Every time I start up my Extensa 4420, I get the following error message window:

"The Catalyst Control Center is not supported by the driver version of your enabled graphics adapter. Please update your ATI graphics driver, or enable your adapter using the Displays Manager."

Why is this happening? If I go into the device manager, it says that the graphics adapter is working. If I tell it to check for updated drivers it says that the driver I have installed is the most current one. Everything seems to work fine on the computer. How can I stop the message from popping up every time?

One of the updates you downloaded isn't compatible with the version on ATI software that you are running, you have to roll back the version of the driver you downloaded.

Go into Device Manager and click on "Roll back driver" to the earlier version.

I had that same issue.

Thanks. I'll try that when I get home today.

I did a rollback and that seems to have worked. Thank you!
