Angry Radeon X550 is not working properly


I recently put a Radeon X550 card in my computer. It worked (partially) when I booted up. The problem is that I can't get the resolution to go above 1024x768. I've edited xorg.conf to allow it. Also, aticonfig crashed on me when I ran it and borked my xorg.conf. Help please

I've reviewed that thread, but it really doesn't help much. I don't know any of the driver details about the card.

Updated status: For some reason, after reinstalling the driver, aticonfig worked. Now the only issue is the 3d.
