I would not say that you have to reformat and start from scratch, generally if you can get into Windows you can fix it.

If you restored from your restore disks, I would imagine that this is what probably happened anyway ... if you lost your data then it is.

As far as drivers go ... did you have any problems with the original drivers from when you restored?
If at all possible, try and get your PC back to the point where it last worked.
If you can send me the exact message that comes up when you get this error, along with what software you have installed I should be able to formulate a fix for you.

By the way, reformatting hard disks is generally a last ditch effort. It's kind of like taking your car in and being told you need to replace your tranmission, when in fact it can be rebuilt for less.



Well I figured re-formating is last ditch, but I am lost and others seem to be as well. Its most definitly a problem with my system not my ATI, at this point anyway. Since I get the same error message when trying to load the original software it came with.. I am sending you a pm. I appreceate any help. Thanks guys
