I'm running windows update after a fresh install of Win 7 Ultimate and it
keeps trying to install an ATI driver for my ATI gfx cards and it always
fails with this error.

I've updated the drivers manually with the most recent ones from ATI's site
but it won't recognize that they're above the version Windows is trying to
feed me. Should I just hide the update or is there another reason/fix for why
this is happening?

Thanks!

Ignore the Microsoft update. Get drivers from the manufacturer and ignore
Microsoft's (unless, of course, the manufacturer's drivers can't be obtained
anymore).

See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/952032

Translation: You don't need this driver update so just hide it.

Tip: Get driver updates from the manufacturer or your OEM, not Windows
Update.
