	I have a ATI 6850 GPU and I get the message: "An ATI GPU supporting double precision math is required" This GPU does have double precision floating point. Maybe de software doesnt recognize because it's a relatively new gpu?

	=/ Sorry, I knew the older ones did support, it seemed unlikely for newer ones not to... Thanks for the info.
