You mean it actually INSTALLED an OPTI correctly? Can't say I've seen an OS do that.

i have only used a couple of Opti chips and they went in ok. but i really liked the way i didn't have to keep going into different directories only to be told" the specified location does not contain etc.etc."
one big warning. if you forget and leave a cdrom in the drive while adding drivers it will search the cdrom completely. takes a while when you have 600 mb. of driver files
