Sure enough, as previously reported, Radeon cards older than the HD 2xxx
series have been dropped from the support list.

Where are the legacy drivers (say Radeon 9000 pro and X1300)?

I had a few issues with the install of the 9.4 on a 4870X2 vista 64. It
would not recognize the card after installing. First install failed, final
install, monitor went black, I reset the PC, and on reboot the driver was
present, with device manager seeing the card.

Did you remove the old driver COMPLETELY first?

Yep, uninstalled, then ran drivercleaner twice.

That's really not necessary any more. I used to (meaning with every single
Catalyst update from version 5.x to 8.x) meticulously clean out the old
driver, registry, reboot before installing the new one. It was probably
necessary at the time. Starting with the latest 8's all the way up to 9.3
using both XP-32 and Vista-64 I have never, not once, uninstalled the old
drivers before installing the new. I have not seen one installation artifact
as a result of that. What I have seen is a lot less hassle in Cat driver
updates.

Your mileage may vary, of course.

Tony
