Hello,
I managed to get most of my Radeon 9200 working on Mac OS 8.6 by using the Radeon 9200 DVI-I driver. 2D acceleration and RAVE work fine, but OpenGL games fail to launch or run without acceleration (almost frozen). I tried many versions of the ATI OpenGL library, including one from the 9250 Mac OS 7.6 drivers but it didn't work as well. Any suggestions? I have everything working on Mac OS 9.2.2. However, Mac OS 9.2.2 has some issues with a few older games like Flight Simulator, Hexen (random crashes) and Darkseed (slightly strange colours). | Posted by: filipetolhuizen on 2026-02-01 13:39:40
Installing OpenGL 1.2.4 (same version I have on OS 9.2.2 folder) fixed it. Now everything works under OS 8.6, too. Wish I found those ATI drivers way before, but never came across them until then. They would've spared me a lot of headache when I first acquired my Radeon 9200. | | 1 |
