I am running Windows XP Professional. The instructions on ATI's website
(which have been changed) went thru each step and said that you should not
restart after installing the Video drivers even when prompted until you
installed the control panel or the control panel would not install properly.
Now the instructions are very vague and I did not print the old ones. So I
don't know how to install the new driver. I always update to the newest
driver but since they changed the instructions I don't know what procedure
to follow to get the new ones installed properly.
