Answer 1

Apparently you are trying to install the wrong drivers for your adapter and that's why you get this error.

Answer 2

you should use a particular version for XP fairly than assuming any versionw ould be supported. See link for the various variations for various operarting structures for the Radeon HD 4550 pics card. you'll see you won't be able to use living house windows 7 version for XP etc Edit - also, the cardboard calls for Directx 10.a million and XP does not bypass larger than 9c version. the cardboard is genuinely not designed for XP yet fairly Vista 32 bit or living house windows 7 32 bit.

Answer 3
