Where's Catalyst Control Centre?

[vStone1K]

Hey everyone, I noticed that my previous ATI drivers seemed to be outdated a little bit, and so decided to try to update them. I've currently got the AMD Vision Engine Control Centre, which is version 12.2, but where can I download an updated version of Catalyst Control Centre? The CCC version for that was something like 8.72. But now, I don't have Catalyst Control Centre anymore! Where can I get it? Hope you can help! :/

http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload here you go choose your card and download the lasted drivers for it

@GianniDPC Hmmm, it's not letting me install it, see View attachment 200325
I think my Toshiba laptop has it's own modified driver, because the driver at Toshiba says (for supported model only). But I don't want to get that driver because it's an old version, from 2010!
Here's the Toshiba page with the outdated driver, it's called AMD Display driver:http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/l650d/psk1sa-061014/download?os=25

Can you go back with a restore point before you installed the new driver ?

I won't, because the restore points just had the old driver, which is the version 8.712.2.1. Shouldn't there be a version which is a bit more recent for my model?

Uninstall your ati drivers ! then go into safe mode (F8 while booting) and run Driver Sweeper: Phyxion.net - Driver Sweeper and remove all remaining ATI driver files with it

Then try to update your drivers from ati again

AND ohh... I did see your updated your post yes it can be that your driver must be modified.

@GianniDPC I did that earlier, which then I installed this driver which is a more recent version but is missing CCC.

that's weird if you install the lasted ati driver you should have the ATI Catalyst control center. Did you tried to choose 'Advanced' ? and make sure you select the 'Ati Control Center'

I know! I'll get the driver and show you what it lets me install. It'll take a few minutes

OK, I found the page with the driver (That doesn't include CCC). ATI Radeon
It's the Catalyst Software Suite. But it says it includes Catalyst Control Centre, but when I run the installer, it doesn't list it in the install manager.View attachment 200327

Try this driver: ATI Catalyst

@gianniDPC Nope, doesn't work! I get the same 'not compatible' error

 

[GianniDPC]

@gianniDPC Nope, doesn't work! I get the same 'not compatible' error

shit >.< But I saw on forums that the ATI driver isn't compatible and that you have the use the ATI driver from the Toshiba site. as you saw on the driver page:

The following notebooks are not compatible with this tool:
Notebooks equipped with switchable graphics
Toshiba® notebooks
Sony® VAIO® notebooks
Panasonic® notebooks

That's the issue, the driver on the Toshiba site is outdated, isn't it? I mean, it's from 2010. Shouldn't it be a driver from 2012? Like the rest of them?

Blame Toshiba xD, But I'll try to search a modified driver ...

@GianniDPC I hope you find one! I'll give you heaps of reps!

This Toshiba page has the same AMD driver, but it's even older:Model Content Page
Why would they not update that specific driver?

 

[GianniDPC]

Try this one Download AMD Catalyst Drivers 12.1 Vista 64 - FileHippo.com

 

[GianniDPC]

Found something ! :Updating AMD/ATI Graphics Driver on Toshiba, Sony, or Lenovo Laptops To Newest Version - YouTube

Do what the guy says in the video but use this download: ATI Catalyst

(Not the one from the discription)

I really hope this works :/

 

[vStone1K]

OK, so I downloaded your driver, and it says that 'all components are up to date'View attachment 200335 and there's no Catalyst Control Centre in the install menu View attachment 200336
(Oh wait, I just noticed your YT link)
