Google is your friend. (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=ati+drivers&aq=f&oq=&aqi=n1g10)

Typically the manufacturer's website (http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx) is the best place to start.

Exactly where you want to go.

Tried that. I get this message. "AMD has moved a number of DX9 ATI Radeon™ graphics accelerators products to a legacy driver support structure. This change impacts Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Linux distributions. AMD has moved to a legacy software support structure for these graphics accelerator products in an effort to better focus development resources on future products."


So? Where is this legacy driver support structure?

The last option on the first list on the linked site. 'Legacy' Windows ME/98

:smallconfused: Uh, I don't use windows ME or 98. I use XP. I use a Gateway Media Center Edition Desktop.

Scroll down that same page. They're not providing driver updates; you can still download the drivers.

But it says you need legacy. Give it a try, see if it works.

If you click on the download button for the 'Catalyst Software Suite' that should include the driver for your video adapter.
This would be the direct link. (https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/9-8_legacy_xp32-64_dd_ccc.exe)*

It looks to be the right driver, but if it isn't, then I apologise. If you're unsure of what driver you need to download, send a question to their support, and you'll probably get a reply from them directly.


*Any download made on the basis of this post is made at your own risk, and I will not be held responsible if you mess anything up in the installation of the driver. Again, if you're unsure about the link, send a request to AMD's support and ask them about it.
