I run a AMD Athlon 2000XP with 512 DDR Ram using Win Me. I have installed
the above card and the driver software won't work, e.g. wallpaper won't load
and games freeze.

I ununstalled all ATI Drivers and clean booted and tried to reinstall the
drivers again with only systray and explorer running - same result! The
shop where I bought the card tell me that Win Me sucks and there are no
problems with Win XP - typical excuse!

I then downloaded the latest drivers from ATI and followed their install
instructions to the letter - again same result!

Can anyone help or advise? I am seriously thinking of reinstalling my old
nVidia card!

Many thanks in advance for any help!

Did you get rid of all the shit the NVidia driver installed? There are some
utils online to do this, i forgot the name for them, sorry... When i buy a
new vidcard, or mainboard, i re-install windows completely, it's the only
way to be sure of a completely stable system, in my experience.
