Systems Specs
WinXP Pro SP1
a7n8x-dx rev2.0 bios 1.05
xp 2400+ @2000mhz
sapphire 9500pro[no oc]
512 pc2700[infineon]
wd 80gig JB and 80gig BB
lg 40x16x20 CDRW
aopen 16x48 DVD
sb audigy pci slot 5
enermax 350w
Whenever I install any catalyst drivers the system becomes unstable. Parts of icons on the desktop disappear and the system cannot run anything in 3d, I usually get a message "windows has recovered from a serious error" and I get thrown to 256 colours or a hardlock. It also causes the system to take a really longtime to boot.
I have tried Cat 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and the shipping drivers. I have also tried 2.03 and 2.41 nforce drivers.
I have used 4 different fresh installs of WinXP. When I put in a Mx440 everything runs fine.
I have tried using AGP4x mode and Fast Writes are disabled.
Any help is appreciated.
Scope!
