    I've been reading throught this forum for a while looking for the right drivers for my 5672, but i am having trouble finding the exact ones i'm looking for. The 2 major ones are the omega ati drivers and a new driver for the speakers(sound). I know the sites where to get them but if anyone has a direct link to the page to download each one and can tell me which specific one to download, the help would be greatly appreciated. I just want to make sure i download the best and correct drivers for my new computer. thanks for any help.

    go to the ati radeon link at the top, then to the xp link when they ask you to select your os. i am unsure of the speaker drivers, though.

    Well, it's always best to uninstall old drivers first, but I usually just install these over top the old ones and have never had a problem. But if you do run into problems, try DriverCleaner Pro from Guru3D: http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=745
