to check the video card details type devmgmt.msc in run and press enter to open your device manager.



Now open the Display Adapters category and you will see the name of display adapter.



Now check for the update at the manufacturer site if you are not able to get updates there then you can try the driver updating applications like Driver Detective, Driver Agent or Advanced Driver Optimizer they will get you the latest updates 4 ur drivers so u dont have to search them they will download the latest updates and will install them .



u can try there trial version to see if they show updates. I prefer Advanced Driver Optimizer as with it I have to just scan and can update all my drivers in single click just a best optimizer for driver.



The best part is if it installed incorrect driver then I can roll back using their restore facility.|||hi, i guess this program can help you do this. and here is the page for video driver:

I upggraded to windows 7 video card prob?

Ok so i need to install a driver for an ati radeon xpress1100 but all it is on compaq is for vista not 7 any help?|||Hi Mike,



I agree with Air Canada, visit ATI Radeon's website to find the correct driver - http://support.amd.com/us/Pages/AMDSuppo…



If you still cannot find the driver for Windows 7, give the Vista driver a try. Vista drivers often do the trick in Windows 7 as well :)

Note: AMD’s DirectX 9 ATI Radeon graphics accelerators are not officially supported under Windows 7. If the user chooses to, they can install the ATI Catalyst Windows Vista graphics driver under Windows 7. Please be aware that none of the new Windows 7 graphics driver (WDDM 1.1) features are supported (as the Windows Vista level graphics driver is limited to WDDM 1.0 level support). Using the ATI Catalyst Windows Vista driver under Windows 7 is not officially supported by AMD, and as such AMD will not provide any form of customer support for users running in this configuration.

Do I need to install drivers after building a Windows 7 machine?

I just installed Windows 7 on a newly built PC. Do I need to install things like chipset and video card drivers? Everything seems to be working great right out of the box.|||hmmmm|||In most cases, no. If your system hardware is popular enough, or new enough, meaning at minimum the age of Windows XP, or in most cases even Windows 2000, Windows 7 driver base should be able to detect your hardware and install most drivers for it.



If the installation doesn't install the drivers, so long as you have an active network connection, Windows Update should be able to surf the web and find most drivers for most hardware, provided again if the hardware is generic/popular and not overly-aged.|||Hi CRex,



If your computer is operating without a hitch, I am guessing Windows 7 automatically found drivers for you via updates. If you find that your devices are not working properly, I recommend visiting the manufacturer websites and downloading the correct drivers for Windows 7.



Enjoy Windows 7!

Microsoft Windows Outreach|||I would recommend you do, I'm not sure how 7 works, but drivers are the connection between the OS and the hardware installed, and not having that connection in place can cause major issues in the future. So I would recommend installing them and updating regularly, good luck with your new PC...|||yes you can but sometime ther is problem with the window 7 to install the software i also use the window 7 but when i try to install the oracle or c# software it do not support and there is problem|||hi, in my oppinion, yes. and i can also share you a video driver download link:
