Hi

I have a friend of mine who can't play games because he has a Savage 3D card
and theres no 3rd party drivers for Direct3D, OpenGL etc. Where can I find
some 3rd party XP drivers for this card?

Sim

Hi Sim,

Have you friend try this site: http://www.s3graphics.com/DRVVIEW.HTM
which I got from: http://mvps.org/nibblesnbits/Video.html - Good luck! :-)

P.S.: Your friend should buy an inexpensive card like the Ti4200.

Simeon,

Have your friend try the OMEGA drivers site from the 2nd
link I posted, and also try http://www.guru3d.com/

I've suggested that but I'm sure my friend will be happy to test any 3rd
party Savage3D driver in beta stage if anyones programming one.
