ati radeon 4650 bsod on boot

If they're in the device manager, you could just right click on them and choose uninstall, while checking the box to "delete the driver software for this device."

How old is your Mobo? ive gone through a few PCs and I dont recall ever having to disable the onboard graphics when putting on Drivers for a vid card.

Im running an ATI HD4870, had the card inserted when I installed 7 (clean install), it booted up normally with its own drivers installed for the card. I then simply ran the latest drivers on the ATI website for Win7, installed fine, rebooted, and then all was fine.

Quickly reading through the thread I can see you were installing other software before your graphics drivers were being installed. To really troubleshoot it I would be installing the drivers of the vid card FIRST after a clean install and not installing any other software (AV, gamepad etc) prior, and then see if you can get it to bsod.
just m2c.

Good luck.

My mobo the M2a-VM HDMI is just over a year old.

Originally when i first installed 7 i had the ati card in..altho when it came to the 'windows is starting for the first time yadda yadda, detecting this n that it detected vga settings and went bsod. No sh$t.

Thinking old school, i took the vid card out and did a new installation. finally got into windows 7 desktop nice n smooth..Followed my old school routine and uninstalled whatever graphics it found, which happened to be the x1200 (x1250) on board. Shut the pc down, installed my ati card, set up bios, i have all my manuals so i know to disable hdmi, surround view etc and ensure that pcie is the primary adaptor, as in the mobo you can't physically disable the onboard graphics.

I restarted the machine, it went straight into windows 7, detected the card, installed its own win 7 driver and wanted the restart..then that is were the bsod's began, it would sit on load win 7 screen for a few secs, I see num lock light go on and off, screen flicks and wammo, bsod.

Now that was what i call a barebone install, the OS and nothing else, i had a ps2 mouse in and a logitech usb $15 keyboard connected, i had my other hdd's out and my other monitors were not plugged in..

Following torrentg's first advice of removing that .sys file and updating software manually worked, i restarted and it was working, altho when i installed the ccc software it bsod again.

So i have rinse and repeated my own process a number of times now with epic fail.

I called tech support for asus and gave my bios version etc and he said its fine as is for win7 and that and the only device drivers that may need updating were the ones i mentioned earlier.

See you were lucky, you actually got into desktop on your first login with your card, mine bsod before it got there on installation.

So what exactly is the ccc software?
if you had it working without the ccc software and then it bsods when you put it on, wouldnt you just rinse repeat but not put on the ccc? (sorry i dont actually know what it is).

oh and some where along the way i blew the digital input of my 20" lg lcd, a bit of google action reported 1 in 4 of these monitors have a chance in poppin the digital input in 1 - 4 months, guess i got lucky, mine survived a tear

Lastest drivers from 9-12-vista64_win7_64dd used.

After reading other posts about ppl having other issues with too much ram in installation i thought, well you never know, i took some ram out to make it 3gig.

At same time put the card in.

Windows found and installed its own crap.

Restart no prob. Made a restore point. Ran a rating 5.0

Ran the driver above mentioned only. Then did a rating on my pc, 5.9 not bad.

Restarted with no BSOD. Yay freaking yay, made a restore point. Do i install the
CCC, still undecided.

Should I put the other ram in. Undecided, but probably will.

Done..

hi,,, i have read through this thread and its very simaler to another im looking at on this site,,,, its regarding windows 7 and HD4000 series graphics cards, and also Acer laptops and the switch able ATI graphics some acers carry,,,, which unfortunatly i have just got 2 off,,, for my wife and youngest daughter,,,,
the way i see it is,,,, there are no graphic drivers available for HD4000 series cardsd and windows 7,,, not from ATI or from Acer,,, i rang up Acer service line and put it to them about there being no drivers and they confirmed it,,,, apparently the box makers Lenovo also make a laptop with switchable ATI graphics processing units the same as in my Acer Aspire 7535G,,, but they got round this issue by making there own drivers for their customers who had bought there pc's and were in the same difficulty,,,
here is a link to the thread in question,,,, i hope this helps,,
Radeon Mobility HD 4570 Not working after win 7 upgrade
very frustrating for me now,,, as im sat waiting for a driver update by either Acer or ATI,,,,
good luck with your issue
