Not Downloading Latest Software

So I got a Asus AMD Radeon HD 6850, and when I got to the software page to download the software. It downloads and then I open Radeon to make sure it's on the latest version, and it has new updates. Which I click download, and downloads AMD Catalyst. But doesn't update. I tried the AMD CleanUp Utility, and redo the process and nothing. Then after it does do that. It won't even let me open up Radeon Settings unless I restart my computer. I need help

That is a legacy video card, so the latest drivers available are 15.7.1 WHQL and 16.2.1 beta. No newer drivers will be made, and you can ignore any notification which says otherwise.

It's old problem and it is not going to be fixed. These are Legacy graphics. Either ignore the notice or try one of these ideas > Legacy branch being nagged about GCN driver updates
