ATI drivers with "Powered By" cards?

S

Sept1967

Is there any reason ATI has "ATI" drivers, and "Powered By" drivers?

Do the Catalyst drivers care either way? Any options lost?

I have a VisionTek 9500Pro, and was wondering if the "ATI" driver would
cause any problems.

You'd have to ask ATi ;o)

Nope, and not that I am aware of.

I use the normal Cat's with a Crucial Radeon 9700 Pro and a Sapphire Radeon
9600, both work perfectly with them.

The Catalyst drivers will work with any Radeon card, whether Built by or
Powered by. They will not, however, necessarily work with Mobility chips;
Omegadriver's tweaked versions, however, apparently will.

Optional software (MMC etc) does not necessarily work with all ATi Radeon
cards.

Hello folks
where do you get Omega drivers?
