I have an MSI Pro 2A motherboard and 1.0GHz Tbird on their way to me now (somewhere in the hands of UPS/USPS). I've heard people talk of VIA and of AMD drivers for Win2k. What specifically are they for and do I need them? I am planning to download the latest BIOS from MSI but I wanted to know if I should be downloading anything else in preparation for my new system.

Thanks!

Thanks. I just downloaded ver. 4.25a from VIA's website and will install that. Do these drivers fix bugs or are they specifically required for some function(s)?

Are there any other updates/drivers I should take a look at?

Thanks guys,
Should I install both of these drivers right off the bat, or only install them if the system seems at all flakey or unstable? I don't want to install any drivers that will do more harm than good!

I use Win98,however the Via 4 in 1 drivers should be the first drivers installed,the AMD/Win2000 patch is up to you,some Members prefer not to install it & since I`m using Win98 all I can say is see how it goes once you`ve the Via drivers installed & take it from there.
