need help with faulty drivers

C

Dont know if i'm posting in the right area, but i need
some help with some problem.

I recently installed the lastest ATI radeon graphics card
driver as prompted by my game which said it was not
updated, but all it did was gave me more problem.

Right after i restarted my com after installation, my
computer prompts me that 2 devices were found but the
installation files were missing, so i direct it to
c:\windows\system32\drivers and installed them promptly.
Thinking that my problem was solved i tried to run my
game, but it did not work. Therefore, it made me conclude
it could be the game's problem, so i ignored it and
abandon thoughts of playing the game.

Now, the problem is some of my programs can't work and
the speed of my computer seemed to come to a crawl. Even
pressing f5 on the desktop becomes laggy.

Help! I can't seem to revert to the old workable drivers
anymore, tried all i knew by uninstalling the drivers,
disabling them, reinstalling the old ones, just doesn't
solve the problem.

Anyone pls give some advice on how to fix my problem, i'd
be very appreciative if u even spend some time thinking
about it ^^.

Most ATI cards require that you uninstall the old software/drivers before
installing new ones. You might want to try uninstalling
everything...software and hardware...and then reinstalling the card with
just the new drivers.
