    Well, i have toshiba l655-121.
    graphic card: ATI Mobillity 5650 1gb.
    I can only use the toshiba drivers or the new driver's won't load it.
    I've tried to install the drivers through safe-mode, to use driver sweeper, to uninstall the old one's before but nothing works for me...
    I want to use the new drivers and not the old one's :/
    some one have solution for me? any idea?
    thanks.

    Isn't Toshiba one of the manufacturers that opted out of using the official updates?
