New graphics card problems

[Azusa]

hello i have just got this card and got it installed and everything but i am having issues with the TV out. When i boot up the boot process shows on my TV like it did with the last one but when windows is loaded i get nothing on screen. I open up display properties and set it to expand the desktop over to the TV but when i click apply nothing happens.

Update the CCC opens but the same as with disp props

Anyone know what might be wrong?

thanks.

Try running GPU-Z and post a screen shot. I'm not sure what is the problem but that might help I'm not sure.

downgrade driver to 7.8 (or older) or use the hotfix 8.1 driver (I had issues with it)

It is a problem of ATi AGP cards and it has not been fixed for a long time now.

alternatively u can use Omega drivers

[WarStorm]

I think he's using Vista... Omega drivers havent been released for Vista and ATI just yet - they are in the making though (Y)

EDIT: Sorry looks like he is using XP actually- a vista theme?

[Atasas]

uninstall the ATI driver, set windows default (crappy resolution) and install Omega(google)

Just read carefully when doing so, but Omega ATI is whole lot better driver. It solved my problems at least.

I had this problem YESTERDAY! What happened was, I updated the Chipset drivers (Windows XP) and I was getting the same error. Have you upgraded your drivers for the MB? If yes, roll back to the previous drivers, if not.. update the chipset drivers. Hope that helps. Are you by chance using a MB with a VIA chipset?

ok using the Omega drivers and have encountered a new problem i can't seem to expand my Desktop to my TV anymore

last bump of the week

Why dont you just try the latest catalyst suite. The lack of no image after bootup told me it was a driver issue.
