Are your video and motherboard drivers up to date?

click start / run / type in "dxdiag"
*enter*

Should give you a overview of your comp and drivers, look under display / Drivers .

Eh, you could always try omega drivers on that card , if you want to

: Uninstall vid card drivers,
: use a driver cleaner prog as things seem to stick even if you uninstall
http://www.drivercleaner.net/ - easy to mess up new install then)
: download omega drivers - www.omegadrivers.net
: restart pc
: install omega drivers

: Give me 500$ for overpriced support aid that rarly work:D (worth a shot)

I'd recommend just going to www.ati.com and downloading the latest.
