FireGL - Windows Update Driver or IBM Supplied?

#1 Post by asiafish » Wed Mar 23, 2005 11:41 pm

Hello,

I just got my T42p today and when I ran Windows update, it offered a newer ATI FireGL T2 video driver. Should I update my driver to the one on Windows Update, or keep the one that IBM supplied with the computer? I want to use it for games mostly, so whichever is fastest for gaming would be best for me.

I'll stick with the IBM then, thanks.
