ATI Display Drivers - Code 43, Code 37, Code 10

Hello,

I have been having quite a few difficulties with installing a
Vista-compatible Radeon driver for a Radeon 9550 256MB AGP card.

I have tried the following:
1) default ATI Radeon 9550 driver (WDDM) -> code 43 (device reported
problem)
2) Standard VGA driver -> code 10 (device cannot start)
3) ATI Radeon 9550 driver for Vista Beta 2 -> code 43 (device reported
problem)
4) ATI Radeon 9550 driver for Vista Beta 1 -> code 37 (driver could not be
initialised)
5) Catalyst 6.6 XP driver -> okay (but no Aero as it is not WDDM)

The Performance Rating and Tools section cannot detect the video card, nor
gaming graphics. However, the ratings are 2.0 and 3.2, respectively.

The motherboard is a ASUS P4S8X-X with a SiS 648 chipset. I have tried
replacing the default Vista AGP driver with a SiS XP driver, but it makes no
difference.

I have reinstalled Vista Beta 2 onto a clean, formatted parition before
installing each driver. I have also used the "Check for Solutions" utility,
but so far, no solution has been found.

I have searched the Vista newgroups and the Internet, but the few solutions
which I found did not work.

I realise this is a beta build, but it would be very nice to personally see
what Aero looks like as there has been a lot of fuss about it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Jake.

When I installed Vista I had a cheap video card and therefore had no aero
glass.
I upgraded my card to a ATI Radeon 9550 128mb and when I booted up it all
worked with Vista built in driver. Glass works great with this card. Hope
you get it fixed.
