Sager 5680 - Omega, Video Problem - Fix

vladin_2003 · Apr 14, 2005, 02:30 PM

I read thread after thread about this problem. I would add/remove all ATI software then use Driver Cleaner to remove everything left over. Install the new drivers from Omega (Radeon Omega Drivers 2.6.12 (Catalyst 5.2)). Video always locked up my system. Didnt matter what kind of video file. But 3D games played much much better

I just got the an update Bios from Sager Tech which brough my Bios version up to 1.00.10s. I've then reinstalled the Omega 2.6.12 drivers and have had not problems. Video plays great, Games play great. If anyone is having problems email me and I'll send you the bios update and I'll also include a bios bootdisk image.
