more info

for thenobodies....

ati catalyst 7.6 won't support your 9250....the last catalyst that support your card is catalyst 6.11....

u can double check at ati.amd website......

latest catalyst only support from 9500 to the current chips...

I personally believe that the newer official drivers would have some advantages over the old. I therefore would updgrade whenever they are released. So far, I have gone from 7.4 to 7.5. Tonight I will do the 7.6. No issue have I encountered before.

I think it is important to remove the old ati drivers as per their recommendation before installing :

http://support.ati.com/ics/support/default...uestionID=20870

Removing Old ATI Software

1. Click on Start, then Control Panel, then go to Add/Remove Programs.
2. At the top of the list you should see several ATI entries. Select the entry entitled ATI Software Uninstall Utility, and click Change/Remove.
3. You will be prompted to restart your system once the uninstall is complete.
4. Once restarted, check the Add/Remove Programs list again for any remaining ATI software.
5. If any ATI software is still listed, click Change/Remove on those entries to uninstall each one individually.
6. Next, please scroll through the list until you find an entry called DAO (see screenshot below).
7. Select DAO, then Click Change/Remove to uninstall this program.
