G400-TV drivers - Do they exist?

[McKiltie]

Can anyone advise an old dog trying to learn new tricks? I have been trying for days to download the new G400-TV drivers. I make contact with the download site then nothing. Has anyone actually downloaded theres drivers. (Do they actually exist?) Thanks in advance, David in Scotland

Which drivers? Which download site? Which URL?

Ant,

Thanks for you interest.

The two drivers I am attempting to down load are the new Windows 2000 display driver 5.39.019 (4.07MB) and Video Tools 2.04.015 (18MB) for the Marvel G400.

I have tried to get the download by two different routes. Firstly I chased down the two drivers by following the links coming from MatroxUsers by clicking on the individual drivers name. I believe you reported these new drivers on 12th July.

I also went directly to http://www.matrox.com/mga/support/dr...atest/home.cfm
and accepted the various conditions.

The URL I have on file are as follows:-

ftp://ftp.matrox.com/pub/mga/archive...1/w2kvt204.exe

ftp://ftp.matrox.com/pub/mga/archive...01/w2k_539.exe

I get to the stage where the download reports “connected, requesting file…” At this stage I just sit for a long time and nothing happens.

I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks, David.

Ant, My problems are over. I have now downloaded the two driver files.

I have been using GetRight as my download manager for some time and find it very useful. Today I thought I would close down GetRight and try and download the files. They came down with ease. I went back and ran GetRight and tried to do the download. I got my original problem of not being able to get the two files. My problem was with GetRight and not Matrox.

The strand thing is that I have used GetRight with success during the period I was trying to get the two drivers. All very strange.

However, this problem has introduced me to the world of the Forum. All the best and thanks again. David in sunny Scotland.
