  • Which drivers are the best for the Matrox Parhelia?

    I will be getting my card in a day or two. I just wanted to know which drivers are the best at the moment in terms of speed and stability.

    I think when you get a Matrox card, you are usually best set with the latest drivers, especially for the P.
    I downloaded the latest drivers released two days ago, haven't tested much yet but I think they will run fine.
    Specs:
    MSI 745 Ultra :: AMD Athlon XP 2000+ :: 1024 MB PC-266 DDR-RAM :: HIS Radeon 9700 (Catalyst 3.1) :: Creative Soundblaster Live! 1024 :: Pioneer DVD-106S :: Western Digital WD800BB :: IBM IC35L040AVVN07

      Can you tell me the latest driver version for WinXP?
