Radeon X300-X500 series graphics card driver update?

I have a AMD Radeon X300-X500 series card and I am having some problems and would like to update the drivers to see if that fixes anything.

I went to the driver download center on the AMD site and searched for drivers for that series of card but the only drivers they had were DX9 and dxdiag says it currently supports DX11.

Is there any place that I can get a new driver for this card that supports DX11?

This is a DirectX 9.0 card, have a look at Wikipedia. Your card has been launched 2004, neither DirectX 10 nor 11 were specified back then.

Also from Wikipedia is this info from a table:

Retail/card series name: R9500-R9800, X300-X600, X1050
Chip series: R300
Graphics APIs support: DirectX 9.0, OpenGL 2.0
Notes: ATI's DirectX 9.0 technology, released in 2002, incorporated pixel shader. Included in this generation are Radeon 9500–9800, X300–X600, and X1050.

The version of DirectX a card supports can not be upgraded by a driver.
