Ati2dvag update...

Update. Well, Phsyco0124, Windows has now been re-registered, and the Ati driver has been downloaded. Both have been saved and run. Windows required dotnetfx.exe to be additionally downloaded. The last action was to create a store point. So far all seems well. Timely, as my wife now has a camera full of 'new' baby pictures to work on!
Thank you so much for the guidance and help. The step-by-step help you gave was easily understood by this novice. Most impressive. Thank you.

Psycho0124 is an unknown quantity at this point
Excellent! So is the ATI driver installed and working? Your screen should look a lot nicer if everything is working correctly. It should also list that card again in the "Device Manager" with no "?"s or "!"s next to the name.

You can get to the device manager by hitting the start menu -> Control panel -> System -> Hardware tab (up top) -> Device manager. It will be under the "Display Adapters" tree.

Sorry for going AWOL on ya over the weekend. We got some rain for the first time in months here and my damned internet started acting up. I think they've got a moisture seal problem on their box down at the end of my street. Of course I had to spend nearly an hour on the phone with somebody named "Brad" in India that barely spoke English before I could even convince them there was a problem with the system here on the other side of the world.

Thumbs up tech support...

I wonder who answers the phone when somebody in India or Pakistan has a computer problem. Do they get somebody who speaks English and THEY can't understand them???

I will check on that tomorrow, Psycho0124. It appears to be a much cleaner screen. Am anxious for my wife to start using it to get her opinion. That will probably be near the week end. She's still doing the daily three hour round trip to help daughter and newest grandbaby.
It'll be winding down about Friday and then we'll get the REAL opinion. The one that counts!! Grandbaby pics are the only real and true test, afterall!!
