Have done a successful clean installation of Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit on my ASUS notebook computer.  It works perfectly.

 

Windows 7 contains the necessary drivers in itself.  You don’t need to install the drivers.  When the installation of Windows 7 is completed, use Windows Update to get the latest drivers.

 

Also, install the following Windows 7 drivers and utilities.  Everything will work properly.

 

ATK0100 ACPI Driver

ATK_MEDIA Utility

ATK_Hotkey Utility

ASUS ATKOSD2 Utility

ATK Generic Function Utility

ASUS Wireless Switch (Wireless Console3) Utility

Life Frame Utility

Power4 Gear Hybrid Utility

ASUS Splendid Video Enhancement Technology

Keyboard Device Filter Utility

Good luck!!

Thanks for your response
but i would like to inform you that my Notebook model is X50RL and it works with Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit not 64-bit.
also the link you gave me was for K50IN not x50rl.
the problem here is there is no drivers for W7 for this model x50rl

Although the drivers and utilities listed in my post of 11/2/2009 are for K50IN, they are also compatible with your X50RL.

 

Just go ahead and install them, and you will feel surprised that they work so well.

 

Cheers!!

Hi all!

I've got a problem with my notebook so I thought I could get good help here at Asus forum.

So, I have an Asus X50RL notebook which came with Windows Vista installed. A few days ago I've decided to move into Win 7.
Everything seems to be working pretty good except for the graphic card (ATI X1100) that crashes the system from time to time (BSOD).
I first started with Windows Update's drivers (v8.56.something_else), then I've downgraded to v8.4 provided on Asus webpage (only after deleting v8.56 carefully and with Driver Sweeper) but specified for Vista, not for 7, although they installed ok. Still getting BSO.
After digging a bit through the Internet I saw people mentioning they've managed to install ATI Catalyst 10.2 Legacy with the help of a program called Mobility Modder, which I did also do but again, with no joy.
Windows always reports that these BSODs are connected with the file "atikmdag.sys". Some say it's somehow related to Catalyst Control Centre but I don't even have it installed.
Made a separate Vista installation and it's all ok, and I can say it with any doubt because by doing Windows' System Classification test it would always BSOD under Windows 7. Under Vista no problem at all.

Do someone know anything that could help me? I can provide .dmp files of the crashes.

Many thanks in advance!
