ATI 9600 Hardware Error

S

Sean Ferguson

I have a really odd problem. I have an ATI Radeon 9600 Pro on an
AMD64 3000+ computer with Windows XP SP1. When I turn the computer
on, the bios and everything displays just fine. As soon as Windows
attempts to load the video driver, the display goes blank and about 10
seconds later my computer reboots. Most of the time on the second
boot I can get into Windows and it tells me there was a hardware error
in my video card. Unfortunately, last night it was stuck in the blank
reboot cycle forever. I could not get Windows to initialize the
display driver.

Once the system is up and running, it runs perfectly. Occasionaly
while playing Knights of the Old Republic, I will get VPU errors.

Does anyone else have this issue, or have any ideas on resolving it?

Please help, thanks!

I have a 400W CoolMax power supply. I actually am using an
nforce3-150 based motherboard.
