Any one got ATI Radeon - X1250 driver(XP ver) for this HP Pavilion dv2-1014AV?

[ Edited ]

I recently bought this model: Pavilion dv2-1014AV , but I realy hate Win Vista, so downgraded to Win XP, but HP doesn't provide the display driver for Win XP

 

I go thru http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=3977897&lc=en&cc=sg&dlc=en&submit.y=8&su...

 

can't find.

 

Any one can help?

i just reformat my laptop, but this method doesn't work anymore.

I'm wonder what's going on?

 

my laptop now keep reboot again and again until i came to this "safe mode", I remove the ATI driver, now my windows XP get back to normal, but display driver still missing. 

 

I'm wonder what happening?

 

Tried this method for almost 3 hours, but still can't make it.

Do You remember about installing .Net framework first?

I found this method: 

 

1st step ~ install the Display Driver

https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/9-3_xp32_dd.exe

 

 

2nd step ~ install the Catalyst Control Center

https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/9-3_xp32-64_ccc_lang1.exe

 

 

Working smoothly :smileyhappy:

In this link which I posted before there are now 9.7 drivers released on 7/23/2009. So they are newer then this which You downloaded before.

 

Last time Your were installing from this link 9.6 or 9.5 version.

Last time before I installed 9.7 drivers, tried lot of different ver drivers, forgot which ver already, but end up working fine.

 

After format, try the latest 9.7 again, can't make it, so try the lower ver, working well.
