Problems with this card in windows 2K, downloaded the updated drivers from Microsoft, but the keep currupting the screen, any ideas, works fine in XP - Will the original drivers from ATI work correctly??

thanks

Garak.

Rule #1. NEVER trust the drivers from MS.

Rule #2. See rule #1.

Use the reference drivers.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> :D

Since Supergrace is an ATI partner, you will need to use the Supergrace drivers, or find the ATI partner reference drivers on ATI's site. Go to <a href="http://www.ati.com" target="_blank">www.ati.com</a> and click on find a driver on the left.

It will guide you to the correct driver by part number or partner number or model.

Hate to say it, but I have had nothing but trouble with ATI partner cards.

Try a Built by ATI or Nvidia card......Better off in the long run.

Sorry, brother Dragon............... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />

Look at freddies offer..... :D <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> :p

Can be had for much cheaper.

I know the feeling of winning, but I don't get that chance much anymore........ <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />
