Brand New T42p

#1 Post by GG-OnE » Tue Apr 05, 2005 11:25 am

I recieved my brand new t42p today. I have a question now: are there any different video drivers for the firegl t2? I would like to install "standard" drivers. So, do I have to install omega drivers to get a simple Radeon 9600?

There are 3 ways:

1)just load this tool

then u can install any Catalyst u want, just watch for the one with Catalyst Controll Center, because of the screen resolution.

2) Get the one from Omega or DNA

3)Just load the standard IBM FireGL Driver

have fun...I installed the Catalyst 5.3 on my T42p, works great!

edit: please don't prosecute me for misfitted drivers or errors occuring while setting up ;)
