ATI drivers are fairly simple. Simply go to their web site ati.amd.com and get the right driver for your OS.

For the most part, removal of the old software is not needed. The installation program will remove and replace any old drivers that are outdated.

yeah ATIs pretty good about being clean with their driver updates

I personally had some issues with the Catalyst control center, so i left that out of my latest upgrade, just have the drivers..
