    i just installed omega drivers, but wasn't exactly sure how to uninstall normal driver or the conrol panel. anyways, when i pull up my display control panels, it's not the same. there's no option to adjust the open gl or 3dfx. then theres the powerplay tab, and the settings option won't work.

    can anyone hlep plz.

    Use the driver uninstaller that comes with omega. Then refer to http://www.driverheaven.net/showthread.php?s=5d786b0188a1866f7918d7e5f1e1358c&threadid=8053 to make sure you get everything.

    ALso, go to the control panel and remove the ati control panel/display option. You need to remove the driver and the control panels seperately.

    After everything is nice and clean using the above step and website, do a fresh install of the latest driver.

    Hope that helps!
