    Search for a driver at www.driverguide.com. The login info is user: drivers and password: all. (no secret to anyone). You can search for your driver here and will more than likely find it.

    Ati provides drivers for both ATI retail and OEM products. go to http://www.ati.com and on bottom left of screen, under the section labeled "Powered by ATI", click on find a driver.

    If your OEM product was created by a reputable manufacturer, you have nothing to worry about.. this would be somewhat like having an NVidia product created by PNY, or any other manufacturer.. the chipset is the same, and product specs should be identical to ATI retail products.

    hope this helps.
