Thanks Kony,

I suppose it's a matter of reading up on the history of graphics boards
for that company as I'd have thought that one named driver (Detonator)
wouldn't work with a driver of another name.

Let's see what happens!

I've been able to access their ftp site, but logging in with annonymous
and my email address doesn't work.

If you want to play with this....

ftp://ftp.chaintech.com.tw/

If you wanted that particular one, take the link that fails, and
feed it to web.archive.org

http://web.archive.org/*/http://www.chaintech.com.tw/tw/download/FILES/AGP/nVidia/G42730W9X.exe

There is also a driver archive here, on the Nvidia web site.
