If you head onto the MSI website and the AMD website you can find the most up to date drivers there. Download your motherboard ones, and then get the newest version of Catalyst Control Centre from AMD for your card, and you'll be good to go.

Can i just ask as there are lost of drivers to download, do i need 2 download them all? or just a couple of them

If you grab "MSI Live Update", it will provide all the drivers for the board - easier than manually downloading them all off the site.

Install motherboard drivers form disc.
Install AMD drivers from website.

Works best for me. ( I have a Gigabyte board though so literally nothing works until you run the driver disc)
