ATI 5200 old drivers

#1 Post by ennma » Mon May 28, 2007 10:15 am

Hi Guys/Gals,
I have just updated my 5200 ATI to the latest driver, and not really happy with the result, mainly the heat issue. I want to go back to the previous version of the driver, but I do not have it anymore, I checked.
I need help and advice as to where I can retrieve or download the older versions of the drivers, I have checked with ati, and the oldest driver they have is that of this year. I was happy with the driver that was before this year , 2004 2006.

anyone experience this before?

edit: I have found the old drivers, they were in ATI website linked
through a pdf here it is if anyone is interested

or you could've just rolled back to the previous ones.

well the thing is I tried uninstalling the catalyst driver once I rolled back, because it was not responding anymore to the old driver.
Unfortunately I un-instaled everything, so no more old driver.
Thats why I was asking for some old drivers from the forum.
the one on the list was not the ones I was looking for but they would do.

Thanks
