Jennifer,
I think your best bet is to contact AMD-ATI support for this.
I do not find any 1100 Series listed.

One more thing. I saw a post where you said you downloaded drivers from
Windows Update. Sorry to hear this because it was a big mistake. NEVER
download any drivers from that site. Most are outdated and some not even for
your version of windows. ALWAYS go to the source for your drivers.
