    Thanks Greebe

    As I'm new to SiS, do we get release notes anywhere?

          Ah well messing round installing linux on another drive on my Computer so I've got to back up before I do that so that will be a good time to try out the driver under xp and Me as well.

            Well, this driver isn't as big a deal as the VIA 4-in-1's are.

            In general, for Win2k/WinXP you get the AGP gart (MS already has an "acceptable" version in WinXP itself) and the USB patch (which will only install itself in memory if you have one of the problematic USB implementations, otherwise it just checks the driver settings at boot time and unloads).

            Win98/ME users might get more or less stuff, not entirely sure. There seems to be an awful lot of extra stuff in there, but those two things I listed are all you get for 2k/XP... at least with the "current" chipsets.

              You can also only manually install the AGP drivers via the device manager if you don't trust the Sis setup.

                      Well that went on without probs. It would be nice to know what fixes it does though.
