    How do I get the latest ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 graphics driver? When I went to the ATI web site it said something about Mobility Radeon drivers not being supported and contact your laptop manufacturer. So I went to HP and downloaded and installed the latest driver according to Chaz's post (verified that it had worked through CCC), but my 3DMark score is only 3150. The driver version I am using is 8.391.7.2-080129a1-059616C-HP.

    You probably get asked this question a lot but I couldn't find the answer anywhere in 30 minutes or so of looking. Thanks!

    naa, take a closer look. the latest driver available is still the 8.391.1.1.2.

    this driver has been updated by hp. during the latest bios fix they also updated some files from the old driver. basicly this is still the ati driver from october 2007. and i think it´s even based on an older catalyst.

    Thanks, how do I get the latest BIOS? I'm looking at the HP web support web site and its not obvious...is Driver-Chipset or something else? I'm using Windows Vista Enterprise edition 32-bit OS, not sure if it matters. Thanks!
