    Hey so I have an HP Pavilion dv7. 4gig ram and an Radeon HD 3200
    yes not the best video card in the world but with my laptop I can play games like Stalker, oblivion and the witcher at high settings.

    Now my drivers are all out of date but when ever I go to the radeon sites to find a download for an updated video drivers all these different sites just have me download tihs application that find all outdated drivers for you. However in order to have them download the new drivers you have to pay them for the program.

    I can not figure out how to get the latest drivers for my laptop. Please help me : )

    Thanks
