Stealth75711 Hey mate!

You probably think of me as a boring, pedantic, old fart, but I do have the saving grace that it took years of experience to get there

I have had quite a few problems with ATI Radeons over the past 7 or 8 years. The hardware is fine, but their drivers really suck seriously.

I built a box for a guy a while back, and he insisted on this (in those days) top of the range Radeon..................it gave problems from the start and the drivers were only 4 (four) weeks old!.......checked the site, and sure enough, there were new ones out

That solved the problem
