Huh? are you talking about the W2K drivers? Coz I can't see any new 5.10 drivers (ok, date is 19-06, but size is still 2.xMB)

Where are the new ones?

[Dilitante1]

OK big boy, how 'bout a link?

They are the w9x drivers.

[andrei]

They are the 9x drivers, but the question still remains, why are they 4mb since they do not include g200 drivers ?

[Rags]

Ummm, they do have G200 drivers in them.

Doh that should teach me to carefully read threads, went past ski's post.
So I just downloaded the same drivers again ? (guess I deserve it)

[Compton]

oh hell yeah!! finally G200 drivers!! woohoo!!


i'll let everyone know how badly they fubar my system

[Compton]

I can't believe this. The new G200 drivers kick ass! The Via issue has finally been solved. But matrox would rather you buy a G400 than have working G200 drivers so they stripped the G200 entries out of the INF file. Just refer to an earlier INF to fix it.

I downloaded the 2.8 meg file and i'm not feeling like downloading the 4.0 meg one since i am no longer near a fast connection..

I'm just wondering how i can install turbogl since I installed the drivers before I installed quake 3. Can anyone help me? I heard all you have to do is go to powerdesk, but nothing there. Did this change in the new 4 meg release?

thanks guys

[JesTa784]

Sorry guys.. i just found it.. my eyes must be going bad.. haha

But now i just problems where i can't see anything except a big white flashing screen.... know any solutions?

thanks again!

That's weird. I dropped from 941 (PII/400, G200) to 892 in 3DMark2K default. I went from PD 5.41+5.30 hybrid to 6.00.
