ATi Rage Mobility M1 drivers?

AshG · Jun 22, 2002, 08:48 PM

Hey guys, I'm looking for the latest ATI drivers for a Compaq Presario 1200 with a Rage Mobility video chip. Windows Updates had an updated driver, which promplty proceeded to remove all functionality from the control panels (no more D3D/OGL). OS is Windows ME.

Might try Omegadrives Optimized 2942's for WinMe. They should work for all Radeon cards, including Mobility's.

oops sorry, i misread your post and now see it was a Rage Mobility and not Radeon.

Might give it a shot anyway.

How about you don't give that a try, the omega 2942 are for nVidia only.

Jeff · Jun 23, 2002, 08:11 PM

also, radeon drivers won't work on Rage chipsets.

Alan Allen · Jun 23, 2002, 08:14 PM

oops....sorry...obviously I missed the whole point here.

I got too many drivers sets in my head...waiting for Cyborg's 94's and also have nVidia on this desktop makes for confusion on my part!

Forget what Alan Allen said above, all you need to see is this page

Read it out carefully and remember to thanks the owner of the page, he makes an outstanding job and knows what he's talking about (a virtue not so common these days).
