    Hello,

    I just got a new PC and it runs one of my games like garbage. I was reading about it and it appears the 10.x drivers are no good for the game.

    I have a Mobility Radeon HD 5870 and need it to run on the 9.3, 4 or 5 drivers.

    If anyone can help me out that would be great. I need it to work for Win7 64 bit.

    Thanks Alot!

    Download the Mobility Modder.

    It's pretty straightforward, from what I've been told.

    I tried that, but when I go to install the drivers, windows says they aren't for this version of windows.

    Any my card isn't in there.

    The older drivers will not support your card. They almost certainly are unable to work with the architecture changes of the 5000 series. The oldest version of the drivers that you could realistically run are the ones that shipped with the first 5000 series cards. 9.10, or fairly close to that. And on a mobile card that's even less likely.

    Where are the 10.6 drivers? I only see 10.5.

    I found some 10.6, but they don't install, even with using driver sweeper. The MSI doesn't install them either.

    Forgot to add... I need the Mobile drivers.
