thanks commodore, its just the only display
drivers that are on my machine are the intel ones that come with the asrock z68 pro3 by default. I have tried uninstalling them but will try again to see if the catalyst suite is recognized.
I think I have to turn off automatic updates too because when I restart it just re-installs the intel graphics. When i unistall them aswell,,it gives me the option to delete ut im a bit sceptical about doing this.
so to clarify then, i dont think that would be a solution. does that program have full features as a trial?
