Hi,
Install Windows 8 pro on my HP pavilion dv6 laptop last night. After the install I keep getting a blank screen, then a message telling me that my graphic card is not supported. I think it's ATI mobillity (not sure what number)

Windows 8 installed a driver for it,but it does not work.

I did a google search and could not find the right ati card.

Can anyone pls help?

it seems that MS have installed their own drivers for my card via windows update. And it's almost impossible to uninstall them.
