Hi,
Remove the driver in Control panel > Add or remove programs. Then reboot - tap F8 during the boot process - choose VGA mode in the menu that comes up. Reinstall the driver and reboot.

You'll find a new driver here. Uninstall the "old" software for xpress 200 in the control panel - reboot. After installing the new driver - reboot again.

Do you have administrator rights on that computer? Are you the only one using it?

Since you get that message you're not logged in as administrator. Are you able to do that (log in as admin)?

cws123 · 04-15-2007, 02:54 AM

I would like to try if i knew how???

**Deleted090308** · 04-15-2007, 03:02 AM

Boot into "Safe mode" by tapping F8 during startup - log in as admin.

cws123 · 04-15-2007, 03:36 AM

Done all that still no go. any ideas

**Deleted090308** · 04-15-2007, 03:41 AM

Do I understand this correctly? Are you not allowed to remove the "old" driver when you're logged in as administrator?

cws123 · 04-15-2007, 04:29 AM

No. removed old driver np (restart)install new driver np(restart)then when it booted back up into windows it gave me the small box on screen that said something like i cant configure settings in control panel contact admin for help. and it seems to have loaded new drivers ok, they are in program dir.???

should i try this process again uninstall-install

**Deleted090308** · 04-15-2007, 06:03 AM

Maybe a silly question: Did you follow these instructions when you uninstalled the old ATI software?

cws123 · 04-16-2007, 01:50 AM

i read the raedon link, yes i did it the way they have asked people too.

also i should probably tell you games that once worked on my pc, now do not, which is the reason why i am trying to reinstall drivers.

is the computer yours ? if not then get the owner to log on as the administrator and configuer the settings for the graphics and try playin the game you want to play.

cws123 · 04-17-2007, 03:14 AM
