when i go to install it with drivers on andys site, it says

"The display driver is not compatible with the display adapters installed on your system"

i have no display adapters on my system.. windows finds the video card, and i hit cancel as suggested..

any ideas?

Try the following:

1) Make sure any onboard video on your motherboard is disabled.

2) Download the Driver from this page:  http://www.ultimarc.com/avgainst.html

3) Reboot into safe mode (Press F8)

4) Unzip the files

5) Go into Device Manager

6) Do an update of your video card drivers to the unzipped folder, and REPLACE any duplicate files. 

Windows may try to use the Stock ATI Driver, which will not work with AVGA due to the special video modes!

Maybe I'm missing something, but I do not see any drivers on this page. All it says on there is to use the CD, which I also did not receive. I ordered mine from divemaster and have contacted him and he is suppose to send me the drivers.
