Help me to find my display driver please

Hello everyone.
I have this weird problem. My computer says (from properties>display>device manager) that my display driver is ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 but I couldn't find it in the ATI's official drivers website
It has "radeon 9000" and the mobility starts from "9600"
I'm using windows xp with service pack 3, its a desktop. while I was searching for drivers I got the idea that mobility drivers are for laptops. Then how in the world I'm using it in desktop?
its really confusing!!!
All I know is my driver is dated like 2004 and it player fifa 2008 well, now when I installed 2009 its showing some graphics card problem...someone told me updating the driver might be worth a try so I was wondering...
i dont really know much about drivers anyway
any kind of help will be greatly appreciated

its best to get the drivers from the computer manufacturers website. Sometimes there are minor differences with oem and what you get from ati.

Not the ATI website, but the computer manufacturer's website. What is the make and model of the computer?
