Error: Display Driver R300 stopped responding

Does anyone reading this post have the problem described in this KB article?

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917332/en-us

The monitor does not turn on when you move the mouse or press any key after
you configure the "Power Options" settings on a Windows XP SP2-based portable
computer

I have this same exact problem on Vista Enterprise after the screen saver
kicks in and after a hibernation. On XP, Microsoft says this happens because
of a bug in the videosys.prt mini-port driver on multiple-processor machines.
There is an updated version to download there -- the only question is, will
it work on Vista?

Problem Reports and Solutions recommends updating the BIOS -- I think this
is an eronious solution (I have the latest version). The videoprt.sys driver
sounds more like the culprit to me because the KB systems described are
exactly like mine.

Microsoft, if you are aware of this, please let us know if there is an
updated Vista driver.

Thanks!
 
Hi Perski,

I now have this problem fixed. I tried contacting Microsoft tech support,
which was totally useless for this problem IMHO. What fixed it for me was
Windows Update had an Intel driver update. It was an optional update so I
needed to select it separately. That fixed the problem. I posted the fix
somewhere on this forum, but I am not sure where now.

Hope this helps!

Sorry, I don't have ATI Radeon graphics; it's a Toshiba tablet PC. I just
posted it here because the error message I was getting was the same as the
original post. I was having the this problem when the screen saver came on
and I attempted to restore it by pressing a key or moving the mouse.
 
It's not just Dell, I have a eMachines made by Gateway and I have that error
everytime I try to play a project in Premier Elements, every edition made up
to this date.

I hope someone has a fix that works, I downloaded the newest updates and
drivers.

I have a desktop pc, it's eMachines by Gateway, and came with Vista and ATI
cards. I have done everything in these posts, still I think we all need help
because nothing works.

WHY are you putting this in a thread that was started by someone else?
Are you just STUPID?

Not only THAT... but the only post in the thread is over THREE MONTHS
OLD.

Start your OWN thread, you idiot!

Do you?

With your caps lock pressed, responding to a conversation that started in
April 2008 to a responder that posted in July 2008 - it's now July 2010.
Not sure what you were hoping to accomplish. I'm not so sure you do have
something better to do with your time. ;-)

Pot, kettle - glad to meet ya'.

Perhaps the timeframe is easier to see in the tree view of this link:
http://groups.google.com/group/micr...a.general/browse_frm/thread/477c2cee79b811dc/

.... rather than the leech site "techarena.in" - which I would suggest to
*anyone* to drop usage of ASAP if you want actual new and interactive
content. ;-)
