The PC is done, but I have a problem...

Firstly, happy Christmas everyone, however I have a couple of problems relating to my hardware. The problem is that when I run some programs to check if my setup is good enough to play games, it gets everything right apart from the VRAM of my GPU and doesn't show the make or modal of the GPU. Instead it says that I'm using a 'AMD ATOMBIOS' and that I am only using 16MB of VRAM. How do I sort this out, any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Okay, I do have my monitor plugged straight into the GPU. Any other help you guys can offer?

I don't think so but there is a chance that it does. There are no display ports however on the motherboard... So I'm kinda stuck on what to do

I've got it linked from the GPU to the monitor through HDMI

Do I get those drivers from the original CD that was supplied with the GPU or do I have to go and find them on the XFX website? That was a very helpful tip by the way, thanks
