Re: What's the difference between DriverPack Graphics A, B, and C

The three Graphics DriverPacks are divided up based on target systems now instead of content. This may change in the future depending on user feedback.
Graphics_A: Mainstream ATI/Nvidia desktop/mobile. (A for Active)
Graphics_B: Business-level ATI/Nvidia/Matrox for workstations; ATI FireGL, Intel, Nvidia Quadro, Matrox Parhelia (B for Business)
Graphics_C: Catch-all for the bulk of other drivers such as SIS/Via/ etc. (C for Catch-all)

The Language Third Party DriverPack contains international language versions of some files within the three main packs, so you will get prompts to overwrite the English-only files with their multi-language counterparts.

We tossed around the idea of a fourth pack to handle all the outdated/derelict drivers but this idea was abandoned.
Graphics_D: Outdated or obsolete hardware such as 3dfx/older ATI/ etc. (D for Derelict/Dated)

It's possible that we'll bring about the creation of a single "Archive" DriverPack which would include REALLY old or abandoned drivers (LAN, Graphics, Sound, etc.) for old systems. Who knows.

The only information I've found seems to suggest that they are broken up b/c of the size but I don't understand why that would matter.

When I downloaded and extracted all three 7 zip file (actually I think it was 4 including the Graphics languages DP), I got overwrite messages for some files. Does this mean that Graphics A, B, and C have some of the same drivers in them?
