Anyone having problems using this card with the new drivers. Mine works
fine with 3.8 but will not run with 3.9. Could it be the nForce 2
Motherboard chip set?

Works fine for me using an A7N8X Deluxe.

You could try a driver removal tool before installing the Cat 3.9s.

I have an Asus 9600xt also.....The drivers on the cd were 3.8
cat...All games worked fine except Nascar 2003 in the D3d
mode...OpenGL was the best choice there.....I tried the new 3.9
drivers and they did not work well at all in games like Ghost Recon
and Battlefield 1942....My mb is a MSI 6712....Its a great card but my
advice at this point is to stay with the original drivers until the
next catalyst is released...
 
what do u no i got the same mobo
msi 6712 :-)
amd athlon xp 2100 at 1.73ghz
512mb ram
9600xt

and i too am experienceing a prob with battlefield 1942
when the actions getting high my chip tends to fry
it stops resonding and ati's damn message comes up asking me to send
them the error report

how to fix this....
well so far i found out i had an extemely old cataylst softwere (3.1)
so for starters i'm gona go get the 3.9 if that doesnt' work i'll try
the 3.8 like u said previosly
i'll repost again and tell u my findings

ps: does the fastwrite thing need to be turned off from the bios? they
said to in this group :
http://groups.google.com/groups?q=9...-8&selm=9CtBb.2381$7U1.4693@amstwist00&rnum=2

well i'll bb
 
i'm back!
andddd it worked for me, well for now,
i was running full bots of battlefield which is like.. 59 and me :-P
and tryed to get the smallest map possible to squeesh us all together
and i ran out in the middle of it all and it handled suprizing well.

before it would also work with high stress areas and then just not
work some other times i'll let u no if it fails again;
BUT i have an ATI 9600xt not an Asus and just so u no i'm running XP

soooo for me
3.9 worked well lol alot better than 3.1

oo but does any1 no if OpenGL works better than Direct3D for
battlefield 1942 i'm using direct3d and its workin preaty good for me
but i dn't really no whats best also whats with Desktop color vs Full
Screen 3D under the lil Color tab on ATI's property thing, i got it as
desktop color but who nos maybe i'm wrong

anywayz gl fixing ur problems i'll let u no if it fails again
