EAZYSHARE enables users to share TV - live or recorded - from a PC equipped with ATI's ALL-IN-WONDER card with any other PC on their home network, as long as it has a "Built By ATI" RADEON(TM) graphics card. The ALL-IN-WONDER card turns a PC into a fully-functional personal video recorder and EAZYSHARE extends those benefits to other PCs in the home. The launch of EAZYSHARE is the latest step in the transition of the PC from workhorse to the multimedia center of a wired home.

old news buddy.. the bot posted it days ago.. i'd delete this thread but someone would get mad :/

Well ati never had it at their site until yesterday evening...buddy

yeah this is new

has anyone have any problems with 3.10?

Hmm.. it was in the bots section.. not anymore oddly - I don't use 3.10, I use the omegas.. Might try 3.10 if I hear good things

Well my friends claim it fixes major bugs in games but thats all they said... so you should probably check it out yourself

ATI said that it is faster in 2D games
and ive heard that it slows down in 2D games until you restart after install

duh

anyways
so far no one has complained about it from what ive heard

it should be safe enough to try

It does fix bugs, and could be faster - but i doubt faster than omega

why not try both and benchmark instead of speculating?

im using geforce4 Ti4200 and im waiting for a new forceware drive :D

because i'm lazy! oh - and the ti4200 is my fav nvidia card (last one I owned in fact, but that's another story)
