ATi 7.1 Drivers Fail To Find Any "Installable Components"


Recommended Posts

Since playing with Vista Ultimate (32-bit) for a few days, I've managed to sort out most of the niggles I have with the OS. But the one that's still bothering me is the graphics card drivers from ATi. Whenever I run the 7.1 installer (either English or International), I get the option of Install, Update or Remove. I choose Install, then Custom (Express does the same), and after the "Detecting Graphics Hardware" progress bar, all I get is a dialog box stating "Failed To Find Any Installable Components".

Now I have managed to get my system to run with what I assume is the correct driver by manually pointing my Device Manager to the C:\ATI folder and then choosing "ALL-IN-WONDER X800 Series". That driver is dated 18/1/07 with version 8.333.0.0. But my problem, assuming that is the correct driver, is that I cannot load the Catalyst Control Center. So my options are severely limited.

Is there any way I can force the ATi installer to run through fully? I've tried running as Administrator and in Safe Mode.

Graphics Card: ATi All In Wonder X800GT (PCI-E)

Motherboard: MSI NEO4-FI nF4 Ultra (S939)

I can't answer your question but I do know my colleague has the same issue on RC1. Are you able to use the built in tv tuner?

The All In Wonder features aren't supported on Vista yet :(

I can live without those for a while, but it'd be useful to get into the Catalyst Control Center to tweak the display settings etc.
