My mistake.  Catalyst 13.4 Legacy Beta is indeed non-WHQL.  Catalyst 13.1 appears to be the pinnacle of driver support for at least some similar hardware.  Have included your specific driver though.

Acquired some eWaste that enabled confirmation of function with Cat13.1 on a "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series".

If you have Atheros WiFi, download the D-P-C Driver Latency Tester linked in my signature and compare with WiFi enabled versus disabled.  The results have been dramatic on every such card i have tested thusfar.  On the HD 4200 it added a lot of stutter to my graphics tests.

Noting that powerxpresshybrid seems to lack a certain xml file.

That is a very limited pack.  A search of *.Inf 's by HWID (ie:  NEC67C0) should provide a simple "go/no go" answer.
I hope W7 allows that type of search.  If not, File Locator Lite (for corporate use) or Agent Ransack may be of assistance.

If you can provide a specific example or two of included HWID's that do not work, perhaps i can look into it in more depth.

Bigfoot seems to be handling the NT6 arena.
  I am not one to step on anybody's toes.

My priority for now is to ensure the NT5 branch is concluded in respect to mr_smartepants, without whom the NT5 driverpacks would likely still be stuck in 2008-2010.  Thanks again, Mr. 'Pants!

Who knows what the future will bring though?  Hopefully a Retail License for 7 & 8!

It is on this page under "Latest Beta Driver"--> http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/w … iw-xp.aspx

On second thought, if all they have listed for changes is for one game and if Catalyst 13.1 didn't work for you previously, what would this driver do that previous drivers couldn't?

I have no answers as of yet, though am indeed intrigued, but in no rush.  Haste makes eWaste.    hmm

It contains the generic HWID PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_9591 listed for
"ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650" among many other Legacy Mobility devices.

AMD9713.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon 4100"
AMD94C9.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400"
AMD94C8.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400 XT"
AMD9581.3 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600"
AMD9583.2 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 XT"
AMD95C4.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series"
AMD95C2.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3430"
AMD9591.3 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650"
AMD9593.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3670"
AMD9504.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3850"
AMD9506.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3850 X2"
AMD9508.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3870"
AMD9509.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3870 X2"
AMD9712.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series"
AMD9552.9 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4300 Series"
AMD9555.4 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4300/4500 Series"
AMD9553.2 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4500/5100 Series"
AMD9480.2 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650"
AMD9488.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4670"
AMD94A0.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4830"
AMD944A.9 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4850"
AMD94A1.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4860"
AMD945A.1 = "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4870"

There has been some confusion as to whether or not it is in fact WHQL'ed though.
It appears to be.  Can you confirm or deny please, if possible?
  Bear in mind lenovo's procedure for proper switching should you attempt this.

To check proper file copy, run "dxdiag" and "Save All Information" to produce a report.
I am only concerned with two sections.  One being listed under "Display Devices" concerning "WHQL Logo'd:", the other concerning the files for any Display Devices.

For example:

If it is not WHQL'ed as i have been told, it is possible that some files may end up copied from Driver.cab or SP3.cab.  A restart may be necessary for proper confirmation.

I do hope any issue with video playback has been finally resolved.
Additionally, GPU Caps Viewer by Geeks3D has been instrumental in diagnosing OpenGL, OpenCL, and CUDA issues.
   Avoid the "Stability" or "Burner" tests!


Thank you for any feedback.  I look forward to properly crediting you in any changelogs, etc should you assist with testing this and/or any of the upcoming Graphics Nightlies which you will soon find in the Testing Forum.

The following WHQL'ed {DriverVer=01/21/2013, 1.0.38.129}
includes drivers for Alcor Micro USB CardReaders from XP to w8.

The XP driver is included in DP_Misc_wnt5_x86-32_1307171.7z
  As per directives, there is no included icon support.

Additionally, I note that it does not allow SDHC to work on older cardreaders AFIK.

I thank you for your feedback Ra.

What of Catalyst 13.4 Legacy - Beta (linked above)?  That was released only 3 months ago.
In what way was video playback broken?

I'm "flying blind" here.  I need more people to "be my eyes" so to speak.


edit:  Noting that only one XP compatible package, out of perhaps 2 dozen or so, have PowerXpressHybrid.msi included for Catalyst Control Center.  I will enable that for CX105152.inf (8.771-100825a-105152C-Lenovo.2) for testing in an upcoming pack to be made available to the Testing Team.

Read this document for procedures on how to enable Switchable Graphics to work with XP in a limited manner.

Efforting to include driver from here --> http://support.lenovo.com/en_CA/downloa … MIGR-70366
to ensure WHQL status.

It would also appear that the general HWID PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_9591 exists in
Catalyst 13.4 Legacy - Beta; also for "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650"


If you try either driver, please inform us of your results.

Revamped Qualcomm/Atheros support, including AR5xxx-AR9xxx {DriverVer = 05/23/2013,10.0.0.251}
and AR701x & AR9271 (USB)  {DriverVer = 10/12/2011,7.7.0.104} which includes support for Panasonic UB94, Sony UWA-BR100, Ubiquiti WifiStation, and the Xbox360 Wireless N adapters.

  There has also been a little "addition by subtraction" with the removal of a D-Link driver & a TP-Link driver.

Also updated is support for AR9170 USB adapters including Ovislink adapters.  {DriverVer = 12/21/2010,3.0.0.174}
The legacy AR5523 series is now supported by {DriverVer = 01/21/2007,1.5.0.119}

In addition, the RaLink added support files Rt2500x.inf, rt25NWusb.inf and rt6x.inf have had their references to their  respective Security Catalogs commented out to prevent err.

Even still; it is his work, he should protect his rights.  It isn't hard either.
  GitHub has setup a page to specifically deal with the issue.

... updated lenovo power management driver & HP Hotkey Buttons keyboard driver.

The newly linked HP driver is the same version, yet the CPQBTTN.sys is different from what was in the pack previously.  They were both Digitally Signed Feb 24, 2010 @ 5:02:54 PM, yet the file sizes and sha1 hashes differ.  Therefore, the updated driver may be non-WHQL.

The KbdFilter driver included in sp59346 needs to be included in DP_HID_wnt5_x86-32.
  Submit a request in an appropriate topic please Ra.
   It is doubtful that i will be working that pack.

The cutting of path-length championed by mr_smartepants has been continued here.
Also included are three new drivers previously requested by Ra, whom i am certain will communicate how well this works out.

I do not see any WebCam driver in that package, nor the one listed by SamLab.
       That only had an effects filter driver.  The only valid drivers are the ones posted by Ra.
        MS Update Catalog has not been forthcoming either.

edit:  it could be that the package for the MS Cams might download the files required from the internet.
          ""LifeCam3.60\setupstb.exe" /SETUPMODE UI /SOURCELOCATION WEB"

I will do what i can to continue mr_smartepants' work to mitigate path-length of WebCam 11.07.

Finally.
  Managed to get around to restoring the HWID's lost when the few included Vista drivers were removed back in May.
In fact, HWID support has been expanded for Acer, Gateway, and perhaps Packard Bell product.

... and exported the Apple network driver to DP_Phone, same with the Toshiba 3G driver & Android drivers.
also exported the incomplete Toshiba Bluetooth drivers to DP_Bluetooth, as they interfere with the MS BT class installation.
