What Catalyst drivers to install?

I'm planning to do a fresh install of XP home (32) and have a HD4850 card. On the Radeon web site you can download 2 files: the display drivers file and a display driver-motherboard and IGP drivers file. Both are about 35 Mb. Do I need one or other or both? This is for Catalyst V. 8.9 but I was having some problems with this before so should I go for a previous version (8.8), if so where will I be able to find it?

Cheers, Nick
 
If you don't have an ATi chipset motherboard, then you only need the display drivers.

Thers no harm giving the 8.8's a try if you had problems with the latest 8.9's, they can be found here :- http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/xp/radeonxprevious-xp.html which is found right at the bottom of the AMD download page, Previous Drivers and Software. :)

The 8.10 rc2's (Release Candidates) have been getting some good feedback as well if you fancy trying those.
