Installing Omega Driver Correctly

SnideKid718

Anyone can tell me what the correct/best option I should use when installing the omega drivers on my system.

I have a 9500PRO with Modded BIOS (so overclocking is possible)

I've been using the DNA Drivers but I decided that with a clean install of XP I want 2 try something new all acroos da board.

Anyway I herd about Omega, blah blah blah

Should I use 9500 Mod Omega Drivers or is that only for the NON PRO 9500 Cards. Just want to make sure. It's not that clear in the installer.


Is it different drivers or same drivers with overclock auto enabled.

If your bios is modded just install the regular Omega's drivers. You may want to wait since the new ones should be ready anytime

Important Notes:
1. If you are using an Omega soft-mod and you are experiencing crashes, black
screens, artifacts or the "check board effect" during game play, run the new
included Driver Swapper utility and select the Normal driver, the reason is
that your card is not accepting the soft-mod due to broken/incompatible
hardware.
**************

REMINDERS:
1- If you have the normal ATI drivers installed, uninstall the ATI Control Panel
BEFORE upgrading to these drivers, the Omega Drivers already have the CP
integrated and another CP will cause conflicts or other problems.

2- There is no need to uninstall ANY previous drivers (ATI or OMEGA) when
installing these, the new ones will overwrite any previous settings, but if
you still want to uninstall them completely, is ok.

3- In Windows 2k/XP, ALWAYS disable DDC in the ATI "Displays/Monitor" CP after
installing drivers to be able to use ALL the refresh rates and resolutions
your monitor supports, also this is the best way to avoid the 60Hz RR bug.

4- The WDM drivers for VIVO and AIW cards are not included, but they can be
downloaded separately from a link in my drivers page.

5- The Radeon cards do support FastWrites and they will work with it on
(on some machines), but it is not recommended, there is NO SPEED gain
when using FW, and this option will affect your PC's stability a LOT,
most game crashes and problems are because FW is enabled.

6- Install the included Multires utility to have access to ALL the available
resolutions in the Omega Drivers, standard Windows doesn't show all of them.

7- Always uninstall the previous version of RadLinker before installing the new
one included in the latest Omega Drivers.
