ATI Mobility Radeon 4530 driver for XP?

April 14, 2009 12:33 PM

Down (up) grading a new HP DV7T-2000 to XP. The video card is an ATI Mobility Radeon 4530. I have had no luck in finding an XP driver. Does anyone have any experience with this card and have any ideas about a possible driver or workaround?

Not sure if this will work for you, but have you checked out the Omega ATI Radeon drivers?

Have u tried instructions from this thread? There is a link to Mobility Catalyst drivers, as well as a workaround to get a driver installed.

You may be SOL on the Omega drivers... I don't think they've been updated for the HD 4xxx series GPUs yet.

You might try the DNA-ATI drivers. They have support for SOME of the mobility 4xxx series chips in there, though I can't tell if yours is one of them.

Failing that, look at Driver Heaven's forum on the radeon mobility line. I didn't see anything about your particular card there, but asking there won't hurt, I'm sure.

Good luck.

Response by poster: No luck on the DNA-ATI drivers.. I went to the Driver Heavens site.. but I have to look.. I don't remember if I was able to get anything off of there..

I also tried Mobility Modder to no avail...

Per this thread on the DNA forums, they may be able to add the deviceID for your laptop's card to the next build, if that's what's keeping it from working.
