Have lost the video on my ATI AIW 9600. TV audio is fine so I suspect the
video portion of the AIW is hatched.
Have reseated the card. that's all I've done so far. Will go to the ATI site
but don't have much hope from those guys,.
Any ideas out there would much appreciate
Thanks

Is all video gone or just the TV video? Need more details.
The chance of it being software/hardware is 98/2.

I need to do is quit following this news group, then I wouldn't be tempted
try the latest Catalysts

Hear, Hear!! That's been the source of my problems too. Guess common
sense (not always followed) says "if it ain't broke, don't fix it, even with
the latest drivers."

Went to check things in Control Panel(CCC) and it won't open since
installing the latest Cat drivers(resisted last month). Reinstalled
everything and still no good. Put in MMC 9.03 today and now DTVs acting
funny. Haven't had a chance to check anything else. I'm spending way too
much time on this.

I've learned my lesson as well. Installed that .net trash from M$ just to do
the last Cat upgrade and things have been going downhill ever since.
Installed SP2 on Monday hoping that might help and things went from bad to
worse. Going to spend this weekend and reformat/re-install all the OS and
apps and be done with it.
