Radeon 9800 & Windows NT 4.0
I have a multi-boot system and have Windows NT 4.0 SP6a installed on
one of the partitions. I'm planning to upgrade my video card to a model compatible with Vista Aero and am considering the Radeon 9800. ATI's support of NT 4.0 is a bit fuzzy around the edges. (OTOH, NVIDIA's support is clear.) The ATI web site's "Download & Software" menu contains a "Windows NT" link that leads to the following driver: Windows NT 4.0 Display Driver build 4.3.4013 7.70-020418M-003815C That driver claims support for the following Radeon models: ALL-IN-WONDER RADEON RADEON 8500 RADEON 7500 RADEON 7200 RADEON 7000 RADEON 64MB DDR RADEON 32MB DDR RADEON 32MB (SDR) RADEON VE The Release Notes, displayed via the link at the bottom of the page, contains the following information: A) SUPPORTED ATI PRODUCTS The display driver included in this package is for Microsoft Windows NT4. This driver may be used with ATI products based on the RADEON This suggests that the driver will work with _all_ Radeon models. Googling for info about the Radeon 9800 and Windows NT 4.0 came up empty. Does anyone know first-hand if an ATI driver is available for the Radeon 9800 under Windows NT 4.0 Workstation SP6a? I don't need the most recent driver package. I don't need multiscreen capability. I just need to be able to boot into the O/S and run at 1024 x 768, 32 bpp. regards, Andy -- ********** Please send e-mail to: usenet (dot) post (at) aaronoff (dot) com To identify everything that starts up with Windows, download "Silent Runners.vbs" at www.silentrunners.org ********** |
