'n' drop the tarball into the Customize Theme window and let it do all the work for you.
    Some lazy people do ignore the packaging rules and provide broken icon packages, so just extracting the contents to .icons might not be enough. The real icons folder might be a sub-folder in the tar archive's root or something like that, and you need to cp that folder into .icons.
    I've tried the drag 'n drop method as well, but when I drag my tarball in to the customize theme window, it doesn't stick, it just goes right back into the downloads folder.

  • Unable to install new programs

    I am unable to install new programs to my Mac book. The Mac's personal specifications is as follows:

    Startup disc: Macintosh HD
    Memory: 1G 667 MHz DDRZ
    When every I am trying in install or update my programs it gives me the following message and nothing I do can change it:

    You cannot install Norton Antivirus on this volume. This software must be installed on a volume containing Mac OS X version 10.4.10 or later.
    HOW CAN I RESOLVE THIS. Even if I go onto the internet to update my software it does not allow me to.
    Your urgent assistance is desperately needed. HELP :o)

    Verify the version of Norton Anti-virus you have is 10.5.4 compatible.
    Make sure your hard drive is less than 85% full (an arbitrary number which appears to create problems for Mac OS X)*:

    Note running Norton Anti-virus on the Mac is normally something that's only needed to prevent you from becoming Typhoid Mary, more than prevent you from getting a Mac OS X virus, as there are none in the wild. There are some proof of concept trojan horses, but that's about it.

    unable to install new iTunes as it states it has an invalid signature. what is this.

    That one suggests the installer has gotten damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • Re: When will Toshiba release new display drivers?

    Hello,
    does anybody have any clue whatsoever if Toshiba is going to release new display drivers for HD2600 Mobility Radeon? It's been 10 months since last release eventhough ATI released their new drivers 9.4 at the beginning of april (1 month ago).
    Thank you in advance,

    Hello,
    when i wrote 100% sure it doesn't work - i tried it myself with offical drivers and it did not work. Modded drivers worked though.
    I belive that undervolting your laptop CPU is a must, because it lowers the temperature and relieves other laptop components.
    That is if you succesfully undervolt it. There is no performance degradation, only the current that runs through your CPU is lowered and that lowers your CPU temperature (simple physics, P=U*I + first law of thermodynamics) and consequently the temperature of your system, thus making components last longer.
    As for overclocking my graphics card - it is never good to overclock, but if you can provide good heat flow and overclock in reasonable boundaries, it is a safe solution. I get from 3000 3DMarks06 stock (500/400) to 4100 (756/495) and the temperature of GPU never rises above 60°C (the limit for GPU's is much higher than fot the CPU's).
