5.20 drivers with Mystique G200

[garyc]

Installed 5.20 drivers and their was no Mystique G200 in the list. I used G200
Millennium. Was it left out for a reason?

I see, but I'd give the 5.25s a shot.

But, should not the G200 Mystique be included
in the list, they have the G250 Mystique.

G250? Never heard of it. Must be a typo. Why not try the 5.25 drivers that Matrox expects you to use rather than the dumbed down and/or out of date 5.20 drivers that Microsoft has tested?
Download both, use 5.25 but have the uninstall and 5.20 install programs expanded and ready to use in their own folders on your C: drive in case you have problems. Be sure to have the G200's bios updated to the latest version (2.6) too.
Many companies ignore this Microsoft approved stuff. I've used two versions of Creative Labs AWE32 cards and a Live Full and can't recall ever seeing MS WHQL versions offered at all.

Happy trails,

The G250s are the G200 in .25 micron fab-process and a.f.a.i.k. clocked higher than the older G200s.

If you like, you could name 'em as G200 MAX

According to the Matrox site, the G250 is a
OEM souped up version of the G200

5.20 is the latest MS WHQL drivers and
came out later than 5.25
