Really updated from 7.2? or from earlier?

I have a Dell 1505 also with an x1400 and after the detecting Hardware stage it won't let me click 'next' because the latest are already installed aparently :s

You are not alone here, I have a Dell E1505/6400 with an ATi X1400 also and it says the same thing for me.

I wonder what is the deal here.

737-26900: Radeon? products - Catalyst 7.3 for Vista Causes BSOD Error Referencing Win32k.sys in Some Systems

Ati took the honor of bsod'ing my Vista install for the first time, workaround provided in the article worked nicely though.

Of course now I can't start CCC for some reason..

Dood! That's exactly what happened to my system. I ended up reformatting ... lol. Also, CCC wouldn't start with mine either so I went back to 7.2.

i had 3 bsods after installing these 7.3's. in safe mode theres no issue whatsoever.. after my 4th attempt to restart it finally decided to work...

i uninstalled previous 7.2's and installed 7.3's with no issues. for some reason the bsods were not logged by the even viewer as gfx related.. or ati driver related .!?!

I want to make very soon (maybe tomorrow) a fresh Vista Ultimate x64 install, I hope I won't have BSOD if I install 7.3.... :cry:

Chances are if you were getting one before, you will get one after the clean install. It happened to me yesterday. Since there was NO way to tell it was from the graphics drive, I thought Vista was bugging out. So, I formatted and proceeded to install the 7.3's again. As soon as I rebooted, bam, another BSOD. Had to do a system restore and install the 7.2's. Since then it's been working great.

I hesitate to install 7.2 or try 7.3..... I think it's a risk if I install 7.3....

      I named Hitler because he is the de facto anti-semite. But you don't have to hate Jews to be a genocidal maniac. In fact, these days, so called semites are the ones acting in ways that would make Hitler proud.

    • Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today

      By zikalify · Posted

      Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today by Paul Hill Apple will begin enforcing the Texas Age Assurance Law (SB 2420) following a recent court ruling that lifted an injunction on SB 2420. Starting June 4 (today), Apple will enforce strict age-verification and parental-consent rules for new Apple accounts created in Texas. This move will affect children under 18 who go to download apps or attempt to make in-app purchases. Apple previously expressed privacy concerns related to this law, but compliance is now mandatory for the company, nevertheless. Apple will use several APIs to follow the law. Principally, the Declared Age Range API will fetch the specific user age bracket (Under 13, 13-15, 16-17, or 18+) and a verification method. The Significant Change API (PermissionKit) will trigger a system dialog for parental consent if an app gets a major update or an age-rating shift. There is also a new property type in StoreKit that allows developers to automatically check when their app’s age rating has changed on a user’s device and then use the Significant Change API to request parental consent. Finally, App Store Server Notifications can be configured to tell developers when a parent revokes consent, blocking app launches. To ensure they are ready for these changes, developers must immediately use Apple’s sandbox testing environment to validate these APIs in their apps. For any developers out there finding this to be inconvenient, get used to it. Other regions, such as Utah, Louisiana, and Brazil, are looking at, or have implemented, similar rules.
