Radeon VE (64meg) Supergrace Hybrid.

[Garak]

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" />

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.

Installing Quake 3 : Arena for testing perposes to think i actually bought something lol....

[Garak]

Well, my display is still corrupting its not looking good, any other suggestions?

[DocPC]

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" />

I ain't giving up yet Doc, I'm sure i will find something.... Reviews or something, recommended BIOS settings...

<a href="http://www.ati.com/support/drivers/powered.html" target="_blank">http://www.ati.com/support/drivers/powered.html</a>
i been here and got the drivers, installed then, been into my BIOS, upped my AGP aperture size to 256 (half my system ram) and disabled video and system cache...

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

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" />
