Win2k drivers release info?

[kewlcat]

This was posted on the microsoft.public.win2000.hardware forum today. Guess this means no release drivers till the end of the month, if not later.

Three new BETA drivers have been posted on our web site.

- driver 5.50.010 for Win 9x (supports MIll G4, Mill G2, Myst G2, MGA G2)
- driver 5.01.019 for Win 2k (supports MIll G4, Mill G2, Myst G2, MGA G2)
- driver 4.42.031 for Win NT4 (supports MIll G4, Mill G2, Myst G2, MGA G2)

Matrox will be posting a WHQL-certified driver for Windows 2000 within the
next two weeks.

All 3 drivers are available from the latest drivers page: http://www.matrox.com/mga/drivers/la...ivers/home.htm

Matrox latest beta for w2k is actually quite good and stable, at least we have beta to play with, look at Creative... no beta live wire for thier live sound cards until mid march.

Oh I'm happy with the Matrox driver support too for the most part. Still, once release drivers are out, I can actually bitch about the bugs and not be told "hey it's a beta, what did you expect?"

Speaking of Creative, they lost my respect once they started charging for LiveWare. At least they open-sourced their Linux driver stuff, that was a smart move on their part.

This are certified drivers, matrox always releases non certified drivers before certified in the past, don't see why they won't now.

In the mean time does anyone know how to make quake II use anything larger than 60hz monitor setting, the switch to 640x480 doesn't work. This is in win2K.
