ATI Radeon HD5470 HD5450 Windows 7 Driver

There are issues for this driver especially for certain model such as HP G62 and Compaq presario CQ32.

Most people will get the latest catalyst driver instead of using the driver provided by the laptop/computer manufacture.

Latest Catalyst (on feb 2012) : 12.12 win 7/vista 32 and 64-bit : Download

Generally here is the most stable catalyst driver version i found so far:

Ati catalyst version 11.2
ATI Catalyst Version 10.12


1. Compaq/HP Model:
The driver provided by compaq/HP is sp50231.exe
But direct installation normally don;t give a max resolution (case for HP G62) so you need to upgrade the BIOS version to  F28-F29, install Intel HD 3000 (swicthable graphic) and turn off power play in CCC. ( not recommended to use this driver )

2. Acer Model
VGA_AMD_8.741.1.5000_W7x86W7x64_A.zip : Download
Support : Radeon HD 5470  Radeon HD 6370M
This driver only applicable for acer (4738G etc) and Acer didn't allow to use with non-acer product.

Alternatives : You can also use your original Windows XP and Windows Vista drivers. Direct Installation will failed so you need to install base on the installation method described below.

INSTALLATION:

---

First install directly by just extracting the driver, and run the igxpun.exe, even it will prompt some component are corrupted but you will get the maximum resolution after the installation.


IF FAILED??

If failed we need to install it manually:

1. Extract the driver and we we get the extracted folder.

---

3. A device manager will open, right click on standard VGA and select update driver.

HOW DO I ENABLE AERO?

---

There are not yet a single Official and Unofficial Drivers manage to get aero to work (this is not a fact but from my research). If there are, share it here and it would be a great help for others =)
But, there was a user manage to install the driver and said that she used a third party software to enable aero. I recommend to use true transparency software.

UPDATE:
For Windows 8, this driver reported work with 900 series chipset and it fix the resolution problem in windows 8:
Direct Linkhttp://downloadmirror.intel.com/22630/a08/Win32_152815.exe
In case if the link dead, instead of waiting for me to add a new link, just google Win32_152815.exe.

Update 2 - April 4 2014 -
I re-read all the comments from you guys and i think I have to clarify about : failed to play games after successful installation. If you manage to install using the driver I gave but getting several problems such as cannot play games which you normally play in windows XP, or have some bugs and glitch. What you can do to fix that is install your original windows XP drivers using manual installation method. Or use your Vista drivers (if available) and set compatibility mode to windows Vista.
