OMEGADRIVE WRITES:

This are my "optimized" drivers for the ATI Radeon family of video cards, this version (Omega 2.2.18) is for Windows 2000 and Windows XP.

Special note:
THESE DRIVERS ARE MADE FOR GAMES, NOT BENCHMARKS!!! THEY FIX GRAPHICAL ERRORS, STABILITY PROBLEMS AND SOME SPEED ISSUES ONLY IN GAMES. THEY ADD VISUAL QUALITY, STABILITY AND MORE OPTIONS. IF YOU WANT DRIVERS FOR BENCHMARKS DOWNLOAD ATI'S ORIGINAL DRIVERS INSTEAD FOR 3DMARK2K1 AND OTHER BENCHMARKS.

New (Omega 2.2.18)
* After a long time out of the 2k/XP drivers, I'M BACK!!!
* Based on the leaked 6218 drivers from Saphiretech (Catalyst 2.5).
* Mixed BOTH Windows + the control panel + all language files in one small package.
* Added a new resolution, 1200x900, and like the other "special" resolutions, is only avaiable in one refresh rate setting.
* Now you can choose between 75Hz, 85Hz and 100Hz in the "special" resolutions during setup.
* Added more tweaks to the drivers to 5B4
* speed them up.
* Added a new PowerPlay option.
* Vsinc slider is now present in the ATI control panel if you want to force V-Sinc in D3D and OpenGL.
* Added the DX Override Refresh option in the ATI Displays Control Panel.
* Fixed Laptop support, now the drivers should install in ALL ATI Mobile cards.
* Shaved some MBs off the drivers by removing the WDM files plus the Control Panel setup files. (All languages still available)
* Very Important!!!
I have tested the drivers ONLY in Windows XP, not 2000 or any mobility cards, so if you use them on Windows 2k PC or a Mobility card, let me know the results. I made sure all settings for 2k and mobile cards where correct, but I'm human and can make mistakes. Again, let me know how it all goes in Win2k and/or Mobile cards by E-Mail or by posting the problem in Driverheaven forum. Thanks.
