The 3.10 drivers from ATI havent worked very well for me, games such as WHo wants to be a millionair(wifes game) just get a black screen... luckly the omega 3.10's work just fine. Mobius, if you check the list of games you list there, d3 is the only open-gl game. the rest are d3d, and as i stated ab...

I've used 3.5 on up and have had no luck.... I remember way back last year that it was stated that opengl was broken if 16 bit color was used in games(and of course d3 defaults to that)but suppodedly it was fixed. Over at rage 3d, from what i have read, there seems to still be major issues with anti...

no even the 9700 dont have enough power to run d3d, and if you have ever used it you would notice that every few seconds the game will choke. I pointed this out while the 1.4 patch was being made but it was found to be a major bug with the d3d part of the 3d engine and will never be fixed(this is mu...

I have a v5 on my p3 733 and it plays just fine but when i put the v5 in my faster machine(1.1 gig anthlon) and have vsync on, you cant aim with massdriver because the control gets very sloppy. You can see the diffr...
