    Yeah, it seems like 4 is your best bet. It would be a clean install too. Good luck and let us know what happens.

    Hello 64 bit, renthor gives good advice.
    When you clean install Win7x64, you'll be offered ati drivers from Microsoft Update. It's fine to install them. (drivers only. There is no ccc.)

    NEXT, you'll want to get new driver package now available.

    Go to ATI & get latest driver for Win7x64 for 4870 card. Now there is a new package available, with ccc.

    As hardmack mentioned, this is the driver file you want:

Some drivers are not signed and Window 7 will refuse to load them. What to do? Turn on test signing which allows Windows 7 to load unsigned drivers. To enable this you have to open a command prompt as administrator and type the following command: C:\>bcdedit -SET TESTSIGN NO Norm
