    getting error with driver installation

    so i made previously thread bout my problems with gf 6600 gt and after getting no help i decided to set back my old radeon 9200, now when i try to install that driver's for it, it erros me that "i need to install vga drivers" first, wich leave's me thinking what exactly does it want me to do?

    as my self im not the expert of computers im not sure what "vga drivers" refers into, and i did check the ati's site about how to solve it and as it can be quessed, it doesnt work.

    i dont have display part on system management at all where it would be, it states it should be then on "others" tab, yet it isnt there either.


    so, is there way to update / install vga drivers any other way?

    You could always try windows update, click on advanced mode, wait and then onto hardware updates, and see if it can find you the right update.

    Did you uninstall the Nvidia drivers, before trying to install the ATI drivers?
