More info?)
I assume the card is compatible with XP, I don't have the box right now but
the offer drivers for XP. I didn't get this specific problem with the
previous drivers and software ATI offered but I had plenty of others. I
believe ATI MMC was version 8.5 before. After posting this I dicked with
microsoft for an hour and a half on the phone, after several emails that
didn't have the attachments that were supposed to be there or they had the
incorrect email address. Any how I finally got the email and extracted
everything, I already have SP2 so the file for SP1 was junk, the next file
had stream.pbd. That was all I got, no instructions or anything else, I
renamed it as stream.sys like the file that I guess is FUBAR and replaced the
original (I show several on my system:C:\WINDOWS\Driver Cache\i386\sp2.cab,
there's a couple under Program Files\Mediator 7, I replace the the one in
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers) . After reboot the original was back. Does
anyone know what I need to do?
