Compatibility between ati tv wonder 650 and ati radeon x850xt

cesm23

Ok, at the moment i have a powercolor ati radeon x850xt pci express, and it seems that only catalyst 9.3 is supported by this card...

Let's suppose i buy the powercolor ati tv wonder 650 pci, i woud like to know if there is any compatibility issues between these two cards, because the most recent drivers for the ati tv wonder 650 seem to be numered 9.4, i have no idea if this means any problems by only being able to use catalyst 9.3 with my graphics cards or not.. anyone have idea about this?

I also ask this because this graphics card also has aa capture device on it named ati t200 avstream analog capture and i don't know if it could conflict with the ati tv wonder 650 capture device.

Good question, I have a couple of setups that I might run into a similar situation. The drivers for the TV Wonder 650's have been IMO very stable for a while now so I don't think you need to use anything other than the 9.3 version...since they have capped Catalyst at 9.3 for older graphics cards. I realized too late to archive all the Catalyst & MMC's for AIW, but you can get the previous drivers for the TV Wonder 650 Combo for XP...

I selected the TV Wonder 650 Combo, I think the drivers are the same as the 650 PCI but not 100%....anyway grab a copy of all the old version then you are covered....do the same with the Catalyst versions that still remain. They go back through the Catalyst 8.0s.

EDIT EDIT EDIT NVM.... OMG i clicked on the link to get the PREVIOUS DRIVERS for my TV WONDER 650 COMBO and that takes you to a page with a list of previous drivers but hey are all for the 600 USB and the files sizes are dramatically different ....double the size so these aren't compatible ....WTH ATI yet another screw up!!

Just checked the VISTA drivers (Current and previous) all seem fine I'm downloading them all.


RE-EDIT: Ok for the XP previous drivers I used a little url comparison to the VISTA previous and got it to work: heres 9.3 aka 9-3; you can manually walk down the ladder to get them all 9-2, 9-1, 8-12 etc. by just changing the 9-3 in the url to which one(s) you need/want.
