Mobile pc display instead of Ati mobility? Drivers recognised

[Sienna]

I've had this problem since installing the new 11.5 catalyst...In devices the Ati Mobility HD 5470 card is recognised, the drivers installed, but my display still doesn't give me the option of using it, and all 3D applications run incredibly slowly... Any help much appreciated,
Thanks

I suggest that you roll back the drivers to a previous version.

youare talking abt ati mobility 5470? that means you have a laptop...usually manufactures of laptop tweaks the hardware of the mobile graphics cards...so it is advisable to not download drivers from the ATI websitr...instead use your laptop manufacturers webite...

I did attempt to use the windows roll back, but just got a black screen, after restarting nothing had changed.

In_core should I just go to the packard Bell website and see what I can find then?

Thanks, just found one; do I uninstall the driver I have first, or can I just overwrite it?

yah! uninstall it and then instal the new one...

Afraid nothing's changed...I noticed the drivers you advised are written correctly but the system still thinks it's catalyst 11.5...I used the catalyst uninstaller, is it just not removing everything properly?

Sorry for being such a pain!

many user in tomshardware recommends using driver sweeper software to remove old drivers..u can try that

I don't know if I'm willing to download 3rd party software at the moment, thanks for all your help in_core, will definately download if I can't find a way around it

I've also just noticed that under 'processes' there are no Ati processes running. I also only have the following my my Windows/System32/drivers folder:

ati2erec.dll
AtiHdmi.sys
AtihdW76.sys
atikmdag.sys
atikmpag.sys
atipmdag.sys

Seems like I'm missing some dlls?
