so your tried this fix : Catalyst AGP Hotfix - Radeon HD 4000 Radeon HD 3000 and Radeon HD 2000 Series AGP products post all your system specs
It isn't your video card that is the problem, it is the lack of a working AGP driver that is the problem. From the specs of you motherboard,
ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
based on the age and the chipset, there never will be a working motherboard driver. About the only option you have if you want to use Windows 7 is a new computer. You want to keep using you video card, you're going to have to stick with XP.
I'm having the same issue as everyone else. I have tried everything out there that I could find to fix this issue to no avail. I'm running the Sapphire HD 3850 AGP and can't get Windows 7 to install the right driver. I thought I had it once but when I rebooted, the screen was either all black or just the small desktop logo and I couldn't do anything. HELP!!!!!!
CDKrash Your board has a VIA chipset ASRock > Products > 4CoreDual-SATA2 R2.0 Is everything else in device manager looking good ? Drivers all installed just having trouble with the GFX card? If so you may want to try what is posted in post #2 Fabe
CDKrash, welcome to the forum.
In your case there isn't a Windows 7 AGP driver but there is a Vista driver (you didn't specify 32 or 64 bit so here are links to both),
32 bit - Drivers - Download
64 bit - Drivers - Download
that should work OK in Windows 7.
Hello All,
Thanks for your replys. Yes the GFX was the only thing that was wrong, everything else installed OK. I tried all of your ways and after each time, nothing. But the last time I did the update driver-let me choose-have disk, Selected the CL_ .inf file then selected the first HD 3850 driver. And Vwala!!!! I think we are all good now. I don't know which way was the right one. But hey it works now, that's all that really matters! Thank you all so much, I was about ready to start pulling hair out.
