Ok and how do I install then correctly? Don't I have to uninstall the drivers that are already installed and install the new ones? If so, how do I completely uninstall them?

This might be what you are looking for..

Edit: ops, didn't update the thread. I believe opening the install will allow you to first uninstall.

I am not that familiar with AMD drivers as I have Intel and Nvidia but there should be a clean install option or similar at amd too. Otherwise, just install it on top of the other and it should be ok.

Ok, I just uninstall the drivers and updated them and now my video device says "AMD Radeon HD 7500 Series (Microsoft Corparation - WDDM v1.20)" is that normal?

Alright then, does the game work now? Well, if you have catalyst installed then you should be just fine.

Well, I already downloaded these before and basically had the same thing but, it would happen everyday, in the afternoon, my PC would start to lag, and then I get a black screen and then it would recover saying my display adapters stopped responding and have recovered. I will basically see if it worked later today.

Edit: I got the error again while playing Amnesia. I don't think this error is going to stop until I upgrade my graphics card. Also, I don't see my Control Center anymore, how do I get it back?
