Any one else haveing BSOD's computer locking up or weirdness with the mouse
pointer? On my system it seemed to start
after I upgraded the Radeon drivers, so I went back to some older ones. Now
when I play any games or shut down a program , computer locks and I have to
reset to get back into windows. The only error I get is ati2dvag.dll page
fault in non paged area. I searched the net but didn't find any fix's so
far. As it seems to be only on Asus boards with the radeon cards I thought
I'd ask here.
System is only 9 or 10 months old
P4PE
Antec 430 watt
2.4 P4
512 meg crucial 2700 mem
Radeon 9000 128 meg
(1) WD 40gig HD
(1) WD 80gig HD
Samsung CD/RW
Sony DVD/R/RW
Turtle Beach sound card
Win XP Home Sp1
The system was rock solid till I installed the Sony DVD and upgraded the
vidio drivers. If no one here has a fix I'll start looking into a different
Vidio card. Normaly I wait till I'm sure they have the bugs out of their
Updates befor updateing, Guess I should have held off on this one! Anyway
thanks for any ideas in advance!

I have installed an ATI All-in-Wonder 9000 64MB DDR Pro on my P4PE.
Driver version under hardware properties is: 6.14.1.6292

Everything seems fine, display, performance, even the remote controle

The only problem I am having is that while hooked up to my TV (no computer
monitor) I can not get into my BIOS. Sorry, let me rephrase that: I can get
into my BIOS, I just can not read it as it is just a jumbled mess. Anyone?

Does the same thing happen if you uninstall the DVD?
Did you uninstall the old ATI drivers before upgrading to the new Catalyst
ones? You have to get your system down to just a plain-generic VGA display
before updating, as the old driver files are left behind and are trying to
be used by the new driver.

I tryed takeing the DVD drive out today and that made no differance at all,
The only thing that did was
now when I reinstalled it I can't watch DVD's I get a screen that looks like
it is loading then nothing.

Yes, I uninstalled everything from the add remove applet. I even
reuninstalled all ati drivers this morning
and tryed the new Catalyst drivers again. Am afraid I'll wind up haveing to
dump XP and start all over
soon as things are just getting worse: (

Thanks for the input though : )

Only other thing I can think of is overclocking. Are there any overclocked
settings in your BIOS? Check both CPU, RAM and Vid Card settings. Try
setting everything to regular or standard settings.
