Omega Drivers will NOT work on my 9800Pro

I decided to make the jump from the Cats to the Omega's.

I uninstalled my cats, booted in safe mode, ran driver cleaner, rebooted, installed the Omega's and they didnt work properly. Everytime I try and click "ATI Tray Tools" I get the error "Can not find ATI video board or no Catalyst drivers installed!" and when I try to click the ATI 3d Panel Control I get "Windows is searching for ATIPRBXX.EXE"
When I try to play a game like CS:S, it runs the game in SOFTWARE graphics mode.

Can anyone help me out, I really want to get these Omega Drives to work.

thanks

I just really want to get these working, but I dont think they are ever going to work

Also when I uninstall them, at the last second of the uninstall it says "Cannot find file Atiiiexx.dll", but then it still says "uninstall complete"

any help please.

Go to your Device Manager and open up the Display Adapters listing. Tell us what you see there.

Instead of writing it all out, I took some pictures for you guys. Hope they help. I've only heard praise for these drivers, and I really want to give them a shot and get them to work.

When you reboot into Windows, you need to let Windows install the native VGA drivers. Don't cancel that option; let Windows proceed to do its thing.

After that, you should then be able to install the drivers of your choice. BUT, it's important that the correct Windows VGA native drivers be installed first.

At this point, I'd suggest Removing those two instances that have the Yellow warning and then reboot and proceed as I said above.
