Windows 7: Mobility Radeon X1300 not working on Windows 7

Hi all,

I have upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit, I am having problems with my Dell Inspiron E1505 / 6400. The Mobility Radeon X1300 can't be detected at all. I cannot run games such as World of Warcraft, or Mass Effect, unless the drivers work.

I have installed Catalyst 8.12 drivers from DriverHeaven, and also modified the drivers using HH Mobility Modder. There is still no change.

Just a FYI,

Any suggestions?

Hi there, uninstall your current video card drivers, run driver sweeper to remove any leftovers from the uninstall, reboot and install the latest catalyst driver (10.12) which has support for both, your card and windows 7.

EDIT: oh noes, i just re-read the whole thing, i misread, it's mobility radeon, i think there's no support for that card in windows 7. i'll post back in a few minutes

OK, here's what i found on the forums, check those out
