Different drivers on same card?

[Ninjaman 4]

I have a ATI Radeon 4100 card, could I just like install the drivers maybe one step above that and be fine? Or should I leave it alone?

i'm no expert, but i'm pretty sure your drivers have to be for your card normally.

[SpreadsPlague]

why would you want to install different drivers to begin with?

[blaman]

That's just a bad idea.

I would never do that. Make your drivers the updated ATI Radon 4100 specified drivers.

Edit:> it appears that AMD (ATI co-corporation) has drivers for you available via a driver identifying tool.

getting drivers for a better card wont make your card better

it'll just make it not-work

whenever i have an amd radeon card i never update it, period.

because updated drivers have a known grudge with me, forcing me to use system restore.

The last time I installed the wrong driver (it was for a NIC) my computer would crash whenever I logged on.
Had to start it safe mode and uninstall it.

Don't try it. Drivers are made for specific cards for a reason.
