MSi GPU Driver not being installed :(.

[koolent]

Today after receiving a new MSi R6770 MD1GD5, I plugged it as necessary and turned my PC on.

The GPU turns on, Gives a display but 800 x 600 resolution, tried installing drivers from the provided Disk but I could not, it gave me an error message

"Driver Install: the driver package does not specify a hardware identifier"

after reading a few articles, I downloaded Driver Sweeper and cleaned the Intel and AMD Driver MAnager.

I am downloading drivers from the MSi website now.

will it be all right after this ?

Then go to system properties on My computer and click on it. Then click on device manager and a window should pop up. Locate 'display adapters' from the list and click on the drop down arrow. Your gpu's model should appear. Right click on it and then click on Update Driver Software. Finally choose the updates to be done automatically (i.e. first option) This should download the latest drivers for your gpu.

Hope this helps!

Your best bet would be to go to http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Pages/radeonaiw_vista64.aspx this will give you the latest AMD drivers for your HD 6770. The drivers on MSI's website are very old.

Thanks ! I downloaded them from AMD and now I have a fine GPU with Afterburner and Kombuster.

Everything is running good, played Team Fortress 2 for testing.

Thanks again
