M17xR2 Black Screen

I recently installed my Video Driver and now when I try to shutdown my laptop everything goes fine until the end, it stays on with a black screen, I also get a black screen when I leave my computer idle. Everything else works fine, every game I plays runs without a problem. I can only shutoff my computer by holding the power button. The problem actually goes away if I uninstall my video driver and just have the generic one. Is something wrong with my settings or what?

dude, you installed a very old display driver...its from 8/10/2010

Get the cats 11.9 official and install.

Download here:

ATI Catalyst? Mobility Display Driver

 

Ya im pretty sure i installed that one too still had the same issue, is there a newer BIOS i can download? Going to try the newer Display driver again.

 

i assume that you have the m17x R2?? there is an A10 bios for the R2
