First off, welcome aboard ...

Secondly, I just noticed on Matrox' drivers page that the G450/550 drivers for Win2k & XP carry exactly the same revision number (5.71.014) as the lastest beta drivers for the G400 (MAX), thus chances are good, that they will run under XP as well.

Anybody tested those already fro a G400 under XP ?

yeah im using them beta 2k drivers and they are fine - just wish g400 would get xp drivers when the other 2 cards get em....

Well, then be advised that this is the very wrong place to rant about Matrox' decisions/philosophy, simply because this is a private forum from/for private people that use Matrox hardware.

Go to Matrox' own forum instead, since it is very annoying having to deal with people that want to address something at Matrox in here.

We are not Matrox.

and it's not your time that's critical here... it's Matrox's time. You should see something on the 26th, but that is in the Eastern Standard Time zone and can be as late as a minute before midnight.

OK then I will wait. Not a big deal just funny that everything else works fine (UT, Dualhead, etc...)

Though someone might know of what it could be or a possible fix.\

I'll have to wait un til 12:01 Oct 26th.

On a more pratical note i'll just play UT instead of CS.

Let's see... my XP clock says about 22 hours left for release, so it must be about 16 hours in Australia.
Edit: No it isn't, just checked with someone in the USA, and it's totally American time till release. Add at least 24 hours to 4 weeks to that time for wherever you are for full release of WinXP, and add whatever time Greebe tells you to that clock for Matrox drivers unEdit.

Anyway, check it on your own left in your own browser, and then even think it might be American time saying that Tapek.

Helping Greebe before he goes totally mad on the blasted Australian minis
