Uninstalling ATi drivers

[kiddingguy]

Hello,

Everytime I try to update my ATi drivers on Vista this ain't possible since 8.08.

I tried the cat-uninstaller (AtiCimUn), I cleaned my registry afterwards with CCleaner.

But still I get these install issues with 8.09 and higher.

So I was thinking that maybe these drivers-uninstallers won't fully work.

Is there some other utility that does uninstall better?

Driver Cleaner, you can find a free version out there somewhere. It used to be free but is now 9.99. Worked wonders for me.

Dude, I just spent the last 2 hours updating from 8.8 to today's 8.11. What a huge pain in the ass.

I don't know of any tools that will do it for you tho. You're right that they don't fully work, you'd have to delete some stuff yourself.

Control panel > uninstall "ATI Catalyst Install Manager" Select the option do uninstall EVERYTHING ATI related.

Start up your new ATI package you just downloaded. Use the uninstaller here next.

Go to Program Files folder and delete ATI Technologies folder (the whole thing)

Use CCleaner registry cleaner

Go back to ATI package and install

I also had errors about CLI.implementation and MOM.implementation with the CCC, hopefully you don't run into that too.

Nah, I did get it working after all :p

In the driverheaven link above I gave you need to uninstall (right click > uninstall... not delete like normal files) all the ones with "90ba9c70f846762e" in your /Windows/assembly folder. Then I uninstalled all versions of .NET from Control Panel then used this to clean up what was left. Then just download and install all new versions of .NET from Microsoft (updates patches and SP's) and then install ATI.

So far, so good. I managed - with this use of driverheaven's link - to install 8.11. Thx for that one rpger81

However, now I get this crazy KIS 2009 notication (see screenshot).

I placed the MOM.exe and CCC.exe, CLIstart.exe, CLI.exe (all in the ATI.ACE\Core-Static folder) on the trusted applications list.

Still I got this message, which didn't show up at 8.09 ATi drivers.,

Can someone tell me which file(s) I -also- need to exclude (and include in mu KIS2009 on the trusted list :))

After I click allow now for this session onto this message, I got another message on the CLIstart.exe (which is also included).

That the ATi icon sits in my icon tray (finally).

So basically, is there a way to include all ATi related files in a safe bin, so that my computer starts with no interruptions?

[kiddingguy]

noone a suggestion or solution to prevent this KIS popup?
