hi can you please tell me how i go about getting such an update thanx .
i installed a newmotherboard( abit SG-95) socket 775 . and since then have been unable to run catalyst control centre or tv out with this card .
i have written to ati techs but all they have suggested does not work .
it is all very frustrating as i specifically got this card for windows vista ultimate and to watch movies on tv out .
thankyou in anticipation.

I had better vista exp. with Intel 950gma
I had been running a X300se from Ati and Dell which came in my Dimension E510. I knew I had a Intel 950gma on the mother board. When I installed Vista Premium I noticed a lot of lag in scrolling and when dragging windows around with the x300se. So I cranked up the Intel GPU and it was much better. I have ordered a MSI X1550 with 128mb on board and 512mb with computer memory.
I am using a P4 Hyper 3.0 Ghz and will see how the MSI stacks up against the Intel. It should be no contests? But Intel has really surprised me how they have managed to tweak their chips to work well in 2D and even some non Gaming 3D. Of course games have always tweaked to ATI and Nvidia cards.
But I think Intel is at least providing a good desktop chip for everyday tasks.
