ATI Mobility Modder
If you have an ATI graphics chip in your laptop or Mac, I definitely recommend you take a look at Mobility Modder from Driver Heaven (since renamed to Hardware Heaven).
Apparently, most laptop manufacturers (OEMs) want control over the graphics card drivers you can install. This means that the latest ATI drivers, cannot be installed. As graphics card drivers typically get more stable the newer they are, you are left running some crappy old version the OEM provides. Sadly the truth is that the latest drivers do technically support your laptops chip, just ATI don’t have permission to let you install it!
I was having some issues with my graphics on my iMac, running Windows 7 via BootCamp. The drivers I had were dated around summer of last year. On the ATI website, you can download drivers for BootCamp, but these are the same old ones I already had. In fact it refers to the drivers being for Windows 7 Beta!
Enter Mobility Modder. It is a simple program that modifies the latest ATI driver package, enabling you to install it on you laptop/Mac running BootCamp. I have tried this and it worked perfectly. I now have what I call the “standard” ATI drivers, i.e. the latest version.
Gladly my graphics problems have yet to re-occur. Even if they do, I can at least know that the latest drivers didn’t fix it, something I would never know had I still been tied to the OEM version.
Check out Mobility Modder at the Hardware Heaven site now.
