When I bought my NEW computer last 2005 Nov. I thought I would treat myself to a decent graphic card so that we could play games without the hassle.
NEW Computer: Pentium 4. 3.0gHz, 512 ram. Windows ME
NEW Graphic card. (Box says LINK3D)
Card = CP Technology Co Ltd.
MOBILITY/RADEON 9200/9250
128mb.
It came with a CD which self installs the correct driver for my OS. (?)
BUT having bought an relatively old game for Christmas, (Call of Duty), I was very disappointed that it wouldn't play. The graphics are all spikey across the screen and I cannot make anything out.
SO, I contacted Activision and spoke with a really nice chap, who suggested that it be a problem with the driver. Also, Mobility suggests a Laptop, which I do not have.
Along I troll to ATI's site and post of a ticket. Got a reply which tells me to find out what card I actually have. On the control panel for the card it clearly states MOBILITY/RADEON. So far since reposting the answer back to ATI they have not responded.
You are my last hope before I sell the card......
If you are familiar with these, you might also know that they use CATALYST for some part of the driver. But when I run the download to install it says I do not have the required Hardware?? or doah !!
Also, I am not sure if I uninstalled the generic driver which is for the onboad graphic chip. I did find S3 stuff, which I dumped, then dumped the Radeon driver, got back to a failsafe screen, then reloaded the Radeon stuff. Everything seemed to be OK, except when it went to standby, it upset the desktop when it came back to life.

SO what do I want?
1/ To know what my card actually is
2/ A driver that will make this game work.
Coffee time......
