I have Win XP PRO SP2, Asus P4C800 Deluxe, 1 Gig mem, P4 2.8, SB Live!, ATI
AIW 9800 Pro. I have the latest drivers and BIOS. When I run the TV
application and other applications in the background (Internet Explorer) my
system hangs the screen goes blank and I can still hear the audio but must
do a hard restart. I have tried disabling the soundcard, per tech support.
I have also run disk defrag, NAV scan, Ad Aware system scan and three other
programs without running the TV application and had no problem. I am not
overclocking and have tried the default BIOS settings as well as some more
conservative settings.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!
 
Had the exact same problem with my ATI AIW 9600Pro using MMC9.02 and ATI's
4.9 drivers. After e-mailing to/from ATI tech support with no solution, I
tried Omega's Radeon Omega Drivers (v2.5.90). That solved the problem.
Remove the ATI drivers first and then install Omega's Radeon 2.5.90 drivers:

Omega drivers work fine. I have spent countless hours on the phone with ATI
tech and they defended their drivers and said it had to be something else.

Thanks!
