Thread: Windows 7 on HPZD8005AP with ATI Radeon Mobility x600

I have :

• the original XP driver that came with the HP Laptop. Driver date 21/12/2004 ver 6.14.10.6505
• Upgraded to Win7 Enterprise - std VGG
• then via device manager updated the driver - Win 7 correctly identified the ATI Radeon Mobility x600 and worked fine for about 1 hour - then black screen
• Rollback to old VGA drive.
• Installed old XP driver ATI driver that came with the machine
• works fine until I play video in Powerpoint 2010 - Blues screen of death with ati3duag.dll and minidump

Action

• Downloaded the 10.6 Vista /Win7 driver from ATI
• Downloaded and installed the modder
• It seemed to "mod fine" on Win7 machine but it does not change the driver. And I would probaly expect a time and date change on some of the files in the directory. - Nothing - even after reboot.

After reboot the monitor settings are:

• Generic Pnp Monitor and ATI Radeon MObilty x600 Properties
• Adapter info
• Chip Type ATI dsiplay Adpater (0x3150)
• DAC Type Internal DAC (400Mhz)
• Bios Info: BK-ATI VER008.019M.044.003
• Graphics Memory 256 MB

Question:

• Can some bright spark either:
  tell me how to get this driver to update to the latest?
  or point me to a prmodded driver that works!

Many thanks for your help!

Cheers
Ian
