After reading the ATI forums... I am staying with 2.3... seems that 3.0 with DX9 hasn't quite got the bugs ironed out :D

I thought it was just the new name for their driver packs like Nvidia with detonators.Quote:

The catalysts, like the nvidia detonators and now the via hyperions are the new drivers.
Supposedly, the issues between dx9 and the drivers have been ironed out with catalyst 3.0a. Supposedly...
I believe there are still issues. I haven't installed those Catalyst 3.0 drivers yet, but I think I'll hold off for now. My system works fine with the catalyst 2.5.
well this new 8500 came with catalyst 2.4 v6.13.10.6200
10/12/2002.
is the 2.5 or 3.0 worth going to?
I'd stay away from 3.0 for now.Quote:

The 2.5 version has some bug fixes from 2.4.
But if you aren't having any issues right now, then stick with the ones you got for now.
Another Question I can seem to get answer for is do catalyst drivers also cover the Mobile vid chips? I Have a VAIO with ATI 7500 Mobility 32MB and cant get it to run Some games I am hesitent to use the catalyst is there a list of supported chipsets?????
Thx in advance
:D
Omegacorner This guy takes the drivers that ATI and Nvidia release, then rewrites them so they work... click on the ATI link and then choose Mobility... have fun
Thanks NooNoo why did I know you would find something
I will give it a shot this weekend
:D

:D :D :D
