Don't use the Omega drivers unless you have a problem with the standard

Why would you say this? The Omega drivers are better then the official
ones IMHO.

No, they're better for you, Pluvious, and also for many gamers -
that's what Omegadriver is basically optimising his drivers for. If
someone is not a latest-and-greatest gamer - I'm not, and you have no
reason for believing the OP is - there's no real advantage. I've
tried them on more than one occasion, sometimes keeping them on my
system for a while, but found no improvement over the standard
Catalyst drivers.

I would agree if you were to say they're probably better for gamers,
and I wouldn't deny Omegadriver makes a good product. However,
someone starting off using an Ati card is probably better off using
the standard Catalyst drivers and then trying Omega's ones if and when
ready.
