In the thread below where I sought help with a problem on pages displaying correctly it was suggested that I make sure I had the latest driver installed which seemed like a good idea

Trying to find the latest driver and install it proved a little tricky and I was wondering if anybody could help

=====

The comp is an aging Sony laptop with the driver going back to 2001. However Sony apparently only provides the original driver for the model which I suspect is what I have already got.

Looking for the latest driver via ATI, I have been led on a bit of a merry go round that I do not fully understand but the long and the short of it is I have downloaded a suite of drivers (Catalyst) which will not open because it asked for a .net framework, which I d/l then it asked for the next version which I d/l but won't install because it needs some kind of validation which the comp was not able to provide. I also d/l a DH mod tool from driverheaven which listed my card in relation to the catalyst suite but all in all I haven't been able to update the driver.

Does anyone know a solution or a simpler way to get an updated driver for my card?
 
uninstall .net (presumably V1) and install newer .net (presumably V1.1)

Edit: exacly what grfx card have you got ?
 
Thanks for the suggestion

Well eventually after MB of downloads an updated driver (2006) has been downloaded but with the default settings it has made no difference to the display problem.

The graphics card is apparently just a ATI Mobility Radeon without any numbers attached to the end
