cant install catalyst control center radeon 8500 all in wonder

[joewrenn]

good afternoon, i have a 8500 all in wonder 128 mb card. the machine is win 7. i can install the drivers, but cant seem to get the control center to install. when i do try to install it, the message tells me to install generic card drivers first. i have tried that to no avail. thanks.

joewrenn, welcome to the Seven Forums.

I hope this is the driver you are trying to install,

Catalyst

as there is not now and never will be a Windows 7 driver for that card (there isn't a Vista driver either). It may take using compatibility mode,

to get it to install properly. You will also likely not have any use of the AIW part of the card as there are no drivers for it either.

well, the driver went in, just the control center wont. its ok though, i can do without the control center i guess. time to upgrade computer
