Steve, I am wondering what you are using for drivers without this package for OS9? I guess the stuff in OS 9 will run the card? Below is a link for the original files no longer available from ATI. They have replaced with a new file of the same name and dated Feb 24,03 One guy said it still works but the flashed cards run slower???

It wasn't until Jaguar and I got my old Epson printer working that I was able to make the switch to daily use. So since last labor day Sept 02 OSX has been my main OS. It does take a while to get things the way you like them and to get used to the way it works and trouble shooting is a new ball game . I now love it. So much software available for free or nearly free. I am no longer using my PC for Video but do everything on my Mac. This wasn't possible in OS 9.x Some software either wasn't available or cost way too much. Modems are the only serial port hardware which run in OSX. Work fine for ISP dialup not sure about what you want to use it for. > All ati and clone video cards that work with our machines use DDR > Video ram.

My ATTBI braodband which was just bought by Comcast no longer lets me send an email file this big! apox 7mb is the new limit. I just found out yesterday when trying to send this file. Would have to be sent by ftp or? http://maczone.free.fr/ati/radeon-0210.hqx It is the best drivers for OS 9 and the ATI and clone Radeon 7000 files. Installs in OSX but the files in OSX 10.2.4 are newer & quicker for OSX. later Will S -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
