Very sorry for the confusion.

God, how do these companies ever survive.. You might imagine that a company the size of ATI would by now be able to post a simple update for Mac users to download easily.
The ATI site is nothing short of a nightmare of ever decreasing circles that take you nowhere.
I am a confirmed ATI card user, but they really do need to present themselves in a better fashion to those of us who use the net and ATI products.

We see this year after year, but Apple considers the graphics drivers part of the core OS, so they always update OEM cards this way. Now you know.
READ the RELEASE NOTES.

The AGP listed at the bottom confuses me.
Read this: https://support.ati.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=894
to do ROM update, safe-boot is required.
As always, read the Read Me before using it.
cheers.

Note that this requires 10.3.6 or higher! READ those release notes.

Ran flawlessly on this DP 450MHz PowerMac with the Radeon 8500 card running Panther 10.3.9. Repaired permissions prior to install. The software REQUIRES you, THE USER, to reboot IMEDIATELY following installation, so don't forget to perform that vital final step.
You will note the pinwheel BSD portion of the boot after the first restart will take two or more times longer than usual - DON'T PANIC - give it time to finish.
Good job, ATI.
