Misha Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 Most of the time you are stuck with the oem drivers that came with your laptop. If it were a normal Radeon card you would of course pick Radeon, but because it is the mobility chipset that driver doesn't work. I have a Dell Inspiron 9600 and have to also use oem drivers.
hakeem5454 Posted August 2, 2005 Author Posted August 2, 2005 where do i get an omega driver?and whatt does it do..does it screw anything up?
big poppa pump Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 where do i get an omega driver?and whatt does it do..does it screw anything up?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Not to be harsh, but by judging from your posts, have you ever come across the term "Google" or "Search"????
ripken204 Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 the omega drivers are the best out for ati, they have pretty good tweaking and overclocking stuff tooheres the latest driverhttp://www.omegadrivers.net/ati/win2k_xp.php
HybridShadow Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 I use the Omega drivers, but i wouldnt recommend them for the 'average user' as the extras it comes with are advancedAs for the way they give out drivers at least when you find them they work/OFFTOPICI have searched EVERYWHERE (Google, driver guide) for drivers to get an nVidia Riva TN2 32mb AGP card workingnVidia have drivers and says it supported and for xp and yet i run the installer and it goes you arent using a supported card so i cant my d3d acceleration/OFFTOPICAnyway i didnt think that the omega drivers are 'meant' for mobile products?
ripken204 Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 what do u mean by average user, i dont/cant overclock mt laptop's gpu but i use omega b/c its the only way that i can update my driver
firefoxthebomb Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 just download the driver for the laptop manufacture, Toshiba you mentioned, go there and enter you model number and get the drive from them
