hey torrentg i have a similar problem with this card setup... although i tried the link above to get to the site and it will not let me access the information. i have the card installed firmly and yet my compy will not see that there is a agp slot. it reads only the onboard video yet my monitor is plugged into the ati card. help
thanks
Hi, Dlopez5. Ya, I checked the link and I see it's down. Tell me the 4 digit hardware id for your card and I'll upload a new .inf for you.
Page 1 has instructions.
In the meantime, you might want to check if your motherboard could support running the onboard video with the AGP video card, simultaneously. Some motherboards cannot.
Hi, I have the exact same issue with the driver not loading. Could you repost the .inf file again as rapid share says the limit for downloads has been reached. 9596 is after dev_
My difference is that catalyst will not open
Here's the inf for for 9596, based on the the 9.10 beta Catalyst from Guru3d.com. Should be good for the 9.9 Catalyst from ATI site as well or otherwise, too.

Thank you for the file. I tried to update the driver by browsing to your file but Windows keeps telling me that the best driver is installed.
I have disabled the automatic windows download in the device installation settings
Any ideas? TY
You have to go to the device manager, right click your video card, choose properties. Click driver tab, then update driver. Click "browse my computer for driver software." Then, "let me pick from a list if device drivers on my computer." Next, have disk. Then browse. Now find the inf I made that you should have overwrote the default inf with that you previously extracted.
I followed the exact path to the file and it says: windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device
windows found driver software for your device but encountered a error while attempting to install it
The system cannot find the file specified
That sounds like you did not overwrite the old extracted .inf with the newly downloaded one. The new .inf has to be placed exactly over the old one, overwriting it inside the extracted folder. Then install the .inf from there.
yeah that/s the same as mine... this problem seriously sucked when it shut my cpu completely down the other day.
i tried writing this myself the other day and i recieved an error message saying that windows could not regonize the license... strange. but hopefully when i get home i will try and reload win 7 and see if this will work out. downgraded to vista for the time being to fix the uglyness of xp lol
