    you can check your current version by going to "Control Panel>Device Manager>Display adapters" then right click on the device, goto "Properties" then the "Driver" tab. If you find a site for the latest driver downloads, you can also use this tab to update the driver. I don't have that GPU so can't point you to a reliable site i'm afraid, sure someone else will though :)

    a quick google search lead me to this: http://support.ati.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=894&task=knowledge&questionID=26978

    I think he was reffering to the Toshiba x300 laptop, not the ati x300 video card... In that case go to www.laptopvideo2go.com and download the latest driver from the 177 series... Don't forget to download the modded inf for the selected driver... Then unzip the driver and copy the modded inf inside that folder.. Finally run the Setup...

    Almost forgot, first uninstall your previous driver by control panel / add & delete programs... And use drivercleaner to delete every trace of the old driver...
