jane May 28, 2004 Share jane Member May 28, 2004 My ATI Raedon 9600 XT just fizzled out. I dont remember what the message exactly was but it was something like this... ATI has failed to complete the requested process. To restore graphics settings please restart your comp. So I did. And the graphics(none the monitor just went to standby) didnt ever appear! I just plugged in my old geForce 4 to get something going and the comp restarted and its working in something like safe mode(basically its running lowwest graphics cuz i took the geforce drivers out when installin the ATI). I dont have a freakin clue here. the ATI card was cool(bout room temp) when all this happened and it wasnt running anything outa the ordinary(BF1942). GOT ANY IDEAS?

[Mmmm]Homer May 29, 2004 Share [Mmmm]Homer Member May 29, 2004 When you change video cards, especially between chipsets, like ATi and nVidia, it's best to do a fresh install of Windows. I'd chalk it up to that and if you continue to have problems then do a fresh install of Windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
