Problem with Omega Drivers

Hey fellas, I just installed the new ATi Omega drivers on my laptop. The only problem is that it recognizes my Mobility 9200 as a 9000. What could be causing this problem? It says my core clock speed is 249.75, and my memory is 220.5, is this right? Oh yeah, also after I installed it it changed the first three icons on my quicklaunch bar to the setup icon, the Omega icon, and the driver install icon... that's just gonna be annoying to fix :(
 
Weird. Did you run the driver cleaner before installation? I don't know what would make it improperly detect like that... If not, uninstall, use the driver cleaner, then reinstall.

If that still fails, all I can think to do is to manually choose the driver. After installation, go to the video driver settings whether in device manager or the display settings and choose the option to update the driver, tell it to use the one you select, then select the have disk option, and browse to the directory omega installed to. You should find an inf file somewhere in there (I think under a directory labled after the OS version.) Choose it and ok the dialog, it should take you back. Turn off the option to show compatible hardware only and hopefully you should get a list of all hardware the drivers support.
