Thx for the headsup, Wolfram.
I'm still using the Cat5.9's (they work great for Il2/FB)...I wanna skip the 5.10's, and maybe the 5.11's too.,
Btw, I never have issues with updating drivers...always using just the CP, together with ATITool, which I use for setting PCI-latency.
But you have to do it the right way, which is uninstalling drivers 1st, and then your ATI-ControlPanel....both from your XP-ControlPanel/Add-Remove Programs.
Then you reboot, and go into safe mode, to start up
DriverCleanerPro.
Make sure to read the readme first, and nothing can go wrong.
DCP will remove EVERY trace of old drivers from your system.
Reboot again, and install the new drivers+CP.
