Bâshrat the Sneaky, sorry I took so long to update you on this issue - just too busy. I tried early this morning the latest driverpacks with the latest driverpack base 5.117 and have exactly the same results on three different systems. I still used the method 2, G, No do not keep drivers method and used all the official driverpacks available. This yields me with the correct drivers installed (Matrox G450, G550 or Parhelia 128MB), but without the Control Panels installed. Is it worth trying an install with saying Y to Keep the drivers, or any other recommendations or workarounds? This is a show stopper for me with these video cards, hope we can track down what is going wrong. Thanks for all your time and effort with these packs and with my little problem. Cheers!
