I bought this thing off Ebay... and made sure to ask the seller if it was a built by or powered by board... he replied built by. Got it and tried to install drivers from ATI and no go. What the heck is this thing?


The white sticker on the back give P/N 1028310100 but the etched PN on the front of the board doesn't match?!? The front says: PN 109-83100-00

and has a Copyright 2001 ATI Technologies Inc. on it. There is some kind of ATI logo on the back of the board but it is obscured by the "remove this sticker and your warranty is gone" sticker.


Windows sees this board as an ATI Radeon VE DDR


Here's some pics...

Can anyone help me out in identifying this thing?


Thanks,

You can ask ATI. The 102 number is what you want to use when you ask.

Alas, I've already tried that. The 102 number appears to be invalid, which only fuels my suspicion that something is afoul with this thing. I've sent in an email to ATI just before I posted here. It's a kind of experiment to see whether I'll get a correct response here or there first. I'm guessing here. Anyway... Thanks for helping. Anyone else care to take a stab?
