Hello, and a little help

Post by linus21 »

Hey all, i just signed up for the 14-day free-trial today, but i am having trouble getting my video card drivers to work, so i haven't gotten to play yet.

When i try to get online i get a message saying "Your Video Drivers are not up to date.

Device: MOBILITY RADEON 7500
Current Driver Version: 6.2.3.0
Reccomended Driver Version: 6.4.3.0

Would you like to update your drivers?"

When i click yes and go to the page i can't find the correct drivers. Any ideas?

Thanks all

Get new radeon drivers from ATI's web-page (http://www.ati.com).

XP. Tried ATI's Webpage and i still can't get it to work, might just call Customer Service in the morning, but i usually like to stay away from torture when at all possible.

I had similiar problem on my old computer. It kept detecting the wrong drivers. I just stated clicking no to the updating drivers and I never had a problem.It's annoying but it worked fine

Same here. I also had warnings abot the AGP buffer (I think) but clicking "No" took me to the game without problems.

Hi, I sometimes play on a laptop with Ati Radeon Mobility as well... you're right, the drivers don't exist. I suppose it's looking for the driver used by non-mobility cards. Anyways, just click no, and the game should continue to load. I've never had any problems with this... good luck and see you in atys!

A small suggestion is to look at the vendor's hompage of your computer as they sometimes tend to make "specialized" versions of the drivers for "their hardware" which renders that the drivers from the manufacturer of the graphical chip are not working nor installable.

Had this problem on my laptop - go and download the Omega Ati Drivers and hopefully like me it sorted the problem.

These drivers are the Ati Radeon drivers optimised for gaming and I use them on all my PC's.

When i clicked no it would go to a blank screen, so i went ahead and downloaded the omega drivers... It seems to be working now. Thanks to everyone for your help.
