"Chaintech Desperado RIA2"
http://active-hardware.com/english/reviews/video/ria2.htm

I would never have guessed RIA2 was part of a product name.

Thanks a lot Paul,

Sadly, I think we've hit a dead end!

<http://www.3dgrafikkarten.de/drivers_e.php3?Hersteller=Chaintech>

Clicking on the Win9x entry for 'Desperado AGP-RIA2 (GeForce2 MX)' takes
you to an outdated URL but clicking on the URL stated in the page gets
you to the Chaintech more up-to-date home page. It states that all
archive downloads should use their previous and older site. The only
problem is that the browser cannot find any archives and searches on the
newer site use the older site with the obvious response.

I used their tech support page and will wait.

Thanks again Paul.


Richard.

You didn't want that driver anyway, it was bound to be very
old...

Go to http://www.nvidia.com and download the Detonator
driver (from the menu, "Graphics Driver", "Geforce and
TNT2", for your particular operating system). For example,
this is the current driver you'd want for WinXP,

Thanks a lot Lee for having a look!

Now, ( :-) ) click on the first board image, then on the next page click
on 'VGA Card Driver' to the right, then on the next page click on the
'NVIDIA VGA driver'. Select 'TAIWAN' the only download location and
then select the Windows 95/98/ME (or any version) and see if you get the
same result as me ?

I was turning into South Park's Cartman with the hissy fit I was going
into but I did email them to ask them why their archive pages are not
there. It would be interesting to find out if they actually do reply.
No wonder us Brit's are the worst at learning languages! I can't make
head nor tail of ???? or ???? or ???? ;-)

Let's see if DriverGuide.com has a copy ? No!



Richard.
