Cyan007 is on a distinguished road

Question, do you suggest uninstalling the old versions before installing 3.2?

For the best optimal performance of any driver (not only graphics), the best thing to do is to unistall the old drivers before you install the new one. Of coarse, for the "best best" performance, that would also mean clearing out your registry of any strings related to that piece of hardware (eg. ATI).

For the best available guide on the net for uninstalling ATI drivers, please take a look at Genius' guide for noobs. It is one fantastic guide.

It can be read HERE

Hope that helps
