I am using the latest driver patches etc. ASUS P4C800 Dlx, bios 1016, 1 gig
ram, 2.8 gh
P4, XP Pro w/all patches. When using the TV player with IE, IE crashes and
cant be restarted. The audio remains on and system must be rebooted. I got
the following from ATI tech but it does not help. Any ideas or comments on
the recommended BIOS settings? I have also posted this on the ATI news
group.

Thank you for contacting ATI Technical Support Canada.

Regarding system locks up if TV player and Windows Explorer are being used:
