As stated earlier, did it work for you on any previous kernels?
Also, what happens when you modprobe fglrx manually?Michael Larabel

Hi again,
I was just wondering what steps should I take now that the kernel has been upgraded. It seems to have jumped back to mesa. I tried using --extract but that doesn't seem to work. I'm guessing that has something to do with seeing old drivers. Am I supposed to uninstall and reinstall with each upgrade? Any help thanks.

You should be able to follow the same steps, just reinstall the fglrx kernel-module.Michael Larabel

I must be going insane because I can't remember what I did last time to extract from the installer. I'm typing this at the moment but just not working, it deletes the folder at the end. I just realised though, I'm getting a different error at the end.
