This is due to be released. Also, ATITool has a bug where it does not install correctly, the fix is below. Also, my 8400 has a tendency to downclock when running without overclocking because the temp censor is wrong, I had to set 2d, low power 3d and high power 3d to normal settings to fix this, but only atitool does this, rivatuner will not allow the full range on 2d causing my computer to slow down badly every now and then.
anyhow, here's the fix:
ATITool would not run correctly in Vista 64 but I have finally fixed it:
FIXED, I figured out what to change to get ATITool 100% functional in Vista 64.
1) We know about the certification thing, I'm doing my method of test certifying and then removing the test watermarks. That problem solved, though ATITool is to have it's own cert in the next release, thank you =)
My driver cert method:

2) I have been having to disable and re-enable the atitool driver in the device manager about 10-20 times, resulting in some crashes. I fixed this finally by going into regedit and changing this key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\ATITool]
"Start"=dword:00000003
I changed to
"Start"=dword:00000000
I've tried this multiple times, if start is 1,2,3, or 4, ATITool will "kernel mode driver does not seem to be running" about 95% of the time; at 0 it will load 100% of the time!!!
Congrats! With this fix this is now 100% vista 64 capable! It also beats out rivatuner because you don't have 2d limits. Since my card thinks it runs at 105 degrees constantly, it always downclocks, but problem solved.
