Are any of you using an ATI TV Wonder on Windows 2000?

I ran windows 2000 awhile ago and got no support for my tv wonder... ATI did release new drivers for this card, version 2.00, however i believe that was just to correct the overlay problem with some video cards (voodoo, tnt) Best I know,ATI is still snail mailing those drivers, they wouldn't post em on their page for "legal" reasons. If you're using a TV Wonder VE, it uses different drivers and if the retail drivers didn't work, i don't believe they have updates yet.

Just did a search of ATI's page and found that they plan to relase the beta 2000 drivers for all TV wonder products in september (yeah right) i suggest checking back in september.

hmmm...september...
of what year? :)

I have been checking their site for quite some time now (about a year) to see if they have any Windows 2000 drivers for it, and like you, to no avail. :-(

Thanks anyway though. I guess I was just silently hopeing someone found some breakthrough way of getting it to work. O well :)

Im still waiting on ATI to email me back the driver info after a month. They will have the win2k drivers out when MS whistler is releaded next year. Dont count on Ati for nothing. We need to get the guys at Lightspeed 2000 to build us a set of drivers for the tv wonder.

I'm tired of ati's bs... i've had problems with all their products whether it be them underperforming older cards or lack of support... I will never buy another ATI product again, i don't care whether it outperforms everything by a landslide and is extremely low cost... i will NEVER buy another one of their products. I waited 3 months for my drivers to come snail mail without a word from them aside from their automated web page that stated 4 - 6 weeks which is still a joke... Anyway, i'm done ranting, for now anyway :)
