| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Weird Graphics card error Hi Ben, See if uninstalling the video driver and and reinstalling them can help. Are you using the latest 32-bit 8.11 version from: Drivers & Tools | GAME.AMD.COM |

| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Weird Graphics card error Step 8 down in this tutorial will help show you how to attach the image you uploaded to your post. This new driver version just may not work with your setup for whatever reason. You might see if rolling back to your previous Display Adapter driver version will work better for you instead. |

| Windows Vista™ Home Premium | Re: Weird Graphics card error I already checked for the rollback optition and i wasnt able to. The optition is greyed out. I dont understand this. I am trying to update driver software but it fails. Do you think that the original software might be corrupte?

| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Weird Graphics card error Could be Ben. I would redownload the drivers directly from ATI's website and try again. If they do not work, then I would stick with the older driver version until the next new version comes out that will hopefully work better for you. |

| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Weird Graphics card error I would recommend that you get them directly from ATI's website instead. You just never know what you get from a 3rd party. This is the link for the drivers for the card in your specs. Drivers & Tools | GAME.AMD.COM |

| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Weird Graphics card error Normally it's a good idea to look at the release notes on the driver to see what improvements or updates have been made with the new drive version. If it fixes a problem or helps to improve performance for you, then it would be a good reason to install the new driver version. However, I have always found it best to have the latest driver version installed of ot doesn't cause a problem for you. If it does, then just go back to the older version and wait to see what the next new driver version has in store with it. Hope this helps, Shawn |
