R32 video driver?

[nffc2010]

i've just installed 7 Starter on an R32 - all went well apart from two drivers. Windows update found the audio driver but i'm still using the 'standard vga adapter' driver.

i intend creating recovery discs & ideally i'd like to have the correct Ati M6MC video driver before doing so, can anyone point me towards it?

thanks in advance.

Well, you're not going to find Windows 7 drivers for a machine that old on the Lenovo web site. That leaves Windows update or AMD/ATI directly.

you have to go into device manager and manually update the driver. don't let windows find the driver, it will just put the generic vga one back on. you have to click on i will find the driver, then you have to go to where the ati download went and click on driver, then you will get your updated driver.
