I installed those drivers first from the CD that came with
Radeon, as I thought the drivers weren't near latest and
Control Panel identified them as Catalysts version 3.6!
And Thief3 really ran completely fine without graphical
glitches with those drivers installed, perhaps someone else
could confirm this too? If you don't believe me, try
Cat3.6's yourself
Now I'm using Cat4.4 because CoD had some strange
crashing disease with Cat3.6 and Thief3 prevents me from
updating straight to the latest 4.7... geez I am going nuts
because of these ATI drivers, NVidia's drivers at least
WORKED goddamnit!
Still do............after the driver hiatus between
53.03 ( 9 Dec 2003) and 56.72 ( latest official, 1 April 2004)
The ones between are best forgotten. nVidia did a run-time
compiler update after 53.03 that broke a lot of stuff, but
seem to have got it all back together again with 56.72.
Very stable indeed. Unlikely to be OFFICIALLY updated
until some of the new 6800 stuff is properly integrated.
The 6800 is surviving on beta Detonator drivers at the
moment, which nVidia has seen prudent not to officially
foist on the rest of their graphics-card families. Of course,
the beta 6800 drivers have been leaked and tried out
on non-6800 cards.
