    Hi Everyone,

    I'm having a number of problems with my Macbook Pro GPU whilst running parallels. I'm trying to run steam and play portal through parallels 3.0. When I start up steam I get an error message saying that my GPU drivers ( the card is an ATI Radeon Mobility X1600) are out of date and I need to update them. I've tried looking for Mac update drivers for the card but there doesn't seem to be any. Should I be using windows drivers instead as I'm running the application through windows?

    If Steam doesn't require you to update your GPU driver to play games, just ignore that message. Parallels uses its own GPU driver so there is no such thing as an "update" for it unless a newer version of Parallels is available (and I highly doubt Steam actually recognizes the Parallels GPU driver anyway).
