Faulty Catalyst 2.4 !!!!

Sadly, after the installation of the last version of Catalyst drivers v2.4 on my system Windows XP sp1 with ATI (Sapphire) Radeon 9000 Atlantis Vivo,
I received a blue screen from ati2dvag.dll .
Recoverying with the previous version (v2.3) my system works again.

First time I have problems with ATI Drivers.

ati2dvag.dll bsod

ianc, do you have a Giga-byte mainboard?

the ati2dvag.dll bsod is a hardware conflict issue, and usually resulted from conflicting irq settings. find out what other device share the same irq as your ati card (tend to be a sound card) and set their irq to be different in bios. a more forceful approach is to move the conflicting device to pci slot 5, which doesn't share irq with any other devices. check your mainboard manufacturer for the lastest bios.

i had this ati2dvag.dll bsod issue since summer. after testing on different os and hardware settings, it was determined to be a hardware conflict (non-defective) issue. i solved it by moving Soundblaster Live to pci 5 and 3com nic to pci 3.

ati2dvag.dll issues

I put my system configuration in the signature.

IF the BSOD from ati2dvag.dll is for a hardware conflict issue, why this don't happen with the previous versions of the ATI's drivers ???

I checked that my ATI video card is sharing the irq with a PCI USB2 card.

Thank for your post
