for only 3 hours...:-(

What i did was uninstall all ATI products...installed .Net framework, latest driver, and directX.
I also uninstall the game "City of heroes" and "Doom III" (coz it was as well not working with this game) then, i install them again and update the patches ..still did not work.

The game kicks me out once entering the game and there was a msg from ATI something about graphic not able to support due to driver installed.....

My graphic is GeCube Radeon X800

by the way...from ATI.com driver updates: there was choices like Drivers for WinXP 64 edition, and for WinXP only.

Does the 64 edition means the kind of OS edition u have or the processor?

Sori...i dont know much about this :-(, i have AMD 64 Athlon processor and WinOS 32...just that perhaps it has something to do with the malfunction coz i tried both drivers anyway still prob persits.

You need the WinXP one, the 64 is for the 64-Bit version of Windows, which you do NOT have. So you need to uninstall the 64 version and keep the Catalyst 6.4 or whatever the latest one is.
