so i bought a Radeon 9800 pro
before i was a happy NVidia user with no probs

first i deinstalled all Nvidia Graphic driver
and some NVFiles for Driver
then i wanted to install the Cat 4.3

mhhhh....only 16 colours
after restart, the same, only 16 colours
then i tried the Omega (4.2), these i could install and they worked with 1024x768x32bit

then i wanted to upgrade the resolution
pöhhhh....i didn´t work
the desktop was in higher resolution but my monitor was in 1024x768

then i wanted to try the Cat 4.3
pöhhh....i couldn´t install
i had to install these drivers in the "VGA MODUS" !!!
i had NEVER those probs with NVidia !

then the same prob with the resolution
after hours i chatted to Mertsch
then i found out, that the ATI Driver detects my Monitor at a resolution of 1024 because it´s a 17"
ok, but i want a 1280x1024 res

so then i tried to write these numbers in the driver for my Monitor
pööhhh---didn´t work
again after hours, i don´t know who, it worked
i could upgrade my monitor and desktop to 1280x1024
wow...i was happy
and now....all games run at 60hz.....
AHHHhHHH

ok now i installed Refresh Force....i hope it works
NVidia has the same prob, ok, but they include this Refresh Force Future in their Driver....better Job :-)


i think it´s only the beginning of my ATI Driver SAGA.....
tooo bad....
if the drivers wouldn´t go better, then my first ATI is my last ATI !
