First thing is, do you use the HDMI audio? If not I wouldn't worry about it. If you do you can try installing just the audio driver manually through Device Manager,

You should have an AMD folder from when the installer extracted (unless you deleted it) on C:\. If so follow the above and point it to,

C:\AMD\AMD_Catalyst_12-1_Vista_7_32-64\Packages\Drivers\WDM

and that should get the audio driver to install. You can also get the standalone Realtek AMD driver from Realtek from here,

Realtek

Hello. Well the thing is that I have HDMI audio already installed by stand alone Realtek AMD driver as you mentioned. But then I am installing AMD Catalyst Mobility Display driver it is mentioning that it has failed to install the HDMI driver (well now as I understand because I have already installed it from Realtek?! )
I didn't know that the one from Realtek and the other from AMD Catalyst Mobility Display driver are the same HDMI drivers, but anyways i think it should just tell me that I have it installed not to worn me that it is failed !!! )))
Thank you very much for your response
have a nice day

The one from Realtek and the one from AMD are one and the same, seeing as the audio chip on AMD cards is a Realtek audio chip. The only difference between what comes in the Catalyst package and the one directly from Realtek would be which is newer.

Both drivers was just updated in a same day. First I installed Realtek HDMI and the AMD !!!anyways!
Thank you very much for helping me )))

Case is SOLVED!
