I made the purchase of a 9600XT in the last few days to hold meo over until PCI express comes out because I needed a DVI connector that my GF3 lacked.
I was originally strongly opposed to getting an ATI due to my ATI mobile having a habit of blue screening often enough to be annoying. I was assured the ATI reference drivers worked much better than the mobile ones... Well; I must have a touch with making ATI cards fail.
I CONSTANTLY get 'We have had to restart your GPU' errors asking to send an email to ATI -- this is in games (or rather; Final Fantasy XI, the only game I play) or just on the desktop. Heck; I got one half way through writing this message.
I've used both the latest reference drivers off ATI.com for WinXP as well as the OmegaDrivers. Both do the same thing - I'm lucky to get 10 minutes without one of these errors.
Any ideas?
