I just installed a radeon 128mb 9800 (AGP) on my computer....

it loads windows and everything works ok....BUT I cannot get the cataylst to run !

now everytime my computer starts up it gives me an error message...

I've seen that before. I assume you've tried downloading the latest catalyst from the ati website, and/or reinstalling?

illnastyimpreza · 07-22-2007, 03:47 PM

yeah....I'm gona try some older drivers

Froberg · 07-24-2007, 06:36 AM

That could work. If the latest don't work - reverting usually does.

found out it was my .net update... need at least 2.0 ... i only had 1.1

if you use omega drivers, they tend to work better then the ATI ones.

illnastyimpreza · 07-27-2007, 07:34 AM

yeah ? where do I find those ?

OmegaDrivers.net

just click on the download button on the mirror of your choice.
and the version is compatible with the 9800
