My computer freezes with screen corruption just after starting and reboots.
The readme says:
" This note applies only to Windows "Longhorn," not Windows Server
"Longhorn."
The graphic device drivers included in Windows "Longhorn" Beta 1 do not
support the ATI X700 AGP or X800XL AGP graphics devices. Because the
PCI-Express
versions of these graphics devices are supported, and the AGP versions have
the same device ID, Windows "Longhorn" will attempt to install the
PCI-Express
version of the driver. This can result in a black display screen on
computers
with the X700 AGP or the X800XL AGP devices. To work around this problem,
start your computer in VGA display mode and install the latest ATI Catalyst
XDDM
display driver."
So what are the XDDM drivers? And how do I install? (Legacy?)
I'd love to get this going, thanks.
