Can't Update ATI Drivers

    Google'd this, got some advise, no luck. Here's what I've tried so far...

    Got new drivers from AMD. Installed them. It said everything installed successfully.
    Drivers are still 2009, and the Cat Control Centre is nowhere to be seen.
    Uninstalled everything, rebooted in safe mode, used driver cleaner to wipe everything.
    Restarted, Windows no longer recognises my card.
    Installed new drivers again. Once again I'm told everything installed correctly, but Windows still doesn't recognise my card.

    I eventually managed to get Windows to recognise my card by installing it through Control Panel, but I'm back to my old 2009 drivers. Tried some old ATI drivers from earlier in the year and the same results.

    Any advice?

    What OS you running? XP?

    Most likely its to do with the damn .net framework

    You prob need the .net framework 3.5 on your system and if the install gets messed, hell even if it doesn't then catalyst drivers don't "seem" to install etc


    Your best bet is to keep trying with the ATI forums, esp try to remove the ATI folders and reinstall the drivers until they "stay".

    I have 2 pcs that I have given up on this, the PC's are running fine, but they refuse to accept the ATI cata drivers and won't run the Catalyst control centre
