Matrox have released a new set of drivers for Windows for Windows 9x/ME. Version 6.82 (6.5MB) supports all products from G200 to G550 including MMS but excluding Hardware Marvel products. This release marks the end of support for the Marvel G450 eTV, that's all folks!

Main Fixes
----------
- Screen corruptions in sound forge
- Texture problems in Flight Sim 2002
- C++ runtime error in pdesk when switching languages
- resolutions are cut off when using 2 dfp's.
- Medal of Honor Allied Assault performance

Main known issues

- EMBM is disabled with digital flat panels.(G550 only)
- smearing of web pages
- Using the G450 pci card on a system with onboard sound, audio will be degraded during dvd playback if you disable the onboard sound and install any pci sound card.
- If you have selected 4 different desktop resolutions where all resolutions are in 32bpp and one of the resolutions is above 1280x1024, your system may reboot when opening our PC-VCR. We recommend that you put one of your desktop resolutions to 16bpp or lower one of your desktop resolutions to below 1280x1024. (G200MMS with TV Tuner only).
- "Smearing texts" defects exhibited when scrolling with Wheel-mouse.
- Texture flashes in Serious Sam the 2nd Encounter.
