    hey guys,

    the latest official MSI Version of the GX740 VGA driver that i found is 10.5!

    ive taken it from the GX660 download page. This is truely an old one :D

    I searched around a little and tried every driver i could get...absolutly no one worked... :mad:

    Now i have found 1 working 8.800.0.0 (11.3 i guess) version that works without tweaking or switching or something to be modified.

    I got it from Eurocom and was my last try before a giveup.

    I hope someone else tries it and give a positive feedback here ;)

    Heres the link: http://downloads.eurocom.com/support/drivers/zip/ATI/HD6970/win7/8.80WHQL-101110a1-109153C-ATI.zip

    Interesting,

    The ati mobility ones??
    They should work, i'm sure MSI cards are just like standard cards, and should run off the same drivers.

    Well like i wrote...no one the official and other ones didn´t worked for me...ive tried AMD 11.4 mobility the older ones Dell, MySN, Clevo, Deviltech, Medion...
    only that one from Eurocom did.

    That the question if i´m the only one with that problem i solved now or if there are others that this driver may help upgrading their system... :)
