ATI Mobility IGP 320M: working modded Catalyst 9.5 on WinXP x86|Compaq Presario 2100
Hi, I'm new here and I wanted to make a small contribution on this IGP, on WinXP 32-bit. I'm going to briefly say what versions of Catalyst I tried with the final version of ATI Mobility Modder (1.2.1.0) and worked and which didn't and how.
- Catalyst 9.3 & 9.5 install fine after modding them. - Catalyst 9.6 & 9.7, will mod & install but WinXP won't use them, it will keep using the 'VGA Safe' Driver. - Catalyst 9.8, 9.12, 10.2, 10.5 will mod but won't install correctly, in Device Manager you'll get the yellow circle with black exclamation mark. - Any later version will not mod (tried about 4). In some cases if the installer couldn't install the driver I did it through the Device Manager, 'Update Driver' Option and wen't looking the .inf file in the decompressed driver in 'X:\ATI\Support\n.n-driver-WinXP-32-bit' directory. One of the drivers that didn't install just gave BSOD, don't remember which one. I didn't have the time to try Cat Mod. I hope it helps. Good Luck. Edit: I spent about 18 hours total (This Notebook is really slow for today's standard), downloading (36 KB/s) & trying all these drivers. WinXP SP3 32-bit, fully patched, updated drivers and latest BIOS (May 2005). Edit 2: For latest AMD/ATI Drivers Last edited by Atinite; Feb 21, 2012 at 08:40 AM. Reason: Correcting some errors |
