Title: Anybody have the disc image/driver for the ATI Radeon 7500 AGP 32mb card?
Post by: pYo on March 28, 2020, 09:00:40 PM

If anybody knows where I can find this, I would appreciate a link. And if you have it without a link, I would appreciate a WeTransfer of it - my e-mail is linked.

Not sure if this installs via OSX (10.4.11 on my G4 tower), or that you have ot install it in MacOS9 proper or via "Classic."

Glad to have found this forum!!!

Fbz - Thank you for posting that link to those 2 software downloads, and I did d/l them. I'll have to double check whether I have already installed them or not. I just recently rebooted my G4 AGP tower from about 10-15 years ago.

SGD - thank you as well for posting that link. However, there was no specific link for the driver I requested. So that bothers me. Also, I'm curious if the original driver came in OSX versions as well????

I understand AMD acquired ATI in 2006 and I'm very pissed that they do not post ANY Mac legacy drivers on their website. You know they probably have them archived somewhere.

Anyway, thanks again guys for the efforts!
