Hello, I have a toshiba satellite a300 PSAGCC-06H019 that i've recently installed windows 7 RC 7100 on. I upgraded from vista home premium x64 to 32 bit windows 7 and couldn't get CCC to install. (normally the WDDM Microsoft drivers would be okay, but I am connecting my computer to my TV and I need CCC to stretch the picture and eliminate the black border around my TV.

I couldn't get that to work, so I did a fresh install of RC 7100 x64 and I still have the same problems.

I manually installed the ATI 9.5 drivers, but there is no CCC in the start menu or on my C drive.

When I try using the catalyst installer, it goes really fast, and says it was installed properly but there is nothing on my system other than the folders that the installer extracts to start installation (c:/ati/), and windows tells me to reinstall it with recommended settings. When I do THAT, it gets to about 60% and hangs, with my cpu usage hovering at around 50%.

please don't make me go back to vista!

Intel Centrino t5800 2.0ghz
ATI Radeon mobility 3470

Solution
Boot to safe mode + networking. Download Driver Sweeper from guru3d.com. Use it to clear both the ATI and NVIDIA drivers/settings/software for video.

Reboot and install the latest chipset and video drivers for your motherboard, from the manufacturer's site.
Thanks.. I see your board is relatively new although do you have all the bios updates? I checked the gigabyte site and it seems there are a few..
