Help - Installation Error

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.videocards.ati (More info?)

I am having extreme difficulty installing the ATI software -- either MMC
8.1 or 8.9 or 9.x -- in a system with Windows 98SE and an AIW Radeon 8500DV.

The driver and DAO installs ok, but when installing MMC, I get the
following error message:

Error 0x8002000B
Invalid Index

Installation Terminated

Anyone know what's causing this? If I install immediately after
installing Windows, it works, but if I've run "Windows Update" and
installed the critical updates, it fails as above. Looks like a
conflict between one of the Microsoft updates and the ATI software. Can
anyone confirm this, and is there a reasonable workaround?

Thanks
