Still no joy guys if any one has any ideas id be really gratfull :)
when you right lick the driver (exe?) and goto properties does it tell you what version it is? Sometimes installing a driver from exe file doesnt work ( my intel 945 driver is one) I had to get a zip'ed driver, unzip it, goto the dev mgr, and update driver from there by point the dev mgr to the folder where the inf file is located. I doubt thats going to work but I know how frustrating these can be.
Let us know

Thaks for the help Zigzag the installed driver is Radeon X550 - Microsoft Corporation WDDM - And the driver version is 8.56.1.15 - Driver date is 24/04/2009 - From what that says I have the correct driver installed could it be sumthing else that im missing i.e. another driver ? Thanks again for the help
Thanks alot for your help with this , I have tried nearly all the drivers available from ATI but the problem I am getting is when trying to install them I get the error `failed to load detection driver` every time - Is this happening becuase im running Windows in safe mode?
37" Inch Samsung LCD - I`ve never had any problems with any computers on this tv before - Thank you for the help

I have no idea abt "detection driver" but alot of things arent loaded in safe mode. Is there any way you can boot into win 7 normally? You could use msconfig to diagnose/test what you can load at start up. Do you knwo how to use msconfig?

I friend of mine was also facing the same problem.
Disable the graphics card from Device manager while you are in safe mode.
Then you may be able to open it in normal mode but no aero.
You can also try installing vista graphics driver.
just try this although you wont get Aero.
