Video driver for Inspiron 9300 with Windows 7
My Inspiron 9300 with XP was upgraded to Windows 7. I put in a new hard drive and memory. Now some of the drivers won't load, specifically the Video adapter - R101351. Is there a driver that will work with Windows 7?

That's the ATI Mobility Radeon X300
Try first http://support.amd.com/en-us/download
Unfortunately I can only get the driver if I select Desktop, try it and see if it works:
Otherwise you need to get it from the Microsoft Update Catalog as the AMD website got upgraded recently and is now pretty awful for finding legacy drivers.
Note you will have to add the driver to the basket and then download. There is no charge but it requires use of Internet Explorer.
Windows 7 32 Bit Driver:
http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/ScopedViewInline.aspx?updateid=0d207f10-2f63-4bb3-a7a0-19e395c5d8c6 (select add to basket)
http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/ViewBasket.aspx (download)
Once you get the driver install via the device manager:
Right click the device and select update driver:
Select browse my computer for driver software
Specify the location of your downloaded .cab file or extracted .exe and ensure include subfolders is checked. Then select next, next and finish.
