I wanted to try Windows 7 on my “grandpa computer” (it’s six years old this month) equipped with an ATI Radeon 9200.
Having already installed it elsewhere, I preferred to postpone the search for drivers until after installation; good decision because the only drivers it couldn’t find were those for the video card and the secondary sound card (well, I already knew this and in fact I had them already prepared).
So I went to the ATI website but couldn’t find them either for Windows 7 or Vista (sometimes using Vista drivers is enough).
I did a search on Google and, to my great surprise, I immediately found the solution here and here.
I’ve re-uploaded the file: you can also find it here.
To install them, you simply need to extract the contents, go to “Device Manager” (you can find it in “Control Panel” -> “System” or right-click on “Computer” -> “Properties”), right-click on the video card (if you haven’t tried to install XP drivers, it should be one of the first results with a yellow triangle) and left-click on “Update Driver Software”, “Browse my computer for driver software”, click on “Browse” and select the folder where you extracted the contents of the archive and then click “Next”.
Wait for the operation to complete and restart (it’s not necessary but usually done).
Done.
Bye!
