    you probably have stock then. go to device manager (right click on my computer, manage), go to display adapters. If its stock, it should say 5870. If it says 5800 series, you need to reinstall cause u didn't install right.
    edit - it should say 5800 series though if you installed it correctly.

    In the device manager you could also have a look at the driver date.
    For 9.12 the release date should be something like december 2009.
