#56401 Posted on: 09/02/2004 06:04 PM That's ridiculous. Before you know it the driver itself will be made in C#. Earth to ATI: There are better ways to improve your drivers. Honest.

#56403 Posted on: 09/02/2004 07:00 PM It has a couple of minor problems. 1. It says my AMD64 3200+ cpu is an Intel Pentium 2. It says my cpu doesn't support MMX/3DNOW/SSE/SSE2/ I wonder if there are any other problems?

#56406 Posted on: 09/02/2004 09:02 PM Its ok. Doesnt really 'do' much more than the old one. Its just a nicer interface, better for noobs i suppose.

#56409 Posted on: 09/02/2004 09:58 PM Not bad...if you don't want it, don't install it. Seems like just a more user friendly version of the control panel, though. For someone who just bought a new computer or graphics card and is new to the whole host of options available, it's an easy way to tweak things without having to have someone more experienced tell you exactly what everything is. For all the flack this was getting, I think it's turned out nicely....and again, if you don't want it - don't install it.

#56410 Posted on: 09/02/2004 11:07 PM er, no they will not. all drivers will still be written in machine code as they are now.

#56425 Posted on: 09/03/2004 01:26 AM its not harder or easier for 'noobs' to figure out... they still have to know what the different settings are for.
