    I installed the latest catalyst driver and I was no longer able to switch to IGP so I uninstalled it and now I am having a huge problem. My 6970m is no longer being recognized by gpu-z and my device manager, it just says "Standard VGA graphics adapter" and I can't change my screen resolution higher than 1280x1024. I tried reinstalling the original catalyst drivers but it didn't work. Please help me.

    Edit: I reinstalled from the Resource CD and it fixed eveything! Mods feel free to delete this thread.
