XP 64 patchscript for new 8.453.1 driver

[maxtorag]

Well, the recognition should not be a problem...
I have switched the primary and secondary monitor just in the CCC extended desktop settings so now it corresponds to actual DVI configuration and I haven't had a problem since then. But it could be also because I haven't had a corruption of displays before quitting windows which I avoided by shutting down the hole Win, not only Maya, after I was finished, plus most usually, I use StandBy mode, and maya is constantly running So I cannot say whether the switching made any difference regarding the startup and "recognition".

[maxpoz]

Sorry but my english is very small, the second part of message it's too hard to translate and google don't help me.

In windows you have not any problem,
you use maya, but the proble is when the pc start the standby mode?

[maxtorag]

no, the thing is:
I don't have any problem in WIN, when I shut down the whole win, not only maya.
And I usually don't shut down, I just put it to standby mode with maya constantly running, thus I don't have any problems at all

[schoko]

well, that is at least some kind of "workaround".

i do hope ati does fix that problem soon. btw, i have given a maya introduction to some students a few days ago, and at least with the beamer i used i did not have these problems.

[NormanBates]

I also have had the "sticky time slider" bug for ages, but it never really bothered me, at least not nearly as much as selection-bug and ex-selection-lag

I don't get corruption; maybe it's because I don't use CCC: I never upgraded the old-and-not-cool driver tools that came with the first unmodded drivers I installed (I don't like .NET or the CCC, I don't intend to use them unless I can't do without them)

[schoko]

hmm, that is interesting.

so it seems it´s a bug in CCC ? not the driver itself ?
well if thats the case, i guess there are some registry values to play around with. i´ll take a look at the registry then to see if there could be some bugs.

well, since you do not have the bug, maybe we can compare the registry settings then.

Do you mean the ATI CP with modified aticdxx.dat? Because when I first reinstalled the drivers, it did not show me the advanced settings. That's why I switched (not gladly ) to CCC. Well, I should then try to do a clean ATI install with ATI CP from previous driver and see. Will post the results (but I am afraid not sooner than in 2 days). If schoko finds out any solution meanwhile...

[NormanBates]

I have ATI CP with no mods or add-ons, so I don't see many options, and certainly not many pro options, but the card is working with firegl performance, and I didn't intend to mess with the options anyway

[NormanBates]

Hi

I said it on a different thread, but it may be worth repeating here, to avoid you doing some unproductive work...

as the drivers are working much better now, I updated my HD2600XT to a HD3870... and I see those secondary monitor artifacts now

(I still use my old ATI CP with no mods)

[maxtorag]

@NormanBates:
glad to see you are also among us....just kidding. But so far I have successfully avoided all corruptions with some workarounds I mentioned earlier...
So no biggie.
What did you mod you 3870 with? (some link to thread?) and how is it working? Is it much better (= worth updating) than 2900XT (I doubt that, but still...)

[NormanBates]

I think the patchscript you're using could be modified to work on a 3870

you have to follow instructions by schoko on how to add new deviceIDs to the patchscript; some users are bothering schoko because they can't get it working, but I found it to be a quite simple procedure

that's what I did with the 32bit patchscript:
http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=261172

on that thread you can find details about the performance I'm getting from this new card; I don't think you'll get better performance than with an HD2900XT, but it's definitely more convenient (smaller card, way less heat, and in my case total silence thanks to passive cooling)

[Samiam]

Will this work on 19xx series or only 2xxx series? How does one modify a script to support another series? Is it simply a matter of pasting in new card deviceIDs?

Could I paste some part of another script into this one to get different deviceIDs? Maybe the part in red, or red and green? The blue part is unique to each driver and is the actual hack, correct?

Thanks
