I have a Toshiba Sattelite P10 and i was wondering what type of graphics card it has?

its a ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 BUT when i go to the ati site it gives me 3 options to click on:
RADEON
TV Tuners
Motherboard with Ati Graphics

what one do i click on?(i just want to update my driver)

Most of the time you are stuck with the oem drivers that came with your laptop. If it were a normal Radeon card you would of course pick Radeon, but because it is the mobility chipset that driver doesn't work. I have a Dell Inspiron 9600 and have to also use oem drivers.

Not to be harsh, but by judging from your posts, have you ever come across the term "Google" or "Search"????

I use the Omega drivers, but i wouldnt recommend them for the 'average user' as the extras it comes with are advanced

As for the way they give out drivers at least when you find them they work

/OFFTOPIC
I have searched EVERYWHERE (Google, driver guide) for drivers to get an nVidia Riva TN2 32mb AGP card working
nVidia have drivers and says it supported and for xp and yet i run the installer and it goes you arent using a supported card so i cant my d3d acceleration
/OFFTOPIC

Anyway i didnt think that the omega drivers are 'meant' for mobile products?
