I'm not sure what to do... I want my system to be as clean and stable as possible. So which of these should I do? (CAT 4.7 is unstable on my system)

#1 - Just use new ogl file with CAT 4.6.

#2 - Run opengl beta 4.9 installer without uninstall CAT 4.6

#3 - Uninstall CAT 4.6, then install CAT 4.9 beta

Thanks for the help! My system specs are below:

* OS: Win XP Home SP1
* Directx 9.0B
* Processor: AMD FX-53
* Motherboard: Asus A8V Deluxe rev1.2
* Bios Rev: Version 1006
* VIA 4-in-1 Version 4.51
* VIA SATA Raid version 2.20D
* Memory: 1 Gig Kingston 3500 (433MHz)
* Video Card: ATI Radeon X800 Pro Cat 4.6
* Sound Card: SB Audigy 2 (latest non-beta drivers)
* Pioneer DVD-RW Drive
* Samsung SATA 120 Gig, 7200 rpm, (Model ST316002 3AS - Drive C)
* Seagate SATA 160 Gig, 7200 rpm, (Model ST3160023A - Drive D)
* Seagate ATA-133 160 Gig, 7200 rpm, (Model ST3160023A - Drive E)

If you're just looking for the new OGL in the 4.9B, extract the file from the ATI download, decompress the Atiogl file with WinZip, and replace this file in your system 32 folder while in safe mode. This is all you need to do for Doom3 as my scores from my different prove this.

Same score in the Demo 1 benchmark with entire 4.9B driver installed versus just replacing the OGL file. I personally like the D3D better with the 4.8s, but the 4.9 D3D have support for the geometry instancing in FarCry.
