Download driver cleaner pro from here:

http://www.driverhea...ead.php?t=76416

Install it.

Download the latest OMEGA drivers for your video card here:

http://www.omegadrivers.net/

(you could also load the newest drivers from ati.com--I just find the Omega drivers to be a little more stable)

Start > Control Panel, choose add/remove applet

Remove any drivers or utlities for your card.

Reboot into safe mode, by tapping f8 key at startup, about once a second...you will be given a text mode menu....choose safe mode

Run driver cleaner pro and select the video driver you had from the drop down menu and let driver cleaner wipe out all the remaining files from the uninstall.

reboot into normal mode...cancel the hardware installation wizard.

Use the driver setup routine you downloaded above to reinstall the driver.
