Device manager issue
Hello,
Ive had this issue crop up the last 3 times I reinstalled my system. After a reformat I install omega and or ati drivers and get a unknown device in the manager. It says : on all in wonder X800 series (Omega 3.
Display Adapters has the 2 references to the X800 as its supposed to. Everything seems fine except for the Unknown device. What am I missing?
Thanks

Omega drivers do not include the WDM files for the version of drivers you're using. You need to download the WDM drivers from AMD/ATI and install them. That should resolve the Unknown Device message in Device Manager.

Thanks for the quick answers. I want to make sure Im clear on your instructions. First off the link doesnt take me to the drivers. 
Am I supposed to dump the Omega and install the Catalyst Software Suite 7.1 ?

It is the right link, but ATI has anti-leeching on their site, so you can't direct link to files.
