ATI Mobility x300 – Help!

[jonlim]

Anybody? 😥

Try to open the 9-3_vista32_win7_32_dd.exe using 7-zip, extract the folder “9-3_vista32_win7_32_dd.exe$_OUTDIRPackagesDriversDisplayLH_INF” and try to install the driver using method 2 described in the Drivers page of the Manual.

I don’t own an ATI card so couldn’t test it.

Good luck!

Hi Arris..

Thanks for the reply… I will give this a try and post the results!

Happy Friday!

Hi Arris,

Thank you — it worked!

The ATI drivers installed and the only difference from your instructions is that I had to specify the driver manually instead of letting Windows 2008 detect it automatically from the INF file.

Device Manager -> Display Adapters -> Standard VGA Adapter -> Right click “Update Driver Software” -> Browse my computer for driver software -> Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer -> Show all devices -> Have Disk -> (Specify the extracted folder) -> (Select the name of the hardware)

Windows 2008 “Workstation” is working on my laptop now! Thanks again!

Best regards,

Jon

I’m glad you got it working and thanks for the good explanation so other people with a similar problem can fix it too! 🙂
