Hello:

I have a computer with a radeon X1300 and since Windows 7 i used the 10.2 Catalyst legacy drivers for Windows Vista. They aren?t great but worked for Windows 8 also. When you execute the package they expand in the c: root ati\support\10-02_Legacy_vista?. They may not run because of the Windows version but you can go to the Device Manager and update the driver from there (browse).

I hope this helps..

I'm using Windows 8 CP on a Dell Inspiron 6400 with an ATI Mobility Radeon X1300. I installed ATI Catalyst 7.5 after modding the drivers with Mobility Modder.

ATI Catalyst 7.5 for Windows Vista 32-bit

ATI Catalyst 7.5 for Windows Vista 64-bit

I hope this works for you.

Edit: Looks like I'm wrong. For the mobility version I couldn't get any version higher than 7.5 to work.

I?m having the same situation with ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 in Windows 8 X64 .... Did yoy solve this problem in Windows 8 X64??? or only in 32 Bits?

Carlos.

Yes, I solved this problem the other day with an ATI Mobility Radeon X1300 and Windows 8 x64.

Here is how to do it:

1. Download ATI Catalyst 9.3 and extract the installation files.

2. Modify the drivers using Mobility Modder (the tool doesn't seem to work on Windows 8, but it works on Windows 7).

3. Disable driver signature enforcement and install the driver '9_3_vista64_win7_64_dd_ccc_wdm_enu\Driver\Packages\Drivers\Display\LH6A_INF\CH_76829.inf' in Device Manager, i.e. Update Driver Software... > Browse my computer for driver software > Let me pick from a group of device drivers on my computer > Have Disk.

Happy to report my experience based on your suggestions:

System: Win 8 32-bit, Inspiron E1505, with Radeon Mobility X1300

At first, I could not run Mobility Modder on Win8, so moved over to a Win7 machine. Modded the Catalyst 7.5 Drivers from the package "7-5_vista32_dd_ccc_enu_46757". After that just went to Device Manager, Display Adaptor -> Upgrade Drivers -> Browse -> Let Me Pick -> Have Disk and selected the .INF file. It instantly recognized Mobility x1300 and ONLY this driver (not an entire list of irrelevant drivers). Installation required disabling UAC and allowing unsigned drivers.

Bumped me up to 1680 x 1050 Resolution. Whew, looks much better. Thanks for all the tips!

Hi Hart Nadav Feuer,

I also have a ATI Radeon X1300pro (silent)

Could you are anyone else place a link with the modded Catalyst 7.5 drivers from the package? I don't have a win7 machine, just win8. Also, I'm not a pro, like you guys.

I bought a new dvb-t card, because I thougt my old one was broken...But now I realise....It's due to win8

Many thanks for your work. Very much appreciated!

I modified the driver of an installer with the characteristics of X1300-1500.

You can find it here: http://www.alaricvs.it/ATI_Radeon_X1300-1500.zip

First, though, you have to uninstall all existing display drivers.

Tell me if it works

I cannot get any ATI Radeon X1300 drivers / Catalyst Control Centre versions to work with Windows 8 CP x64...any help you guys can offer to get it sorted? I'm using a Dell Dimension 9200 from 2007.

Thanks in advance :-)

I solve this driver problem after 3h. Here is the solution for instaling Ati Radeon x1300 driver for Windows 8 32:

1. Download catalyst_8-31-100_vista32_rtm

2. Set for downloaded file(catalyst_8-31-100_vista32_rtm) the compatibility mode for Vista(simple, not Service pack 1 or 2)

3. Instal and enjoy!

    • I like to reminisce about the good old days, way back in autumn 2025 when building a gaming machine was fun and the drives were about $150 when you caught a deal. Yes duh, back in the day we had it gone. Then baby Skynet came along, hiding in AI datacenters demanding more processing power until it reached singularity. End of a not totally fictional story.
    • My experience in the past with older Windows 11 builds was not great on unsupported machines but I recently used Rufus to put the latest build on a older 5th Gen Core Thinkpad T that we upgraded with a SATA SSD and 8GB of RAM four years ago when hardware was reasonable and it seemed pretty fast and solid. Customer is very happy with the performance and will probably get four more years out of that venerable laptop that he loves so much. Another customer just retired his Dell Studio laptop from 2009 running Windows 10. It got an SSD over 10 years ago and did everything he needed it to for 17 years but he also retired last year and is happy doing everything on his iPad now.
    • Apple's newest AirTag 2 gets first big discount by Taras Buria In late January 2026, Apple introduced its second-generation AirTag trackers, bringing a refresh to the old model that has been on the market for half a decade. Now, you can get these new trackers at an all-time low price, thanks to the first big discount that brought the price down by 17% on Amazon. While the second-generation AirTag looks identical to its predecessor, it packs meaningful upgrades inside. The second-gen ultrawideband chip works 50% farther than the original AirTag, allowing you to detect lost items in a wider range. In addition, the second-generation AirTag features an upgraded Bluetooth chip for extended range and a significantly louder speaker (up to 50%) so that you can hear it better when locating a lost item. Note that the second-gen AirTag only works with iPhones and iPads that run iOS/iPadOS 26 and newer, so you need a compatible device to use the tracker. Like the original AirTag, the AirTag 2 is available in two packs: one and four pieces. Both are now available at a notable discount on Amazon, and you can purchase them using the links below. Apple AirTag 2 tracker - $24 | 17% off on Amazon Apple AirTag 2 tracker (four-pack) - $89 | 10% off on Amazon Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S.- specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."
    • “Could” … in the IS the healthcare is run by insurance companies that make indecent profits denying basic treatments to people that are paying money for nothing. Besides, where are all the Trump epigones who were stating that the tariffs were going to paid by foreign companies and not the US citizens? …
