I am using an ATI Radeon 9600 with a Samsung wide screen monitor whose optimal display is 1440x900. It seems that my ATI 9600 cannot display the (wide screen) resolutions. Is that a video card BIOS problem and, if it is, can it be upgraded? I have no problems displaying the above...

Not just PCI. I want PCIe. The product is described on the ATI website, but I can't find it for sale anywhere. Does anyone know when it will go on the market? I'm holding off building a new system until I can have one. How long will I need to wait? Anybody know? Thanks. -- Bill...

I enjoy my X1950XT card in my E6400 system. I wonder if an upgrade to the HD2900XT makes sense. I'll stick to the XP SP2 for quite some time, so I'm not looking for DX10 enhancements. Instead, I'd like to smoothly play games in a high res (e.g., 1680x1050 or higher).

Hi, I recently bought a Videoseven L22WD (wide screen) LCD and tried to connect it to my Sapphire X1300Pro ePCI usind DVI-D (24+1 dual link) However I do not get any display when booting up my PC and when running Windows XP.

Cat 7.7 are out !!!!!!!!!!!!

are there any aftermarket gfx coolers available that can reduce the racket created by an HD2900XT? Getting a bit fed up with it. I thought I'd ask before I venture off down the road of watercooling.

Hi, my X1950pro is a TVOUT version so i can't use it directly. What about the possibility to use another capture device like a TV Card for inputs and GPU for realtime encoding? -- BB129

I have a Radeon 9800 Pro. When the weather is hot and the video card is put under load (gaming), the PC shuts down. I am pretty sure it is not the CPU because MBM is showing that it doesn't go past 70C (and I've seen the CPU go up to 80C on the desktop). Yet my video card does not have a...

I recently bought a Toshiba notebook equipped with a Radeon. It gives me two refresh rate options 59Hz & 60Hz. I've never seen a 59Hz refresh rate before. All my other LCDs' refresh rates are 60Hz. Is the 59Hz a bug, or is there some special use for it?

Hi, After installing a new dvd burner, my monitor is showing nothing after turn on the pc. The hdd, ram, mother board should work fine since I can here the sound when windows start. The monitor light is flashing on green. Is my video card dead? Thanks for your help.

Hi all. I just joined this group as I have a "problem" (I think) with the above referenced video card. I installed this card onto an Asus motherboard and it's running on an Intel 3.4ghz processor (P4). I wanted something better than onboard video. This is a newly built computer. I installed...

Hi, I had an MSI ATI Radeon X1300 PRO 256MB PCI-Express (Card: MSI, Chipset: ATI) video card for little less than 2 years before the fan stopped working. I didn't notice it and eventually the fan melted. Now I need to get a replacement. Should I just buy the same ATI model that melted or should I...

Hello, I have this problem: after I play an online game of Call of Duty 2 all the running system services take up massive amounts of memory. For instance, my firewall takes up 40MB, Explorer and some svchost.exe services too, RealtekAudio grew to 60MB and so on...

Hi, Not sure if this is the right group. It's the only one that I can find which mentions ATI. I recently switched from an nVidia graphics card to an ATI card. I have Dual displays set up in Horizontal Stretch mode. When I used nVidia, the control software had a neat feature, that it could...

I've just rebuilt the system and with a 9800 AIW and the latest Catalyst drivers, they won't see primary monitor as the Samsung DLP (which it did on the old system). It sees it as a regular monitor. HOw do I force it to detect it? I does see the composite as the secondary.
