Where are the drivers? - Ignis - 10-31-2010

I'm having trouble with the graphics in the Amnesia demo (namely, the camera flips upside-down constantly) and I followed the supposed link to download the updated drivers in the FAQ section, but it just led me to a site for a program that's just a search function (PareToLogic) for outdated drivers and software. Well, I downloaded it, ran it, and it gave me a list of things that had nothing to do with my graphics card and that confused me even more, so can someone please just give me a link or something to the actual drivers themselves instead of this annoying round-about way that doesn't help at all?

My graphics card is an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 XT, if that helps.

What is your OS?
Try here:

- Noteboot Graphics
- Mobility Radeon Series
- Mobility Radeon HD 2xxx Series
- Choose your OS

My OS is Windows XP (although I run it on a MAC desktop)

Thanks, though! I'll check out that link.

EDIT: Ok, having a problem with that link now. It's asking me what type of Windows XP I have: 32 bit or 64 bit. I have no idea and I've checked in the system properties section of my computer's control panel and it doesn't say! How else do I find out?

winkey+R -> msinfo32 -> <ENTER>


RE: Where are the drivers? - Ignis - 10-31-2010

The hell does that mean??

I typed msinfo32 into Run, and got a more detailed list of my system components, but still nothing to indicate whether it was 32-bit or 64-bit. I'm starting to think maybe I should just guess and pick one and download the drivers for that. Will that work, or will it screw up my computer?


RE: Where are the drivers? - Kein - 10-31-2010

Okay, just pickup 32b and try to setup it.


RE: Where are the drivers? - Tanshaydar - 10-31-2010

If you don't know what you have, then you have 32-bit version.
But I guess there is no XP support :/ You should think to switch to Windows 7 or Linux. Because 10.10 drivers weren't released for XP.

Have you tried using Windows to update your driver? I had this problem in the full game but updating with Windows fixed it.


RE: Where are the drivers? - Ignis - 10-31-2010

Actually, I just googled my processor and apparently the type is 64-bit. .so the internet says, anyway. Should I rely on that result?

Ok, I'm getting frustrated here. I followed that link and downloaded what it wanted me to, but it seems like it's just another driver-search program called ATI, only it makes even less sense than PareToLogic! After installing it I had a hard time even just finding it in my program file folders and when I did, there didn't seem to be any program launch icons, just a couple of "customer care" folders and there's another folder entitled "ATI Technologies". . and there's nothing in it. What is going on here? Where are the actual drivers??
