I'm currently having some nasty problems with my Radeon card and I hope someone might be able to help me! I already tried searching the forum, but nothing so far has helped.
It started when I tried to update my old driver (version 4.13.01.9031) with the latest Catalyst driver. I followed the instructions given on the ATI site and uninstalled the old driver first. When I booted up again and tried to install the new driver it refused to install. It unpacked all the files, but when it came to actually installing the driver I got an error message and it stopped. I have tried this several times, and gotten several different error messages. I tried downloading the driver again in case the file was corrupt, but still no joy.
I tried removing the card from the device manager and rebooting. Upon starting up, the card is sometimes recognised as a Radeon DDR (before it was always listed as Radeon 7200 though) and sometimes as a standard vga card. If it's recognised as a Radeon card, I can go through the installation wizard but still am unable to install a driver. Basically it gets to the point of copying the files but opens a dialog box for each file saying it cannot be found (despite pointing it in the right direction). This also happens if I try to use the original CD to install a driver as well. As I write this the card is listed under device manager as a Radeon DDR with a yellow exclamation mark. The details say that a driver is not installed.
I have also tried installing/uninstalling under windows safe mode, but still no luck.
If anyone can offer help with this I'd greatly appreciate it (this is driving me up the wall)! Oh, forgot to mention that I'm running Windows ME.
Cheers.
