Well today was an update, and since rezzing in and such has been a particular problem for me, I thought I would find the time to check the tech support pages. I did this during the time the server was being updated, and was led to knowledge that a better graphics driver would help.

So I searched, and found that ATI and other card makers do not pursue updates for mombile platforms that often. Unfortunately for me, I went ahead and searched for a recent update I founf in a post. I downloaded a driver that is called Catalyst 6.5.

Noe my Graphics card is adeon 9000 mobile, and I followed the steps, however I will note that it could not find the file called adttixx.ini or something along those lines. I left it, and installed without that file (which was never included in the downloaded zip I gather.

I just wish I knew more about this stuff, honestly, anyways I wanted to post a picture of what I am reffering to, but I don't know how to either. Can anyonr offer advice on what the best configuration might be for me?

Hi Jayce,
Welcome to sl.
A driver that many people use here is from http://www.omegadrivers.net/
The driver is based on the current ati drivers and are tweaked by omegadrivers. They shall work with all radeon based graphics hardware. Allthough I havent used them myself on mobile hardware yet.
Regards,
Leff.

Hm, yeah, i did get one, but after i logged in, I couldn't see anything, it was like the whole region had been covered in thick fog. Kind of like something was loading, but it couldn't. That and about the end of the install, I got an error message that the driver was missing an INI file.
