I went to the ATI web site to download drivers for an old Rage Pro card
that I was installing in an old computer. Nowhere on the home page, other
than a link for Cat 3.7 for XP, was any obvious download or support link!
I eventually found a link by going to Developer, then seeing a Drivers
link on the left.

Virtually all hardware companies put an obvious download or Tech support
link on the home page. Why is ATI making it so hard to find?

It's two clicks! Go to www.ati.com and click on Customer Care (at the top
of the screen) then choose Find a Driver (it's second in the pull-down menu)
and there you are. What's so hard about that?

Not even two clicks, Tom, just one. Just click Drivers & Software (pretty
devious, huh?) in the bar across the top. Perhaps they need to actually put
the drivers on the ATi home page? ;-)

Look again Andy. Click on "drivers & software" on the home page and you
should be good to go.

I figured it out. It was my Ad blocker blocking the bar because it found
'/promotions/' somehwere on it or related to it.
