ATI Graphics Problem


Hi all



Hopefully you will be able to help me with my problems.



I have a Toshiba Equim Laptop (A series)



It comes with a ATI RADEON MOBILITY 7000 IGP



Now after for some reason it decides to muck. The screen resolution changes to below 800x600 with 16 bit. It then comes up with a message saying



"Your ati2dvag has failed please reboot to restore your computer to its normal settings"



So i then reboot the Laptop and when click restart it comes up with one of those "End Now" windows saying 'shelllconhidden' window is not responding?? I dont know what that is? It may have sumthing to do with it.



So i click end now and the laptop closes down and restarts and when loaded up its perfectly normal again.



Then about 20 Mins later it does the same thing!!??



Also sometimes (not always) when it restarts it comes up with this Blue screen with a load of random letters and numbers which make absolutly no sense at all!





I have uninstalled and reinstalled Drivers etc.



I have WindowsXP Home. With McAfee Security Centre. My laptop is also on a Wireless Network.



many Thanks

You could try using a Driver cleaner, (something like that), They completly remove the drivers, then you just add the new ones on and see what happens, You can also try this with older drivers to see if there is a problem with the new drviers.

DriverCleaner Program

http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3214.html



Run the program, say okay to any changes. Restart your computer. Give Windows a few moments to use generic drivers. Download your newest official drivers at ATI.com

Install the newest drivers from ATI. Restart computer. Enjoy.
