XP got sloooow after installing ATi Catalist 3.9

I have a XP2400+ system here, Asus A7N8X, 512 PC3200, Radeon 9500, XPpro SP1 that has gotten slow after installing Catalist 3.9 drivers. All the motherboard drivers from the CD are installed. Since I'm an AMD/Radeon NooB what can this be?!

People have been having problems with the cat3.9s to begin with. I would try rolling back to the old driver. Also, update your chipset drivers, it can never hurt to do that. The ones from the cd are probably not the newest version available. Good luck!

Careful with them. I had serious issues with the newest chipset drivers.

Back to the Cats, I have not noticed a difference at all with mine. Maybe give the Omegas a shot.

Really? They actually improved my peformance a bit. People have been saying great things about it. You do mean the new b force2 drives? Thats what I am talking about.
