Hello,

recently I accidentally deleted my ati card information from the
change/remove programs screen. I downloaded the driver update for radeon
mobility 9000 and it did not work. I soon realized that the original card was
simply not displaying among devices when attempting to add it back. All that
showed up were a number of rage cards when I went to the ati section of the
hardware add menu. There are alot of those old cards "in" my computer, and as
a result none of the drivers that are compatible with my card(the 9000) that
I Know is in there will install because they dont see it. The biggest issue
is getting windows to recognize i have the card in there. How should i
troubleshoot this? Thanks

try installing the OMEGA drivers from this site

http://www.omegadrivers.net/

They worked for me, since the original ATI drivers are a pain in the neck.

What you deleted was NOT the driver, its unneeded software for interrogating
and setting refined settings for an ATI card. I purposefully don't install
this software, just the driver package.
Devices do not show up in add/remove programs section of any version of
Windows. Look in device mangler (manager).
