| 538822 | 2007-04-07 08:40:00 | I recently purchased a "GIGABYTE GV-R955128D RADEON 9550 AGP" card for my PC from TradeMe.co.nz. It didnt come in a box and had no CDs with it. I have downloaded drivers off the internet so its all go, but i'm just curious to know if im using the right driver or not. Could someone tell me where to find the correct driver on the web please and also if anyone knows what would have been on the CD if i had bought it from a shop that'd be cool too. I want to know if there were any cool utilities on the CD or not! Cheers. |

| 538823 | 2007-04-07 08:57:00 | Did u get them from here (ati.amd.com) Thats if ur using XP 32 bit Home or Pro. Dont forget to install .NET framework 2 FIRST, or they wont work properly |

| 538825 | 2007-04-07 09:05:00 | Yeah i tried d/ling that catalyst software suite but when i installed it some of the things wouldnt work! Said something about .NET framework or something! Dude, im a noob man, i dont know what .NET framework is!!!!! LOL anyway i got another driver from some random site and its working!! Is this a bad idea??? | springa886 (10558) | ||
| 538826 | 2007-04-07 09:12:00 | For the Catalist Drivers you need .net framework Get it from here (www.microsoft.com) Install the .Net framework before you install your driver. This way you will be able to have the latest driver which is best |

| 538827 | 2007-04-07 09:14:00 | I would get .Net Framework 1.1 (www.microsoft.com) and 2 (www.microsoft.com) Install 1.1 then its updates then 2. Then its updates, before u install the ATI drivers if u use them. You can go to the Windowsupdate site and do a scan....for the updates. Up to you, if u want to use whatever you're using. Whether theyre the right ones, or whether or not they'll give u the right options etc. |

| 538828 | 2007-04-07 09:18:00 | If I do install the ATI drivers, what should I do about the ones im using now? How do i delete them? Ill try that .net framework install and see what happens. | springa886 (10558) | ||
| 538829 | 2007-04-07 09:24:00 | Just leave them and update them. Also Speedy why not get .Net Framework 3? I have 3 and have found it to be good... No problems? |

| 538830 | 2007-04-07 09:52:00 | I just d/led that .NET Framework 1.1 and HOLY SLOW D/L SPEED BATMAN!!! My D/L speed was running at 13KB\sec.... it was supposed to take like 20 mins, it almost took an hour!!! But thats a subject for a different thread. I dont know how to update the drivers im currently using, im just gunna install that Catalyst software suite over the top and hope it works!!! P.S Yeah, why not .Net 3?? Should i D/L that too? |
