  • G2+/G200: help finding driver

    Hi, I need some help with a Matrox card I've got in my PC from work. My IT guys have not been much help so I thought I'd come here and try. The previous video card in my PC died, so they installed the one I have currently (the "white sticker" says: G2+/MSDA/8BC/20). The problem is that when they installed the card they only installed a general driver for it that only displays 16 colours and 640x480 resolution. Now, how useful is that?

    Anyway, I opened the case and found the white sticker (G2+/MSDA/8BC/20) which, the Matrox site says, will tell me what the card is (so I can download the correct driver for it):

    Chipset Card Name
    G45+ G450
    G4+ G400
    G2+ G200
    G+ Productiva G100
    MIL2 Millennium II
    MY220 Mystique 220
    MYST Mystique
    MIL Millennium

    Chip Specs Card Name
    1064 Mystique
    1164 Mystique 220
    2064 Millennium
    2164 Millennium II

    Model Number Card Name
    MILA G45+ Millennium G450
    MILA G4+ Millennium G400
    MARV G4+ Marvel G400-TV
    MILA G2+ Millennium G200
    MYSA G2+ Mystique G200
    MGA-G200 MGA-G200
    G100 Productiva G100

    From this list I gather that I have a G200 card (am I correct?).

    Q1. Is it a plain G200 (if there is such a thing), or a Marvel G200, or a Millenium G200, or a Mystique G200 or a MGA G200?
    Q2. What I also can't figure out from the Matrox site is which driver I should download for use on a Win 95 system?

    Can someone help out a non-techie, please?

    Thanks in advance,
    Mark

    That's a regular G200, 8meg SDRAM, bulk card.
    The standard G200 drivers from Matrox's site should work fine on it.
    Core2 Duo E7500 2.93, Asus P5Q Pro Turbo, 4gig 1066 DDR2, 1gig Asus ENGTS250, SB X-Fi Gamer ,WD Caviar Black 1tb, Plextor PX-880SA, Dual Samsung 2494s
