I want to update my XFX Radeon HD 5450 but when I try to install it none of my games work.
I tried downloading it from: http://support.amd.com/en-us/download, last time I tried none
of my games were working and my drivers would crash every time I opened a game.
I have Ubuntu 64bit (Not Mac) and I dont know what the issue is. can someone help please?

This is my build in case you need it: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3D8mz

Thanks! I tried it the first time and it didn't work, I just had to restart my PC. But now games like Garry's Mod and TF2 wont work but I guess I just have to swap back to the original driver. Thanks again for the help!
