ATI + AB = WTH BBQ [Solved]
 

Can't seem to get MSI Afterburner to work for the ATI GPUs. Keep getting "Failed to initialize display driver wrapper" error. I've reflashed the OS and reinstalled drivers a couple of times before installing AB and am still getting the same error. Had no such trouble with the Nvidia GPUS, AB and Rivatuner worked just fine.

OS: TinyXP Rev9
MOBO: Tpower i45
CPU: e8500
GPU: 5870 & 4870
Display Drivers: Tried 10.3, 10.4, 10.11, 10.12
Chipset Drivers: 9.1.1.1020
MSI Afterburner Version: 2.0.0

WTF am I doing wrong?

Looks like I needed Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 installed. Duhhhh.........:Dizzy:

OCM :thumbsup:

Try older AB and see if that helps? maybe 1.51 or older.

Oh did you image your OS's with nvidia cards/drivers installed? Just shooting from the hip here....

No, imaged without display drivers. Gonna try an older version of AB once I get home from work.

Thanks,
OCM :thumbsup:

try installing the display driver...

:rofl If OCM is trying to run AB with no display drivers installed then he owes us a livestream in his undies. :D

LOL. Display Drivers are installed and reboot before installing AB. Home now, time to figure this thing out.

OCM :thumbsup:

i dont wanna see that :blink:... but idk about you after the other thing you said :taunt: :laughing:

Good deal. Make sure to let us know the fix in case one of us run into the same problem. :thumbsup:

lmao My name isn't Splave so that kind of stuff isn't my cup of tea. :laughing: I would be sure to link the feed up on hwbot for maximum humiliation. :taunt:

Just ran through all AB versions to no avail. Also tried ATITool 0.26 and still no worky worky.
