Parhelia driver version 1.02.02.03 ?

Is that a pre relased driver set?
Found it at the Matrox techsupp. forum......

You could get it easily too if you went over to the workstation section of drivers.

Hi Andy,
Ok I just wanted to make sure that those drivers didn't make it on our latest drivers page.

With those drivers we only offer support for the product they were intended for.

Says it all I think.

Ah.....nice
My question here was before Richard answered.....

1.02.02.03 or what we refer to as old drivers

[103er-Fan]

Edit:
Just got it, it seems like they just add support for Softimage...

Are they any better or worse than the 42's as I tried them and them seemed to be better in terms of quality I mean some of the FAA probs in NOLF 2 were less aparent yet I thought that the A filtering was worse ...

[Faramir1966]

Well...those drivers are newer........
1.02.00.42=non Workstation drivers
1.02.02.03=Workstation drivers
Date 11th November

I'm waiting for a reply on the Matrox forum but Richie did say earlier to me that they were not supported by Matrox and only for the application they were intended for(Andy being me )
So I suppose it is use at your own risk

[Faramir1966]

Yes,most likely.......
But if they work well,why not use them?

[Peter Aragon]

Old or not, it definately solves the BSOD issues with Terminal Services! That was a great annoyance.

Let's see what else it fixes

quick edit:
Found a little bug. When going to PDesk.NET -> Video Playback Settings -> Adjust video playback image (...) it will do DVDMax on the little preview after you move that preview window.

Greebe, check if that's fixed in your newer drivers

i guess it's just too late in the evening, but i really can't find the link to those drivers on big M's site... only link directs me to registration, but when i login there's no link?

edit: nevermind, mozilla wouldn't accept the download link...

[3dfx]

It did fix things but it also broke things ..lol remeber this driver was designed for a specific thing and that isn't gaming. I've gone back to the 42's as they are a lot faster on the whole and Ani filtering is much better. But I must admit that the FAA 16x appeared quite a bit better on these drivers

You probably should have put 'we' with italics too, Greebe, since you seem to feel that you are so special for belonging to the 'elite' group of beta-testers.
