I was wondering how to update my video card drivers. I have Radeon x1300/1550 (Windows 7 32-bit). Im a bit confused, do I have to download ATI Catalyst Control Suite? Please dont just give me a link to the website, that wont help me. Thanks :)

You will need to open your case, unscrew your RAdeon x1300/1550, and replace it with a modern card.

Hmm...

": 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"

What do you mean by "update the card" ? do you want to download updated drivers for it, or replace it with a new card?

ATI X1300 cards are supported out-of-the-box in Windows7. Just use the default drivers, there really aren't any other drivers available for that old card.

Im sorry, I meant to ask how to update my drivers.

vista drivers should work fine for this card on windows 7.

All right, thanks. I really need to get a new computer. I cant even run Minecraft because my computer doesnt support OpenGL.
