Our ATI tests are done on Radeon hardware using the latest Catalyst drivers. Could you please verify your Catalyst drivers are the most recent, and if so, then can you try on a different ATI chipset?

Hello,
I verified the vizard version: 2.50b
Next, i installed the latest drivers. note
this is a dell machine and the regular
ATi-website drivers did not work. But
the date of the drivers of the dell website seemed to match the ati
drivers published on their website (well almost, that is).
This is an older Ati Rage 128 Ultra chipset. Unfortunately this card does not use the catalyst driver set.
Other sys specs: P4 2.4 512mb on Windows 2000 etc.
(Dell precision 340)
Another problem i'm running into is
complete system locks on running the
3D demo's. (ctrl-alt-delete, alt-f4, alt-tab = no response, no more mouse-movement either). This first
happened with the "mini"-cardemo,
and just a few minutes ago also on other demo's, this time i ran collision demo to check the font problem,
and as i dragged the 3d window i
got the lockup.
At the moment i can not test another
Ati-board @ work. I could at home
though on an x800 card, but as u know
i will be developing @ work, so that's
no solution. I'll check if i can get a hold
of another card here.
Do you have any other suggestions,
regarding the system lock-ups and
unreadable text?
(system is up-to-date as far as possible, and has anti-vir mcaffee etc)
thanks in advance,
greets,
Kevin
