It's been a while since I came here, but I wanted to check in if there are any updates on any news of Rage drivers for Rev A iMacs for OS X. I am currently running 9.2.2 on my Rev A iMac... it has a Harmoni G3 upgrade (500 MHz, Firewire), 320 MB Ram, and a Gamewizard Voodoo2 card. I have OS X.1 installed, but I view so many videos (i have 400+ music videos) that I can't stand the choppiness of video for my comp on OS X.

I just posted this in the hack/mod forum, but I thought here would be good also.

There's an ATI driver upgrade announced on Xlr8 today....web page.

Links to here..... March 2002 driver update

I believe I have the 128 pro 8mb, in my iMac.
I'm also running 9.0.4, and it says 9.x required, but on the xlr8 page it says 9.2 or better, so there's some confusion there.

2 questions:
Does this update apply to my machine?
Will this driver improve my machine's performance or should I stay clear of it?

Any advice is appreciated since it's a sizable download, and I don't want to screw anything up.....thanks
