X1950 Pro AGP best drivers?
I am about to install an X1950 Pro AGP 512MB Sapphire card and was hoping to get advice from DH members as to which driver might be best over all for the card?
Many Thanks!  -Pete |

The reason being CD's?
Also i assume setting the AGP Aperture size in the BIOS to 256MB is advisable?

The reason for that, is because i haven't updated drivers since i installed the card. i typically update drivers whenever i reformat my machine.
i do run my card at 256Mb aperture in BIOS as well. no real reason other than "i just do".

Ok thanks. I resolved a couple of issues in the ATi event error logs after installing using the 7.7 Cat's through Googling and wondered if anyone had seen/rectified these others?

Do you actually have any problems with the CCC? These Event Log entries are just "information", not "error".
Anyway I don't know how to fix them, the only advice I can give you on this is: Get rid of the CCC and use ATT instead. |
