I'm trying to setup up a benching hdd. Just put on Win2K SP4, DX 8.1, nF 5.10.
However, I can't install any GFX drivers :mad: I have an AGP X850XTPE.
So far I've tried CAT 5.1 and 5.2, same thing. After reboot, it's still in VGA mode like nothing happened. Anyone know WTH is going wrong? What am I supposed to do to get some stupid GFX drivers to install?!

Help appreciated :banana:

Problem solved, Kingpin came to the rescue :clap:
Just in case anyone else wants to know how to install Cat 5.1's on AGP X850 in Win2K, I will quote here:

Hey,
the fix is easy.....
install the newest cats or the ones off the cd, then do the following steps:
Go to install the 5.1's, but cancel right after it unpacks the file, don't actually install the driver. Then go into device manager and click on your video adapter and update driver. when it asks you, click "will choose driver to install" or whatever and point it to the file where the ati install unpacked the 5.1's. It will be in ati\support\"name of driver"

Install them disregarding any warnings and reboot and all is good.
