[WIN8] Need new video card after upgrade to Win8

Has anyone else had the problem with an onboard video card not working correctly after upgrading to Windows 8? I had a ATI Radeon HD 4250 on board video card that stopped outputing HD after the upgrade. Apparently AMD does not support Windows 8 drivers for the 4000 series video cards. I had to upgrade to a Nvidea GeForce GT 601 video card and now everything works perfectly again.

Well there you go, if AMD doesn't want to support their older hardware for newer OSs, then the user has to update their hardware to use the newer OSs. This isn't really new...
