    Hey ya. This will fix it right up for you.

    Download this driver and extract it to C:\ATI

    Then go to the device manager and right click on the video card (standard vga.)

    Update driver software. Browse my computer. Let me pick. Have disk. Browse. Now navigate to inside C:\ATI to where the .inf file is and double click on it. Click ok then click next and let it install.

    Their is no .inf file in C:\ATI
    It goes C:\ATI\Support
    then their is 3 more folders
    9-11_legacy_vista32-64_dd_ccc
    9-11_legacy_vista32-64_wdm
    9-11_vista64_win7_64_dd_ccc_wdm_enu
    and theirs no .inf file in any of those folders. Not sure whats going on here


    I acually have a radeon 7500 not 9500 and their is no drivers for the 7500.

    Go to C:\ATI in Windows Explorer and in the top right, search for *.inf

    You gave to be able to see hidden and system files first.

    The CL_89303.inf location is at

    C:\ATI\Support\9-11_legacy_vista32-64_dd_ccc\Packages\Drivers\Display\LH_INF

    You have to do it exactly like this:

    Then go to the device manager and right click on the video card (standard vga.)

    Update driver software. Browse my computer. Let me pick. Have disk. Browse. Now navigate to

    C:\ATI\Support\9-11_legacy_vista32-64_dd_ccc\Packages\Drivers\Display\LH_INF and double click on CL_89303.inf.

    Click ok then click next and let it install.

    Ok I have to bump this thread again, I have re formated my computer and cannot get the drivers to work. Now when i navigate to CL_89303.inf it shows me a list of all the radeon video cards and I have to pick one in order to click next. My video card is not listed as I have a 7500. Before when I did this this list never came up. I tried clicking the 9500 and it doesn't work. Any help?

    Ohh...yeah the 7500 is not supported at all on 7 or Vista. Too old by a large margin.
