Well, here they are, had to make some changes to the installer at the last minute, but now they are fully working and ready to roll, hope they fill your expectations. :)
These drivers are based on the Cat 5.6 (Cat 5.5 where skipped) and they now include a customized version of ATI Tray Tools instead of Radlinker. Go to the ATI Radeon section and take a look at the readme while downloading so you know the latest changes and additions to this set.
* Based on the Catalyst 5.6 Official drivers. - Removed a lot of obsolete tweaks. - Removed RadLinker from package. + Now ATI Tray Tools is included as default tweaker. + Re-enabled the default 3D and Color panels in the ATI Control Panel. + Added a desktop shortcut for the ATI CP and for ATT (both optional). + Included a few new OGL Smart Shaders.
Note: Since these drivers include a non-standard version of ATT, I would recommend that if you have any previous version of ATT installed, please uninstall it before installing these drivers, not doing so may cause unknown problems.
Note2: Please don't e-mail telling me there are a few references about the old CP on the site, I'm aware of this and will update as soon as I can.

But you still can use all other functions!
* Fixed wrong OSD color calculation for some old Direct3D (D3D 7/6/5) games.

Radeon Omega Drivers 2.6.71 http://www.omegadrivers.net/ati/win2k_xp.php Release Notes * Based on the Catalyst 5.9 Official drivers. * Added support for a few new Mobility cards. * Fixed various resolution problems, now wide screen resolutions for laptops should work. * Reconstructed Mobility support (M10 and up), laptops that had problems before should work properly now. * Fixed OGL support for FireGL cards (both Mobility and Desktop). * Added some install/uninstall options, now the drivers should install with less issues and they uninstall all registry traces. * Added the option to install ATT or not during setup.
Known Issues: The settings for both D3D & OGL will not be synchronized between ATT and the normal ATI CP, you must only use one of them to make changes, the best option is to use ATT since the ATI CP does not support changes to AI and in order to use the advanced D3D/OGL features. Changes made in ATT will work on games and such but the changes will not be reflected in the normal ATI CP since ATI stores the registry values that the CP reads separate from the actual values in the registry.
The Driver has support for all Geforce cards. * Based on nVidia ForceWare 78.05 * Image Quality improvement * DXT3 has been forced in order to improve old OpenGL games quality * nHancer has been updated to v1.2.2
