They are kinda, but you can mod the ini file and install them for 6/7 series cards too and they work fine. Also installed this driver now but also not getting a new style control panel.

I'm curious if this driver update was to help in Lost Planets. Cause they've been working with nvidia to help with problems and what not in the demo. Hell I even gained some FPS in it.

That list is from 2004, but no I haven't been able to find a complete list yet. ATI was too slow at adapting the SM3.0 tech. Oh well, doesn't matter now, they are going under with AMD slowly.
