Posted by: TotalRecall

ATI has released version 2.5 of their Catalyst drivers. Updates include:

• The RADEON™ 9700, RADEON™9500, RADEON™ 9000, and RADEON™8500 series no longer experience slow downs when moving WINAMP windows around the display area
• The system display panel no longer shows the incorrect ATI driver version after installing a secondary ATI card when using a multi monitor configuration
• Running the 3DMark2001 Lobby test on RADEON™ 7000 card no longer suffers from display corruption (specifically found in Max Payne's glasses)
• Display corruption is no longer found when playing the game Revolt
• Running multiple 3DLab demos under Windows 2000 or XP when using a
RADEON™ 9000 Pro will no longer result in a system hang
• Using the mouse to zoom out and rotate the view to a birds eye view in the game NeverWinter Nights no longer causes flashing squares and missing textures/triangles
• The game Aquanox no longer displays texture mapping corruption when the Landscape Light option is set to on
• No One Lives Forever 2 demo no longer has display corruption when using a hardware cursor with the MOBILITY RADEON™ 9000
• Hibernating message screen is now displayed on a DVI panel when a RADEON™ 9700 is installed
• The assigned hotkey to minimize all apps on the current monitor is now functioning correctly on a RADEON™ 8500 running under Windows 2000
• Running the GL Quake .97 at 1024x768x32bpp no longer results in a GPF
• SMARTGART now correctly indicates the AGP Setting and Fast write status on the RADEON™8500 under Windows 2000 and the RADEON™ 9000 under Windows ME. Previous to this release both AGP setting and AGP Fast writes were always being reported as off

ATI Drivers? Problems? NAH!

Perhaps the drivers will help a little, but the ATI cards will never have as good of compatibility with games as the Nvidia cards, nor will they ever have fewer problems.

I think I'm gonna make ignorant comments too everytime there's an ATI thread, great way to increase your post count.

Someone should explain to him why it doesn't matter instead of owning him left and right.
