Simple Driver Question, I hope....

#1 Post by Guitarstar » Tue Sep 13, 2005 10:20 am

Is the video driver that comes with XP Pro the lastest out there for the Trident 3D Cyber9397 ? I'm having some video problems some software I would really like to run and would like to make sure I have the most recent video driver that will work with this card.

XP Reports :

Bios PEI 6.0.0 (96)
Driver 6-6-2001
5.1.2001.0

Thanks for any help

Run that sucker through windows update.
Be sure to select "custom" and install ALL updates.

Regards.

P.s. I play electric guitar. "B.C. RICH worlock bronze series guitar".

I download and install all of the updates whenever they are ready, I'm just concerned that the MS-XP driver is just some generic thing that doesn't take full advantage of the cards abilities as it should. The utility that comes with DirectX-9 says the card doesn't support Direct3D, but the card is a Trident "3D" Cyber9397 ?
