The only place you are going to find a driver for that card is at http://www.ati.com

Just select the "Find a driver" link from the left lower side.

well best 80 bucks I spent. turned reselution up and run 32 bit now locked at 60fps and holds 60fps. Much better game play

1 question though. I just installed it about a half hour ago and smell a electronics smell. Is this normal for a new card, Im also getting little lines on my screen now. Ill try to install the 30.82 drivers and does a guy need to reinstall dx9?

OMG what did I do lol. Ok heres the problems Im getting. I had a ATI card then went to a GF3Ti500 128mb card. I installed the 30.82 drivers. I think I smell something hot or I get this wierd electroins smell. I get lines across my screen like 1 in and 2inch lines all over sometimes. Any ideas ? Sometimes seems to work fine and other not so well. I have also get windows has recovered form a device failiure message.
