i have the radeon 9600 pro 256 mb ddr card and i cant find any whql approved 64bit drivers for this thing.here is a list of drivers i have tried
DNA DRIVER 2.2.4.3(NOT FUTUREMARKED APPROVED)
ATI BETA 2 64BIT(NOT FUTUREMARK APPROVED)
DNA DRIVER 2.5.4.5a (NOT FUTUREMARK APPROVED)
ATI 4.0.1 and ATI WINXP 64BIT (NOT FUTUREMARK APPROVED)

i have got to the point where i have thrown allsorts at it with no luck.i am running xp 64bit windows.this could be part of the prob.have run out of ideas - any suggestions?

i also found out that aquamark3 does not run on xp 64bit windows.that sux.
once i have eventually found the right driver(heres hoping) what would be a good tool for overclocking this card?

gigabyte k8ns ultra-939
athlon 3200@2.4ghz (winchester)
zalman 7000 hs/f
2x512ddr400 adata ram
seagate 120g 7200rpm

Yes.... it's your 64Bit OS

For future reference, you should always check that you can get drivers for your hardware before you install a new OS, otherwise you might find your hardware useless.

it seems like i will have to wait to see if ati bring out any whql drivers that are compatible with 64bit windows xp.i will have to run 3dmark03 etc and see what i get off line.

are there any progs like aquamark that will run on a 64bit os?
