How To Specify Proper Video Driver?

[Minus]

Hello,

I would like to thank in advance any responses I receive to this thread.

I am currently running an ATI video card. My problem, however, is that I am unaware of the specific model and make. I made the mistake of inadvertently uninstalling my driver, and I do not know how to locate the specific driver I need.

My current symptoms include an inability to run games and very choppy scrolling in browsers and text documents.

If anyone could help me at all, then I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you.

Download and run Everest Home (it is free):

http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4181

Once you download it, click on it and let it install and then run it from the icon on your desktop and then click on 'Display' then on 'GPU', then go to the VERY top of the screen and click on 'report', then 'quick report-gpu' and then 'plain text' and save it then go to C:/programs/lavalys and open that folder then open Everest Home folder and then reports and click on the report which will open it in a text editor and then use your mouse to highlight ALL the 'registers' stuff at the bottom of the report and delete it and then save that file again and then copy and paste it to here.

Thank you for your help.

I'm a little confused about which section of the text document you want me to delete, however.

What part of the 'registers' did you miss - like all that crap at the bottom.

The only thing I deleted was "[ Debug - PCI ]" and downward.

All information in the registers was untouched.

Example of deleted information:

Well, you got your answer anyway: PCI Express x16: ATI Radeon X300 (RV370)


'
ATI GPU Registers:'

from that line down is meaningless - that crap is what I meant to get rid of.

 

[Minus]

The problem has been resolved.

Thank you very, very much for your help.

Keep up the good work!
