ATI removed the support of all older cards in Catalyst 9.5. Maybe with a modified inf file, you can use Catalyst 9.5+ with your card... The latest driver for the Radeon X1950 is Catalyst 9.4.

Also would like to know if there are any updates after catalyst 9.3 for the Radeon X1950 Pro cards on WinXP x64? - Seems that AMD isn't producing updated drivers for them anymore, but what about 3rd party ones? Advice would be great, Thanks So what are the chances of these drivers fixing the CrossFire issue in Fallout 3?

"I’m glad they finally heard my prayers, that was a nonsense to only give access to GS with Direct3D." They're making GS in GL for the third (fourth?) month now. In Catalyst 9.5 you can already successfully compile GS, and bind it. Too bad it's skipped when rendering. Maybe a few months more and it'll be ready.
