ATI R-9000 not recognized on Win7
Firstly, I apologize in advance if this has been posted elsewhere before, and I did not notice it. I've been searching the net for a solution to my problem to no avail, and after stumbling upon this website and noticing the great support and knowledge here, I was hoping to find my answer.
I currently did a small overhaul of my desktop and threw an ATI Radeon 9000 PCI 256MB DDR graphics card into it. I did a format of my HDD and a fresh install of Windows 7. The problem I am getting is that Windows does not recognize my card, and is telling me I have the standard VGA adapter. From what I have gathered, this card must not officially be supported by Windows 7, and I have had no success with looking for and finding proper drivers.
I was wondering if anyone else happens to have the same card and issues, or at least has any good advice on how I can remedy and or get around this problem. Am I missing the drivers somewhere, or perhaps an older Vista/XP driver may work?
Thanks for any helpful responses.
