DH Mobility Modder V3 released ! (64 bit support)

pbony · Oct 16, 2005, 08:37 AM

Hello PlayerWon and Patje,

I've got the same problem using an ASUS W2VC laptop (ATI X700 Mobility - PCI Express) running Windows XP Pro SP2.

I've just installed the ATI Catalyst 5.10 including CCC with DHMod 3 and the resolution is okay. But I don't have any icon to access the ATI CCC.

I'm gona check if the Microsoft .NET Framework is installed by default with SP2 (component required for ATI CCC).
FYI, I need to access to the CCC setings to setup the Overlay function.

Regards

pbony · Oct 16, 2005, 09:18 AM

FYI, Same problem after re-installing in the following order:

Ms .NET Framework 1.1
Ms .NET SP1
ATI Catalyst 5.10 with CCC

Details: at the O.S startup, the ATI icon doesn't appear in the launch bar...

Regards.

pbony · Oct 17, 2005, 08:39 AM

OK,

This is what you have to do.
uninstall any ATI Driver
install Microsoft .Net Framework v1.1 (component required for ATI CCC)
Do not install .NET FrameWork v2.0 beta !!!
install Microsoft .Net Framework SP 1
install ATI Catalyst driver using DHModTool v.3

To install ATI CCC launch SETUP.EXE from:
C:\ATI\SUPPORT\5-10_xp-2k_dd_ccc_wdm_enu_27256\ACE

Regards

hey i tried to install the 5.10 driver and i get a message stating that i need this file atioglx1.dll what whould i do? i have a sager 9860 with a ATI x800

patje · Oct 20, 2005, 01:11 PM

Polok120, just to be sure, did u use the latest modtool version? 3.0 ?

polok120 · Oct 21, 2005, 10:00 AM

yah i did and during setup it kept wanting to replace a bunch of other files that it said were newer

patje · Oct 21, 2005, 10:12 AM

can you tell me what catalyst file u used? u did use the desktop drivers, not the mobility drivers right?

Also, you can try ATI's mobile drivers without the use of the modtool:

polok120 · Oct 21, 2005, 12:06 PM

yah i used the desktop drivers 5.10

No-Fear · Oct 23, 2005, 01:02 PM

Hi Patje,

i've got a problem using the new catalyst with my laptop.
Installing the driver works fine with you're mod-tool and they work aswell, but : i can't get my standard resulution from 1280x800. did you or anyone else find a way to fix this problem till now ?
i tryed to fix it like someone found out for an older catalyst but the file i had to mod is not in the new driver.

thx nic

patje · Oct 24, 2005, 11:56 AM

No-Fear, try using this version:
http://users.skynet.be/FCB/files/DHmodtool3.1.exe if that don't work, let me know what card you have ok?

Simonof17 · Oct 25, 2005, 02:04 AM

I have the ati radeon 9200 card and have installed the latest omega drivers. However, when I run the mobility modder and attempt to install the ati catalyst it still gives me the message about INF not found. I am having trouble watching DVD's because they stutter and I am wondering whether it is anything to do with this. I also have recently installed GTA San Andreas and it will not work. I get an error message everytime the game starts and it has to shut down. I don't understand why the mobility modder wont let me install the ati catalyst so at least I can check to see if that will solve any of my issues. Please help!

Simon

patje · Oct 25, 2005, 09:14 AM

Simonof17,

download the version in the previous post. that has support for the 9200

Simonof17 · Oct 25, 2005, 01:48 PM

I just tried that and i still get the INF error message. It tells me that setup was unable to complete the installation and also says 'Try to setup your display adapter with a standard VGA driver before running setup'. What does that mean? I am supposed to be installing the 5.10 catalyst set from ATI aren't I?

patje · Oct 25, 2005, 03:16 PM

yes the desktop 5.10 catalyst suite

to make sure:

https://support.ati.com/ics/support/...questionID=640

Simonof17 · Oct 26, 2005, 06:48 PM

Still wont install them. I tried uninstalling all ATI drivers and using driver cleaner and then installing the omega drivers again, but I am still having trouble with my DVD playback and playing GTA SA.

mradun · Oct 27, 2005, 02:31 AM

Hey, I'm having trouble downloading your mod tool. I get the OCX error described on your page, but I should go into a quick detail:

Compaq v2311
Turion 64
ATI x200 Mobility RADEON

My harddrive is partitioned so that C: is Windows XP Professional and D: is Windows XP Pro x64. I'm wondering if this is causing problems with your program. I'm in the 64-bit edition right now.

