Confusion with graphics card driver software
Hi there,
firstly excuse me since I'm not much knowledgeable about these stuffs
I use a Hp laptop and it has ATI Mobility Radeon 4500 series. Few months ago I had hardware problem with my laptop. So took it to a repair shop and then they fixed it (they said that there was problem with the BIOS and RAM) and re-installed the windows for me.
Now that I tried to play some games I'm having problem. Like once I was getting Opengl error. I searched over the internet for solution and one said to update the driver software. So I opened the device manager and saw under the Display Adapter it is shown ATI Mobility Radeon 4500 series (Windows Corporation WDDM 1.1). Now I don't think I have the proper driver software and that I should get one, probably I'll download it from the AMD website. So am I correct? And before installing the new driver software, do I need to do anything with the WDDM 1.1 or do I just install the software, keeping everything as they are? Is there any possibility of problem occurring if I do the later one?
btw, my RAM is 2GB, processor is Intel Core2 Duo @2.4GHz and I use Windows 7 32-bit
hope I was able to clarify my problem
thank you :)
