Win 7 build 7077 x64 and Cat 9.4

Chaos · Apr 12, 2009, 11:03 PM

Install of 9.4 was borked from the begining, the Cat Instal Manager, CCC and Visual C++ were my install options. The driver was never even listed as an option to install. The items listed appeared to install but the driver did not. CCC would not open with the default MS ATI driver. Installed the driver portion manually then CCC would open and some things function like fan speed control worked but the new Overdrive didnt work and after manually adjusting clock speeds they had zero effect on performance.

I had to revert to 9.3 with build 7077.

Hmmm as I said on the other thread will try them out here tonight I also have to try out Comodo firewall for Robert to see if it works with this build.

Chaos · Apr 15, 2009, 08:04 PM

I even tried manually installing the 9.4 drivers with the 9.3 CCC components and that wouldnt work either so something must be messed with 9.4

Judas · Apr 15, 2009, 08:07 PM

i'm still using build 7000...

i'll have to go download 7077

Chaos · Apr 15, 2009, 08:22 PM

let me know how you make out Judas

mkk · Apr 15, 2009, 08:32 PM

I just updated to 7077 and the separate Display Driver Only package worked while the full did not seem to identify the card for the driver.

Judas · Apr 15, 2009, 09:06 PM

i don't have an account so i have to find other means of obtaining 7077 so it may be awhile

Chaos · Apr 15, 2009, 10:04 PM

Cool thx I never grabbed the individual packages. I have now and after installing the driver package then the CCC only package we have lift off

Mac Daddy · Apr 16, 2009, 02:35 AM

I have 7077 here and will feedback after I get back from TO

Judas · Apr 16, 2009, 02:59 AM

i should have 7077 by no later then end of tomorrow

H82LUZ · Apr 21, 2009, 08:31 PM

same thing happened to me with 9.4,Also no southbridge driver or northbridge would show up under install manager.Any thoughts on what i should do to install my chip-set drivers?ASUS M3A79T-Deluxe .

Judas · Apr 21, 2009, 08:35 PM

go to ati website and select the chipset drivers as the option and download the individual southbridge drivers.. (the m3a79t doesn't have a northbridge....)

Uh so what is the 790fx and 750 south for then ? explain why no north bridge ?

Just tried the 9.1 cat south&north bridge filter drivers and they worked.

Judas · Apr 21, 2009, 11:49 PM

lol i'm on crack... sorry

Mac Daddy · Apr 22, 2009, 03:05 AM

Cat 9.4's work fine here

Partizan · Apr 22, 2009, 01:11 PM

I also had the same problems on a friends computer.

For myself, I just use ATI driver only package + ATI Tray Tools (IMHO much better than CCC)

Mac Daddy · Apr 23, 2009, 12:48 AM

ATI Tray Tools is outdated by 2 years how can it be better?

ATI Tray Tools

mkk · Apr 23, 2009, 10:24 AM

I think there's some newer beta of ATI Tray Tools in their forum. I used the driver+ATT combo long ago when the brand new CCC was a mess, but todays CCC has been fine for me.

Partizan · Apr 23, 2009, 10:28 AM

Yup, mkk is right. Here is the permanent link to latest beta ATI Tray Tools. Enjoy

I still think ATT is way better than CCC, because it's smaller, has lots of option (over and under clocking, voltage control, FAN control, gaming profiles, hardware monitoring, over and under clocking profiles) and nonetheless save icon position feature

Mac Daddy · Apr 23, 2009, 12:33 PM

Thanks Partizan I will check it out

I remember when the CCC was a mess I used the NGO drivers with CP then. May have been my card then a Sapphire X1950 but I never had any luck with ATT. I will try them again and as far as the CCC the Cat guys have come a long way with this for sure

Judas · Apr 23, 2009, 08:07 PM

just a fyi...

i've installed 7077 on a number of machines and installed 9.4's with no error

Mac Daddy · Apr 24, 2009, 12:22 AM

Cool thanks for the feedback Judas will test them more myself on the weekend.

preyingrazor · Apr 26, 2009, 04:13 PM

Same problem with Cat 9.4. CCC won't install.

Will try 9.3

Edit: the following worked for me. went to ati.com instead of game.amd.com and selected win 7 32 bit -> ati mobility radeon.

it downloaded exclusive win 7 drivers. not vista + win 7. And CCC is now working.

The only glitch is it's showing Vista power plans in ATI power management and I can't change any settings. Everythings blanked out.