Any ideas on getting it to run? (Yes, I tried downloading the ocx and putting it in various places, on both partitions...)

TimeTraveller · Oct 29, 2005, 01:03 PM

Hello Patje,

first of all thank you very much for your great work.
I would like to know if there is any chance to include the resolution 1680x1050 (my standart res) into your moblity modder, since i have to patch the inf file manually every time after using the modder to update my drivers.
The Catalyst Mobile drivers by ATI does not support this resolution, too.
I wrote a feedback to the crew today, hoping to get an answer.

Thank you very much in advance and have a nice weekend.

Greetings from germany.

sufdude111 · Oct 31, 2005, 06:00 AM

Hey Patje,

Im a newbie, but i had an issue with the Modtool. I used the 5.10 drivers from the ATI site, carefully followed all directions, and even re-downloaded everythings. The Modtool ran the install again, but in the middle i still recieved the "INF missing" message. Also, I assume that i am suppose to point the modtool to the overall directory containing all the unzipped ATI driver files.

Driver works on my Radeon 9700 128mb but no luck with my native resolution of 1280*800

llamablaster · Nov 3, 2005, 07:41 AM

I have the Radeon 9700 128mb too and i have also tried modding the new ati 5.10 catalyst and yet i cannot get my native resolution(1280x800) just as JC7727 cant! please any help anyone can offer would be great

patje · Nov 3, 2005, 04:03 PM

@Simonof17,
try this:
Delete the current C:\ati folder and start over again.\

@mradun,

Are you trying to mod the files under the xp partition or the 64bit partition?
Try to do the modding under XP first.

@Timetraveller,
I'll try to put in the next version. I see you know how to do it, otherwise I would have recommended Powerstrip.

@sufdude,
what video card does your laptop have?

@JC and IIamablaster,
Have you tried the 3.1 version? http://users.skynet.be/FCB/DHmodtool3.1.exe
If so try using powerstrip (google for a link)

Sorry haven't been around much guys, always busy busy busy...

medking · Nov 4, 2005, 01:35 AM

patje

i am so sorry to disturb you~

but i can't download DHmodtool3.1.exe from this website:[color=#800080]http://users.skynet.be/FCB/DHmodtool3.1.exe[/color]

and i have the same problem as JC and IIamablaster

Thank you!

HardwareFee · Nov 4, 2005, 04:09 PM

I tried the 3.1, but it didn't work. Max res still at 1024x768 instead of 1280x800.

llamablaster · Nov 5, 2005, 07:45 PM

I got the link to work for dhmodtool3.1 here it is http://users.skynet.be/FCB/files/DHmodtool3.1.exe still no luck with the 1280x800 res. though

Hello Patje !!!
I`ve got a problem with my Acer Aspire 1694wlmi (X700 - 256MB)
I`ve downloaded the latest drivers (Ati Catalyst 5.11) , installed it ... then dl the Mobility Modder , but when I start it it gives me this error :
"Component 'Richtx32.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered , a file is missing or invalid "
and then I can`t do anything but to press OK and the program closes !!!
How can I fix that ?
10x in advanced !!!

patje · Nov 15, 2005, 02:43 PM

check out www.hardwareheaven.com/patje at the bottom of the page are the instructions

c0rp1 · Nov 15, 2005, 03:04 PM

Patje ... 10x
Final question from me !
Which drivers are the best :
1. ATI CATALIST 5.11 with the Mobility Modder v3.1
2. The latest Omega Driver
3. 5-11-mobile_xp_dd_ccc_enu_27349 (Patje you gave this file to someone in this thread , and now I`m with them )

Pls Patjie .... just answer this question for me !
10x a lot !!!!!

patje · Nov 15, 2005, 03:12 PM

well, the best drivers I don't really know.
It depends what you want, some games will run better with the omega's some won't
That's for you to find out.

I always use stock Ati drivers myself (or with the modtool for the laptop) and i'm quite happy with them

c0rp1 · Nov 15, 2005, 03:14 PM

10x 4 your opinion !

Jkilla · Nov 16, 2005, 03:10 PM
