    But what about Catalyst Mobility.exe, isn't it safer, as it first downloads the file to Temporary folder and then you can install the driver anytime. I think I will not risk and use the installer, catalyst mobilility.exe is also supposed to be used for driver update, so ATIMCDnld.MSI is not the only MUST. And i think i need to run ATIMCDnld.MSI on my laptop not desktop right?

    I already have the Catalyst Package Suite on my laptop, but I already said I am not to run the ATIMCDnld.MSI, since it is a setup program, and will try directly to download the drivers to my laptop via internet, I am sure the installer will start but what if it stops in the middle of installation, won't it be something like ejecting CD in the middle of installation of a program, and I am afraid it will cause me more problems then.

    and also if it hangs again make a screenshot of it (prt scr)

    Hi alberttm,

    I believe if you go to the link posted above by GianniDPC again and switch to the middle tab (click on Individual Downloads), then you'll be able to download the full Catalyst package rather than the small 1.2MB "suite", which I think really is a misleading term here.

    The full installer is 89.7MB in size.

    And, to be honest, I'd be a bit weary about directly running the .msi file too, simply because you might end up with some kind of partial install.

    That is what I tried to explain, I don't want to get stuck in the middle of installation of the driver itself. To get stuck in the middle of download is not as risky, well I would say not risky at all.
    Is that really driver or amd utility to control graphic cards settings, properties etc.?

    I understand why you would think that - AMD designed this download page poorly. But the fact that no other download is offered that's clearly marked as the actual driver, and the size of the CCC setup, lead me to believe the driver is already included.

    It's worth a try at any rate.

    Just go to the middle tab from the driver I suggested and try that one that should be the driver and The Catalyst control center
    It's like corazon said It's worth a try .
