I have old notebook HP NW8440 (graphic: ATI FIREGL V5200, processor: intel centrino duo T7200 2GHz, OS: WIN7 HomePremium 32bit) and I can´t get video card driver. I got one, but its not working properly.
For Example: i have 2D game level editor based on java, but its not working good, and when i asked developer, he said theres only problem with updating my drivers. In Adapter-type window i see that its up to date, but as i said its not working. Appreciate everybodys help. i am desperate with this. thanks.
