9800 pro...questions ?? Omega

Hello everyone. I just got a 9800 pro

Installed no problem and tried it out in Falcon4. It made no difference to frame rates and it didn't look any better either. I was using an old Asus V9180 Series Magic with the 52.16 driver that was released in December. It worked OK and with that new driver my frames jumped up to around 50 fps in "instant action" my own personal "bench mark". With the new card in I was thinking of a big jump. I didn't change anything in the F4 setup either.

I put in the latest Omega drivers and haven't seen any inprovements either. BTW with the Omega install after robooting it is supposed to do a test that takes a minute or so. I didn't see this happen and don't know how to check and see if it did in deed test anything.

So what's up ? This doesn't make any sence to me. Any thoughts.

Thanks

Mike
