I think we're going to get this for the next set.

Thanks to everyone for the nice remarks!!

Work in progress along with the 9800SE mod, and some other tricks

TrevGlas · Sep 10, 2005, 05:06 AM

Thanks guys for the great set!!

Spellbot 5000 · Sep 10, 2005, 05:09 AM

I'm running an X800 XT Platinum Edition card, and when I try to install these, I get the error "This display driver is not compatible with the dsiplay adapter(s) installed in your system." The standard Catalysts and Omega's both install fine, so I know the problem lies just with this driver set.

Doesn't this usually mean there's some entry missing in the inf files that lists my card, so the drivers aren't recognizing it? If so, just wanted to give you a heads up for the final release of the drivers.

In the meantime, anyone know of a fix for the aboe error and how to force these drivers to install?

PoopyTheJ · Sep 10, 2005, 05:27 AM

yeah spellbot I need your Device ID, and I'll send you over a fix, which is wierd since I know at least one of my testers has a x800xtPE, is it powercolor?

pencap75 · Sep 10, 2005, 05:32 AM

Any issues with using these drivers and ATI Tray Tools?

Nope, a Sapphire. The problem might be that my X800 XT Platinum is an AGP part, which I hear were released in very low numbers, so it's an easy card to overlook when crafting custom driver sets..

Device ID = 4a50

pr0digal jenius · Sep 10, 2005, 06:57 AM

or it could be that sapphire like editing their device ID's to be "special"

heh What sucks I just have 6gig hard drive and very full lol only game that fits on doom3 and 3dmark03 with 1gig left :P I couldn't even defrag it. If anyone want donate me 10-20gig hard drive for me even test more games let me know I really could used help because my 120gig is for xp

I'd scored 5749 on them

in 3dmark03. And my money kinda tight right now.

Who is Drew? I want to sign up for testing the drivers in Windows 2000 Pro, which is completely updated (And if needed, Im using Windows 2000 Server Edition as well, so I can give it a try too), because Windows 2000 is what im using

But I have no idea who Drew is, so maybe he can PM me/email me

I think i'll wait for the next set, since it says BF2 Optimizes!! I cant wait!!

I am not sure what you guys did, but I am very impressed w/ these drivers. I have only tried one game, but it will be the game I play the most for a while (Madden 06), and these drivers made a huge difference. For the past 2-3 years whenever my team would break the huddle, or when I would bring up the play diagram the game would stutter no matter what settings or drivers I would use. I figured it was just my PC or crappy EA coding. However after installing these drivers those stutters are totally gone. It felt so weird playing w/o the stutters because they had become almost like part of the game to me.

Its the same for my friend with Battlefield 2 - as i said earlier he was going to buy another 1 gig of ram as he is a total battlefield2 junkie. As I love the dhzeropoints so much on my nvidia card I recommended he give these a shot, so he did (he doesnt like modded sets as he had bad experiences). Anyway he installed the drivers and we both couldnt believe the differences. The frame rate isnt higher than the offical drivers but the smoothness is brilliant, he is over the moon and says he is going to join up here to thank you guys, if he can stop playing the game now that is.

But major kudos guys, Zer0point drivers are getting the name for ingame smoothness. I think that should be your motto. I hope you continue to work on IQ and in game smoothness rather than 3dmark crap, who cares about that garbage anyway.

petri1 · Sep 10, 2005, 12:59 PM

well until the catalyst 5.8 realese i dropped al 3dmark aquamark benches and did fraps on games instead wich gives a more "real" measurment on the drivers so i skipped all 3dmark benches forever now it is game paly that i look for

I'm that tester!

The thing is that mine is an AGP VIVO flashed to XT PE. No problems here so far.

Have you tried to install the driver manually via de Device Manager?

grecco_julio · Sep 10, 2005, 03:45 PM

i won't try these

FnF · Sep 10, 2005, 04:41 PM

LOL, what a reaction, why not? And if that is the only thing you can say, you prolly can better say nothing

petri1 · Sep 10, 2005, 05:14 PM

No,i'll try it.I didn't think about that..

PoopyTheJ · Sep 10, 2005, 06:59 PM

Spellbot, try running the setup.exe in the drivers directory rather than the main setup.exe and then the setup in the CP directory, will help me narrow down where the error is....

I still get the same error when running the individual setup files.

UnTouchAble · Sep 11, 2005, 01:24 PM

Installing these really messed up my computer, not even a uninstall would stop it, it made everything in 8bit colour! It said change the colour mode as it too low, so i tried and it said the card controller was made for a differant version of windows? Luckly a on top installed off ATI drivers fixed this! I dont know what happened here guys, since others got them to install fine?

:/

BIG_FREAK · Sep 11, 2005, 03:08 PM

Small Problem with these drivers.

Every time I exit out of a game I get twoo error dings no error windows popups just the sound.

any Ideas.

P.S. I would Love to help you guys Beta test your ATI driver sets, who do I talk to about that.

I feel I have a good understanding of hardware and how drives work and Would love to help you guys make the best drivers ever.

Thanks

FnF · Sep 11, 2005, 03:18 PM

UnTouchAble:
You should use DriverCleaner Pro 1.2 first before installing the drivers, then it should work fine.
