Ingloo how did you maintain that .dll file? meaning what directory in doom3
did you stash it in? and how does doom3 know its there and not pull the one
from the 4.8 set?

Download the 4.9beta drivers run the install set up, *but* don't finish
it, just let it extract out to whatever folder it asks and then cancel.
You can also just open the executable file with WinZip and extract it to
a folder of your choosing.
Go to the folder and find the atioglxx.dl_ file, it'll be somewhere like
....\wxp-w2k-DOOM-HOTFIX\Driver\2KXP_INF\B_17036\
Open a command prompt(start>all programs>accessories>Command Prompt) and
navigate to where that file is,
type in expand atioglxx.dl_ atioglxx.dll, then copy it over to the same
folder that has the Doom3.exe in it.
If you already have the 4.9beta installed, just copy the file from
c:\windows\system32\.
Then install the 4.8 drivers.
You can move the 4.9 beta atioglxx driver in and out of the Doom 3
folder to test for yourself which, if either, gives better performance.
This is the way these games have worked for a while, they look in the
current folder for a dll first then if they can't find one they head for
the system32 folder.
