DomZ Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I foolishly installed the XP NF2 chipset drivers, and I think it caused my code 43. I'm going to format and re-install vista (seeing if I have code 43 from install, because when I originally installed I had aero/glass). I'll post back with what I find out.

camesenin Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 I tried this plus uninstalling the drivers in safe mode and still no luck. each time it reboots i get the code 43 error. I'm on day two of looking for a fix but i'm starting to get annoyed. BTW I have an AIW x800 XT and i've been trying to use the Beta Drivers for RC1 (i have RC1 as well) I hope someone fixes this soon. any solution????

randomlag Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Still broken on the latest build 5728 with my 3800+ X2 & Ati Radeon 9800 video card. Clean install to a different partition on my machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeusProto Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 STILL not fixed in RC2! I would wager that this issue is NOT going be fixed for RTM... I have to choose between a 640x480 60Hz resolution OR running my DUAL CORE proc in single core mode (which, oddly, fixes Code 43 for video card...) *Sigh* I suppose I'll file ANOTHER bug report like I did with the previous CPP builds and HOPE blindly that it might get fixed before Vista ships... Time to go back to an OS that works: XP (I'm posting from within Vista, my eyes burning in this 60Hz resolution...) And before anyone points out that this is BETA software... do realize that we are less than a month before RTM... this is a MAJOR issue and should've been fixed before even RC status! System specs for anyone who is curious: Mobo: Gigabye K8U-939 - Uses the ULi M1689 chipset CPU: Athlon 64 X2 3800+ RAM: Corsair PC3200 1GB (2x512) PSU: 480W Antec Power Supply GPU: ATi Radeon 9600 Pro (which worked just fine on an Athlon XP system... the same exact video card) Are ALL systems that use dual core processors and use an AGP video card affected by this STILL UNFIXED problem?

Chode Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Indeed. I've tolerated a lot of bad press about Vista, but this is definately a problem that should have been solved well before the Release Candidate stage. This has decided for me that I will not be buying Vista straight off the shelf. Microsoft will not be getting my money until I have confirmation that this problem is solved. If it's not solved by RTM, then I will not be a happy camper. EDIT: I'm on a single core Athlon XP 2600+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfua Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 (edited) Fixed for me on my laptop in RC2. Seems there are two separate error 43 issues with ati cards. I've had the problem in all prev builds, this is on a single core Pentium M with an ati x700 pro pcie. Indeed.

Polydactyl Posted October 7, 2006 Author Share Posted October 7, 2006 Still have the problem here too on RC2, but I did an upgrade to 5600 instead of a clean install. I don't have a reason to believe the outcome would be any different for a clean install. The worst part is, I'm still not even sure whether to blame Microsoft or ATI.

Paradigum Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Well. I figured I'd drop my experience here. I as well have (Code 43) appearing on my x800pro videocard under Vista build 5600. After searching several forums and tring a lot of the things suggested, the only thing that seems to make any difference is enabling/disabling dialcore support in the bios. System specs: Mobo: Asrock 939Dual-SATA2 ULi 1695 chipset (ULi M1695/ ULi M1567) CPU: Athlon 64 X2 3800+ RAM: Crucial Ballistix PC3200 1GB (2x512) PSU: 480W Antec Power Supply GPU: ATi Radeon x800Pro Anyways, clean install with dualcore disabled, Vista runs quite nicely. Enable dual core, and the videocard gets that error code. VERY annoying. I have yet to report anything to ATI, Microsoft or Asrock/ULI(nvidia). You know. Conspiricy theory. Nvidia (via the ULI drivers) did this directly to break ATI videocards!@ j/k. hahah Well.. I'll keep searchin/tryin and fill in more if I find anything. Take it easy peeps.

ANova Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 (edited) There are some people reporting the Code43 error on systems with nvidia cards as well; my guess is that it's a general error relating to some sort of fault in Vista's codebase.

JnJn Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 There are some people reporting the Code43 error on systems with nvidia cards as well; my guess is that it's a general error relating to some sort of fault in Vista's codebase. i guess it's something with "APIC" and/or "SMB" driver or something like that related to system resources, which is usually a "chipset"/"mainboard" driver package problem. :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidders Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I forced the install of Catalyst 6.4 XP drivers and they install without code 43 error. It now gives me a rating of 1.9 for Aero (still not enough to enable it) but still 1.0 for 3d gaming. Seems to be running OK. Tried 6.9 catalyst drivers and got a BSOD before Windoes started. What is different in 6.4 XP drivers to Vista Drivers? Can you 'fool' vista into enabling Aero? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polydactyl Posted October 23, 2006 Author Share Posted October 23, 2006 No matter how well they work for other things, XP drivers won't ever enable Aero since they aren't WDDM capable. The performance rating is largely irrelevant in terms of whether Aero gets turned on or not. ATI is supposed to put out new drivers "shortly" (whatever that means), so the best advice would be to have patience and hope ATI gets it right in the next driver release.

sidders Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Some people seem to have solved their pronlem but I still have code 43 error with my Radeon x1600 pro, even with latest build 5480. Am I the only one now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiatt66 Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Yes...I do but it's caused by my SiS chipset. They haven't updated it for Vista yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digitalfox Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I really getting sick with this error code 43 crap!!! Everytime a new build of ATI drivers or vista build cames out and i can test it, i pray the the fuc*ing error code goes away, but always the same sh1t... :angry: I can't believe a super huge company like ATI ( now with AMD behind ), can't hire some good developers or software engineers.. I have send reports to microsoft and ATI since windows vista beta 2!! And always the same ****!! :no: I have a HP Pavilion with a motherboard IGP 9100 and a Radeon Mobility 9600, HP doesn't give a sh1t!!! I have tried with installing ATI SMBus driver, the AGP port driver and every solution i have found in the internet with no luck.. I own a small company that gives support for networks in companys, and damn if i had the same suppot quality that microsoft and Ati have, i would be out of work..

Polydactyl Posted November 2, 2006 Author Share Posted November 2, 2006 I'll second that. I'm still getting the Code 43, so I guess this means we can expect the same when Vista goes RTM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

User6060 Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I haven't had any problems with the ATI drivers on my x1400 in rc1 up to rc2. Oh well, wait for final drivers and RTM to complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah wait for RTM... :rolleyes: Don't you get it, this is almost 99% RTM release, Vista RTM is days from release, no driver bugfixing are going to be made that could screw lot's of others users with so small testing time..
