Hmmm, I don't like automatic driver downloaders, I think I can find it if I know your os, what operating system are you using? (XP, Vista ect. (also bit type, 32 or 64).

Ok, found them.
http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx
Choose your operating system, in the next list choose Integrated/Motherboard, then in the list after that choose Radeon HD 3200. Click Go.

On the new page you have the choice of downloading that whole pacakge, or separate parts. You could probably try the whole package since it would update the catalyst control center too. Or just grab the display driver. Up to you.

Did some searching and found this: http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview. ... did=109142 . Try what "AmberViking" said:
Hi All

Having had the same problem I have found the following works.

Remove all Catalyst software and drivers and restart.

Run the installer, but choose the custom option.

Where the install path is "C:/Program Files/ATI Technologies" delete the "Technologies" and continue with the installation.

Worked for me! (Dodgy bit of coding?)

Hope it works for you
Uninstall the display adapter (like in the tutorial) and also the catalyst control center. Then follow the rest of the tutorial and try reinstalling it in "C:/Program FIles/ATI"

You uninstalled the display driver before so it probably won't be there. Try to uninstall the install manager, then run the package again.

I meant you are using the package that installs all of it right? Or are you installing parts of it?

Then I said good luck because it seems like you've been hitting a lot of problems with this ;).

Which link? Theres a bunch of them. I wouldn't click it anywho. I don't like things that automatically update my whole computer's drivers. The safest way to do it is to manually go to each manufacturer's site and download them that way. Then you know exactly what you are downloading and for what.
