Hello,

i've installed the newest Radeon Omega Driver, and now i have 3 questions:

1) On Ati Tray Tools there are normally 2 default profiles: "Best quality" and "best performance" - but they are gone - where are the profiles??
When installing ATT seperatly i can choose "default 3D profiles" - does Omega does not install that? How can i get these default 3d profiles now?? Shall i install Tray Tools again over existing Tray tools or can i just install default 3d Profiles?

2) I removed ATI Smart and ati2evxx from autostart, and now atiptaxx.exe ("ATI Control Panel") too. Theres no difference, when i start atiptaxx.exe manually it DOESNT show up in RUNNING PROCESSES and nothing happens! Why do i need atiptaxx.exe?

3) I have a PCI Graphic Card, and theres no need for SmartGart, is that right? Cause there is no Smargart Service under services.msc.

Can anyone explain this or can help me?

arent those profiles just all the quality options to their min & max? you could easily make your own

what if that exe runs off a service, that could explain it not appearing, but i'm not sure

as far as i know omegadrive modifies att to perfectly suit his changes to the ati display driver. its not recommended to install a standard att together with omega drivers or on top of it. like kn00tcn i recommend creating custom profiles to max out quality / performance independently for your 3d applications.

you don't need any of those for the display driver or att to work correctly. ati2evxx is part of the ati hotkey poller which enables some features i described here. atiptaxx is part of the ati control panel. its not recommended to use the control panel with the omega drivers. some of omegadrive's modifications to the driver could get overwritten by ati's defaults. use att instead for any changes.

smartgart is only needed when using agp cards. it checks if the gfx card is capable of some agp specific commands (agp speed, agp writes, agp reads, fast writes...) and uses them if possible.
