Since Acer never likes to update their driver sets for the Radeon 9700 on the Ferrari 3200, we've all had to find ourselves some modified drivers. From Omega to using Patje's mod on ATI's cats, we've managed to get around it and get all the wonderful updates (including opengl 2.0 support). Well with Cat 5.6 that seems to have changed. Omega's version has support for MR9700 but I've encountered BSODs and just blank screens with almost every full-screen 3D application. Patje's mod doesn't work either on the 5.6's. Can't use ATI's mobility catalyst... no support for the 9700's yet (hopefully in the future?). So really we're left out in the cold.
My gripe: Acer doesn't care about updating drivers. OpenGL 2.0 is a big deal, big enough for an update.
My question: Anyone find any good 5.6s for the Ferrari 3200 that don't seem to have any issues? I'm currently trying DHzer0point and they're working better than Unian, Omega, DNA, and NGO. Or, did anyone find a way to modify the ATI official INF files?
Nuts.. all nuts... when Acer should be doing it for us. We buy their product and expect updated support!

Not actually tested them out by gaming mind yet mind you, will report back soon! (Unlike the DVD thing... nope still haven't had anything to burn a DVD for, beginning to think I might as well have got a DVD/CD-RW instead!)
