ATI drivers with "Powered By" cards?
Is there any reason ATI has "ATI" drivers, and "Powered By" drivers?
Do the Catalyst drivers care either way? Any options lost? I have a VisionTek 9500Pro, and was wondering if the "ATI" driver would cause any problems.

In ,
Sept1967 felt the need to put finger to keyboard and typed: Is there any reason ATI has "ATI" drivers, and "Powered By" drivers? You'd have to ask ATi ;o) Do the Catalyst drivers care either way? Any options lost? Nope, and not that I am aware of. I have a VisionTek 9500Pro, and was wondering if the "ATI" driver would cause any problems. I use the normal Cat's with a Crucial Radeon 9700 Pro and a Sapphire Radeon 9600, both work perfectly with them. HTH -- Regards, Stephen remove theobvious to reply ;o)

They will not, however, necessarily work with Mobility chips; Omegadriver's tweaked versions, however, apparently will. Optional software (MMC etc) does not necessarily work with all ATi Radeon cards. patrickp
