    Is it ok to use ATI "Built by" Cat 2.3 drivers on a "Powered by" card (Sapphire Radeon 9000pro)?
    Many Thanks,
    Paul

    Phew!! What a relief - I had a major panic attack thinking that I might have problems if I didn't use Cat 2.3.

    Thanks fellas!

    The powered by drivers are essentially the same anyway.

    It worked a charm - the Cat 2.3 drivers for the 9000 are the exact same ones I used for my 7200 so I swapped over the cards, re-installed the drivers and it worked first time with no hassles!
