Recently, we have found out that X1K AGP series would not have DirectX enabled on  some KT400 motherboard when using Catalyst 6.5 or later. This will result a poor  performance or even error when running 3D applications/games.

Not all KT400 motherboard would have this problem. And not only KT motherboard, Intel/SIS may have this issue too. The driver fix will be available by October 2006.

For workaround, please use Catalyst 6.1 driver if you encounters such issue.

Users are recommended to check if they are affected by this issue. They can go to "System Information" -> "DirectX Diagnostic Tools" to check if DirectX is available or not. If not, users should uninstall the current installed display driver and re-install to use Catalyst 6.1.

Catalyst 6.1 is available at:

http://download.hightech.com.hk/driver/Radeon_8_205/8.205-060104a-029861C-ATI.zip

If DirectX is enabled, users/customers do not need to roll back to the old version driver.
