Re: ATI Radeon 3450 Graphics Driver XP

Hi,
Are you trying to install the catalyst software or just the Display Driver?
http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_ca...p/radeonxip-xp

Or this one:
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/win/163216

You may need to modify the driver using this:

Hi,
The Mobility Modifier will allow you to install the XP ATI driver when it errors during normal installation.
It will modify the driver to install it on your Dell.

Let me know how you make out.

Hi,
Glad to heat you have it up and running.
The link I provided *Mobility Modifier* from driverheaven is a great tool:

I just wished I thought of it.
Thank You "DriverHeaven"

Thanks,
Bill
