Catalyst 4.11 and Catalyst Control Center

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.videocards.ati (More info?)

Ok I downloaded and installed the Catalyst 4.11 drivers for a 9800Pro.
I can not get Catalyst Control Center to open. If I click on Wizard in
the Start Menu it says "Catalyst Control Center Desktop Setup Wizard
failed".

Running Windows XP Pro w/ SP2. I tried re-installing but re-installing
killed my Norton Auto-Protect. So then I had to re-install Norton.

Any help?

Thanks,

Bill

I had the same trouble, gone after a couple of reboots for some reason.

I just installed these for an x800 pro and although they work fine and
give pretty good performance, my PC takes five times longer to
completely boot and all I get is horizontal colored stripes on my
monitor when I bring it out of Sleep mode. Nice work ATI...=/

Use the non-CCC version? The CCC is a work in progress. Currently it's ten
pounds of shite in a five-pound bag, although the product itself is pretty
decent IME...

Code bloat? Occam's Razor? Trust me, sometimes a simpler interface is much
better...

Thanks for the reply.

CCC to work. I double click on the icon, I see a flash on my screen
and nothing.

Even with that I cannot get it to work. I double click on the Icon or
right-click on the icon in the tray and I see a quick flash on my
screen and then nothing.

I'm wondering why you guys are wanting CCC so badly when it sounds to me
that it's very buggy at the moment. You don't have to have CCC if you don't
want it, all you have to do is DL the 4.11 drivers that have the standard
control panel. I found this drivers right on the front end of ATI's web
site. They have both drivers versions listed. Ones with CCC, and the ones
without. I installed the non CCC drivers and they installed great. No
problems at all (so far) JLC

Try the free tool called "driver cleaner 3" to remove all ATi residue after
the driver has been uninstalled.
Then reinstall the ati driver including CC

Well, it looks coool but honestly I uninstalled it and returned to the
control panel version as well.
What me disturbed most is the awful long loading time of the CC

I think I'll do the same thing....did you just uninstall the CCC or
the entire bundle then reinstall with 4.11 with the old control panel?

No, no solutions. I have reverted back to the non CCC version.
Actually I need to do a clean install of the video drivers as
something are acting weird.

1) When Xp starts up, my screen is very clear. Then as soon as the Ati
tray icon loads my screen like washes out. If I go to the Ati Control
Panel via right-click the Desktop and click Color everything reverts
back to normal.

2) Another thing that I have not seen before with my 9800 Pro is in
the Hardware Device manager I have 2 9800Pro's listed in Display
Adapters.

I removed the entire bundle since there is no CP at all when u just remove
the CCC - I am not sure if the CP can be installed separately..

OK, thanks for the response. I did the same thing. Normal control
panel with 4.11 drivers back in service now. BTW, I sent ATI a trouble
message and they sent me a useless form reply back so I decided they
weren't gonna be much help.
