My son had an ATI 9000 Pro card in his PC, and he said that the video
performance has just recently been really slow, e.g., if you dragged a
window, you could see it lagging.  I checked his system, and it indeed
was doing what he described.

I just purchased a second Samsung SyncMaster 913v.  Attached it to the DVI
output via adaptor.
Lots of fun.  Browser on the left, TV on the right, Desktop Sidebar on the
far right, icons in the middle.  Been playing around with VISTA themes for

Can anyone instruct me or lead me to a link?

I just downloaded the 6.1's (I think I had 5.2's) and I noticed that the
Catalyst Control Panel isn't there anymore (the option to install it was
gone as well).
Did they phase it out in favor of the Cataslyst Control Center?  I really

Just upgraded from the ATI 9600 AIW to the X700Pro AGP. The AIW doesn't have
a fan, so I find the X700Pro noisy. (I built a silent PC, so now the only
thing that I hear is the X700's fan).
I have two questions.

I have around $150 to spend on a video card.
I want something that has a high overclocking success
It will be cooled by a waterblock so if the card is EASLY voltmoded
that might be an option.

I have a Dell 2405 FP monitor and a X1800 All-In-Wonder. Latest 6.1 drivers
and MMC 9.13. I cant' seem to find an fixed aspect ratio setting that
doesn't think my 16:10 screen is a 3:4 screen - in other words, if I set it
to 4:3 it ends up 16:10 on my monitor. If I set it to 16:9 ...

Hi,  I have ( for about 3 weeks) a Sapphire X800 GTO for AGP ( with Rialto
chip). I have been reading quite a lot about the possibility of unlocking
the 4 cripled pipes of the R430 chip so I ran ATI Tool and the card reports
the required "0xFFFFFFFF" and "0xFFFFFF9F" for the die ...

My Radeon 9800 PRO card has some sort of box called VIVO which has a
cable that plugs into the cards TV-OUT. From the box there are video
input and output plugs. I cannot put a s-video cable directly into my
videocard since its only the cable from the VIVO-box that fits.

 Since installing level 9.13 MMC my TV Player audio is choppy. Has anyone
else had this problem?

I enjoy the efficiency of ATI MMC's VCR format for when I record video,
however, it has a problem with the way it compresses video. It meshes
the colors a bit, causing the interlaced fields to begin bleeding into
each other. When this happens, every interlaced image contains

I have been using my ATI Radeon 9700 Pro for a year or two.  I just
bought a new PC case, so I moved over my motherboard and all
components.
I connected everything up, turned on for the first time and, for about

Forgive my ignorance! Can someone please tell me what the card
hierarchy for ATI's line of video cards is? I see a lot of graphics s/w
and games saying that it require a minimum of an ATI Radeon 8500.
I have an ATI Radeon X300SE. Is that higher than a ATI Radeon 8500?

My Toshiba laptop M30 has been fine for a year, now crashes 10 mins after
running Runescape (online game) or when merging cells in Access, but will
run all day if I don't do too much.  Used to give blue error screen now just
crashes.  I have an ATI Mobility Radeon 7000 IGP is ...

Even better than my X800XL!
