You may need to uninstall the previous drivers before attempting to install newer ones. In control panel's Add/Remove Programs, there should be a listing for Uninstall All ATI programs (or some such). I'd probably also recommend using a program like Driver Cleaner (in Windows safe mode)to remove any remnants.
