-ATI RADEON X800 PRO & NFS Underground: WTF?!

[Guest]

So I finally decided to replace my aging RADEON 8500 with a new X800 PRO and
I'm happy for the most part. It's nice to play games smoothly at 1024x768
again.

However, NFS Underground and the new NFSU2 demo doesn't seem to like my new
video card. As soon as I run the program, the whole game turns into a
slideshow from the loading screen to the menu screen. I've tried both the
latest Catylyst 4.10 and Omega drivers.

Has anyone experienced this? Is there a fix?
