Thunderbolt 2864 Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Yes, I did a forum search, it says you can use Windows XP drivers for W2K3, I tried it, didn't work.My video card is an ATI Radeon 9600 Pro. Is there any available drivers for W2K3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiMoNsAyS Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 ...but it works!drivers install without any issues on my w2k3 system, no further explanations, just install them or update the current driver with the one you extracted.(be sure to check if full hardware acceleration is enabled) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilifrei64 Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 My workstation that I am typing this from is a 2k3 server and I have a Radeon 9600 and this is the driver I used. https://support.ati.com/ics/support/default...ge&folderID=293it is the windows XP driver. Also make sure that you have .NET framework 1.1 SP1 installed.. only cause ATI says so. Even though that only counts towards the control center and not the driver installation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbolt 2864 Posted February 13, 2006 Author Share Posted February 13, 2006 (edited) When I tried to install the Windows XP driver under Windows 2003, it says it was missing some exe file. (Presumely some system file which only exists in XP/2000) And then the program automatically exits.Tried the Windows XP 64 bit driver. Though it did install, when I restarted the OS, my desktop graphics were lagging, and the Catalyst Control Center says the driver does not support this version of Windows. Don't know, but I'm kinda stuck.Anyway, thanks for trying to help me. Its not much of a big deal anyway.EDIT: Not a missing inf file, a missing file called Trunks.exe, I think.

boooggy Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 redownload the last one from here: https://support.ati.com/ics/support/default...ge&folderID=293 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilifrei64 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 also.. as opposed to running the install. go to device manager and update the driver.. tell it that you will select the best driver. choose have disk and browse to the extracted folder.. this may work for you.

Thunderbolt 2864 Posted February 14, 2006 Author Share Posted February 14, 2006 (edited) Tried that, still didn't work. In fact, it screwed up the video properties instead, can't fix it. Don't worry, I tried that before I read your post, so I'm not blaming you. I know 2003 is built for networking and business uses only, not for gaming. Why didn't ATI even bother releasing an official driver for 2003 anyway? If they did it for NT, why not this one? It was able to run games though when I tried it, some couldn't run it because it needed a newer driver.
