Ralph,
I understand your confusion. What we have to do here is try and recommend the drivers that we have seen the most success with in the most machines. We get people in the chatroom who have problems of one kind or another, and it usually relates to the drivers that are installed. What we have seen work on the most machines are the ones that Morgan recommends. But like the saying goes, "your mileage may vary".
I also have a Gateway, it started out as a P3 600, with a TNT2 Ultra. I have since upgraded the cpu to P3 1 Ghz. and an Elsa GF2 Ultra. I run Win98 SE and used the 6.50 drivers for some time. For me, on 98SE they worked, for Morgan on 2K they were pitiful. As of now, I am using the 12.90 series of drivers. They have worked for me for quite sometime, but once again, for some others they have caused problems.
Since I have changed my video card to more recent hardware, that also MIGHT have some bearing on the subject. If you would like some specific help, or need some questions answered about what we have seen the most, you are more than welcome to come into the chatroom and we will try to address your specific questions and concerns directly.
