A few days ago I posted here for information and guidance on
installing my 8500DV in a new machine I've just built.  Based on those
recommendations, I've now installed Catalyst 4.6, MMC 9.1.0.0, and
DAO/MDAC 9.1.0.0.  I did not attempt to install the DVD Decoder since

I am using the Omega softmod upgrade for my 9500np based on the 4.6 Cats.
Problem, and a strange on at that, is that I have artifacts in 3dmark2k1,
3dmark03, Aquamark, UT2003, UT2004, but *not* Quake III arena!  I switched
UT2003/2004 to OpenGL and the artifacts began to form a ...

I just replaced my 9600 Pro with a 9800 Pro and my system temps seem to
have gone up 4-5 degrees.  Query: is this because a.) the 9800 puts out
more heat so the temps rise, b.) when I put the card in I jumbled up the
cables inside the case screwing up the air flow,  c.)  a ...

I read in a post about the Hauppauge
WinTV PVR 350
being a waste of money (video out feature) when
compared to the 250, (no video out). I'm about to buy one or the other and

Just wondering everyone's opinion/advice: What's the best Catalyst drivers
to use with a Radeon 9100?
(This card is really made by Sapphire, not ATi itself.) It's 128MB, 4xAGP on
XP Pro PC with 1 GB DDR RAM.

I have a 9800Pro and when it is checked for media content it says it is not
MMX compliant and will not give full media output. Is this true? What can I
do?

Right i need to a graphics card my 9200 isn't good enough
for my athlon 64 3200+ , so i was gonna get a 6800 ultra but am i better off
getting a X800??? ...does it have any advantages??
Groover!

Which card is better, the Sapphire Radeon 9600SE or the Geforce Ti4200, both
with 128MB ramm?

Over the last 6 to 7 years, I have upgraded through 98 to ME to XP,
through ATI AIW Rage 128 to AIW Radeon 8500 and have been able to
capture videos in AVI format with ME and XP, with the Rage card as
well as the Radeon Card, with the pre-Catalyst as well as some of the

I bought a ATI radeon 9800 regular card a while back new at the store
and just recently noticed running 3d mark 2001, that it recognizes
this as a 9800 pro.  So i checked my windows device manager and this
also reads this as a 9800 pro.  So then I checked the box it came in,

I have 9700pro Radeon 128ddr 256Bit   Need extra power cable

But, if I try to plugin a harddisk or somting els,
then I have a black screen ,the Videocard will not startup.

I am having problems configuring my AIW 9000 to display two monitors.  I
have a 19" Viewsonic LCD (running 1280x1024) which I would like to be the
primary and I would like to use a KDS LCD (max 1024x780).  The main purpose
is to put the TV window on the secondary monitor.  I am ...

I've always had problems with my setup and my sapphire radeon 9800 pro
128 when it came to 3D, etc. I could never get any catalyst drivers
beyond 3.9 to work for me, and if I even attempted to play games for
more than half an hour to an hour, the game would freeze- either with

Ok, I've tried every setting I have in the driver applet for opengl, and
I constantly see texture corruption/flickering (with colors, bits of
textures, etc.).  I know ATI's implementation of OGL does *not* rule,
never did.  But surely it can run even old Q3A 1.32 'cleanly'?  I do ...
