    Hi again.

    I just installed the driver. When installing the legacy driver, it seems that my actual GPU (X2300) is not supported, so it would say that it finished installing, but in Device Manager it would show that actually there is no present driver for it. So what I did was in Device Manager use the Have Disk option, and selected the X1300 series (as you said that the X2300 is just a renamed X1350), and it managed to install and works fine. Is there any consequences to doing this, making it think that I am using a different GPU than what actually is present?

    Won't hurt anything. main thing is the driver is installed and appears to be working properly, or as proper as an unsupported driver with an unsupported video card can be expected too.

    Ok thanks man. Stupid AMD phasing out GPU's so early, NVIDIA give their GPU's a much longer life, they even still support the 7xxx series.

    Hello Blackleg, welcome to Seven Forums.

    You can't output a resolution greater than what your display supports. Updated GPU drivers allow the GPU to work better and more efficiently, and may increase compatibility with a certain OS or application, and also may introduce new features.
