Back in March, I upgraded from Cat4.1/MMC8.8 to Cat4.3/MMC8.9 (after using
the ATI uninstall utility). Thereafter, when I ran the TV (All-in-Wonder
9800Pro), my computer would crash every half hour or so (WinXP SP1, all
updates installed; p4 2.8GHz HT; 1GB DDR-SDRAM, Intel ...

This no longer functions correctly with xpsp2, the tweak pages are blank
but custom display and oc pages are ok.

How do I tell if this has the 360 core? It's a Sapphire 9800Pro 128 card and
I can't tell....the base core clock is 378mhz.TIA

I'm getting the following critical error trying to install MMC 8.9
(the latest version on ATI's site) on my W98SE machine:
Unhandled Exception

Well, over the past month I put in pre-orders for an X800 Pro and an
X800XT, both at pre-order sale prices. Gave up on Outpost after it
became clear they had NO intention of honoring their price, just said
it was on back-order with little chance of ever shipping.. PC

I have a Sapphire 9800Pro which I got in Jan or Feb. Last night I decided to
take off the VGA Silencer and clean it out. Everything went smoothly. I put
some new AS5 on the gpu, put it together, popped it back into the
motherboard (Abit AI7) and it wouldn't post (stuck on error code ...

Well, Carmack said it would stress things we didn't know we had. My
9600XT with Arctic Cooler was dead this morning after a 2 hour session
of Doom 3 last night. Coincidence, probably, huh?
Replaced it with a spare 9600SE, (gag, choke). At least I didn't have to

I know that's a vague question, but I'm talking in the $130-150 range.

Ok, Im on a Radeon 9800XT and have been getting these speckley artifacts now

Forget the meager tweaks posting everywhere. This is a simple working
Shader mod for ATI that addresses one of the real problems why ATI cards
are underperforming in Doom 3.

I installed the cat4.9 over my omega4.7 and I lost all ability to adjust my
cards opengl and direct3d settings, I did a system restore and got it all
back again, so is this normal, is it worth it? is there a way to extract the
files I need and overwrite my originals manually so I ...

I have Radeon 9800 pro with stock cooling... Without changing the cooling on
the card, is there any alternative ways to cool the card, like pci slot fan
or something?

Ive been playing Doom 3 for a day so far... and
Is it me, or is it that the only really notable thing about Doom 3 is the large amount of texture
data per level....but the way they have built up this texture data is, well, a bit rubbish.
What they have done is to use lots of ...
