So I closed the ATI app and ran System Preferences Monitors. Configuring more than one desktop in Display Manager will allow you to configure Xinerama When I invoked the ATI Catalyst gui and selected "Display Options" I received a message You currently have only one desktop enabled. I rebooted to get a clean start of things.
I ran the run file (as root) and the thing seemed to install OK. I downloaded the appropriate driver ati-driver-installer-11-6-x86.x86_64.run from the vendor's web site.
Windows 10 Pro - Start10 - part of a local network which is a '3rd party optimizer-free' zone.Starting with a fresh install of CentOS 6 - 64 bit with all current updates I decided to try and install the ATI driver so I could configure my dual monitors. Do yourself a favour and uninstall whatever you are using, because it will only draw problems to you. If your computer is running well on the presently installed drivers, it isn't unhealthy at all. Why is there no driver update for revisions A and B? Because they were dropped like a hot potato by D-Link and replaced by revision C adapters in quite a short space of time. If your G520 is revision A or B and the latest driver is for revision C, the update will fail, your adapter will get cobbled, and you will have to roll back to the previous driver. So, if the driver finder is allowed to strut its stuff, what will happen?
Unfortunately, there are THREE revisions of the G520, and D-Link had seperate drivers for all of them.
The driver finder tells you that the driver for a D-Link G520 PCI wireless card is old, and that there is a later driver available. Virtually the only exception to the rule is network adapters where you can go to the network adapter manufactuer website for updates.Īn example of why driver finders should not be used. If updated drivers are not available from the computer manufacturer, that's it. You have a laptop, and they tend to be proprietory. or if you can infact direct me to where I can find a moreĭo not install and run driver finders. and I'm wondering if you can take a look and advice me on which ones I can download for these drivers I've listed here. Intel(R)HM55 Express Chipset LPC Interface Controller-3B09īelow is the link to the Acer download page where these drivers are listed. Intel(5)Series / 3400 Series Chipset Family SMBus Controller -3B30 Inte(R)5 Series / 3400 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 2-3B44 Intel(R)5 Series / 3400 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 1-3B42 Intel(R)5 Series 4 Port SATA AHCI Controller Listed below are the drivers on my system that are apperently too old: Problem is, I can't identify them positively , hence my reason for calling for help. There are a couple more that I think I can download.
They have a more recent version which is 6. I was able to positively identify the Realtek High Definition Audio Driver update.the original on my system was ver. I decided to check Acer's website for new updates and they do infact have a couple of more recent drivers on their download page. I tried using "Device Manager" to check for updates but I kept getting "Driver up to date" for just about all of them. It turns out, 10 of my "drivers" are "too old" and that's the reading from the log file at the end of the scan. A couple of days ago, I decided to run a scan on the "system drivers" and the result wasn't exactly healthy. I have an "Acer Aspire 4741 圆4 Notebook with Intel Core i3" with a "Windows 7 Home Premium" platform.
