Pls someone help me!!!

It don't work on PowerColor 3850 AGP
How to make this driver work's?
Only version working is hotfix 10.8 for XP, but Aero don't working and 3D-games is crashes every new level. My chipset is VIA KT400

Hy I am new here, so there isn't any chance that windows 7 will try to fix the problem with incompatibility ??? I am sad because in my opinion my computer would work great on win 7 if you could just provide us with a driver that will suport our dual core procesor and an ati radeon card...

Hi 122890,

I'm sorry to say this but both Vista and Windows 7 was built to take advantage of today's advancements computing. That is both Windows 7 and Vista requires fairly modern hardware and software to run effeciently.

I'll also have to point out that AGP boards are a thing of the past, same with AGP cards for, obvious reasons, thus the lack of support in the area.

Other than that, it's actually up to the video card manufacturers to support their cards. And what incompatibility issue is there with ATI's/AMD's cards running under Windows 7?

There may be driver issues, but those aren't incompatibilty issues - ATI cards not working under Windows 7 would be an example of a incompatibility issue.

The fact that you can run Windows 7 on these systems says there was/is some support..... but how long do you expect "Microsoft" to support an old technology that has been replaced?

As for Windows 7 not supporting multi-core processors....

not sure where you got that information from, but.... Windows 7 Takes More Advantage Of Multi-Core CPUs - Windows 7

And this.... Multi-Core Support in Windows 7 « IT Expert Voice

My two cents.

sygnus21, agree with everything you said above with one small exception, ATI/AMD do still support their AGP cards; at least those from the HD 2xxx series and up,

Catalyst AGP Hotfix - Radeon HD 4000 Radeon HD 3000 and Radeon HD 2000 Series AGP products

The problem here isn't the lack of support for the video card itself but lack of chipset support, primarily a working AGP/GART driver. In this case the fault for that one lays solely on Nvidia for not providing a working AGP driver for their NF3 chipsets, despite there being nothing else about a system with that chipset from running Windows 7 (then again they dropped the NF3 chipset liker a hot potato shortly after the NF4 chipset came out). And without a working AGP/GART driver there isn't much the video card driver can do but fail to install and/or work properly.

Yes, I understand there’s still support for AGP cards…. for now. I actually looked up that info in your link before making my post and noticed the missing 5000 series AGP cards, and though it's early... I doubt we'll see some 6000 series AGP cards as well. And I haven't even looked towards Nvidia.

This confirms my point about the death of AGP.... again, where are the 5000/6000 series AGP cards? And how many AGP MB are being made today?


Anyway we agree on one thing - support for this does not lay with Microsoft

No, I won't make an .inf file.

Not to worry. That's because the fix for you djeffree is quite simple.

Only different thing you have to do is this first.

Download the CL_83742.rar and extract the .inf from it. Open with notepad. In the third line under [ATI.Mfg.NTx86.6.0] section, change the end 9515 to 9505.

Then follow exact instructions from my first post to install using the .inf you just made. All will be well.

I did what you described above and after restart a BSOD was shown.
I have a Sapphire HD 3850 AGP + Win 7 32bit + Athlon 64 X2 + Motherboard MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum Chipset Nforce3.
Could you help me?

Finnaly all done. I've installed some old GART drivers and now I can enjoy the full power of this card. I don't know from where I got the GART drivers, but it's an old version Microsoft certified. If anyone wants to try also this version of GART e-mail me at .

Now the last question for the man who helped me all the way TorrentG: If I buy a new graphic card with the same chipset HD 4650, but on PCI-Express can I make my PC work on WINDOWS 7??? I must remand you that my motherboard is AsRock a-live dual e-Sata with both PCI-Express and AGP, and with NForce 3 chipset.
