Win2k3 + Radeon = No videos


Recommended Posts

Hi,

i'm using Win2k3 Server with my Radeon 8500 (newest Win2k drivers). Everythings works fine, but if i try to play a video file (avi, mpg, m2v...) i get a blue screen which is caused by a ati dll (i cant remeber which one)

can anyone help me?

will there ever be special win2k3 driver?

thanx 4 your help...

I am using W2K3 with a ATI AIW 7500 and the Catalyst 3.2 drivers.

No problems with videos, movies, input from vcr or Tv. Captures are OK

but the native ATI format videos works best.

When the drivers are installed they must detect the OS because I didn't need to

input anything.

In order to install the ATI MMC, capture drivers, video drivers and the control panel

you need to follow the sequence and instructions on the ATI website. Otherwise you

will have problems with some or all of the components.

Also, if your video card is an OEM card by a MFG other than ATI you may not have much luck.

I have heard tales about some OEM cards (PowerColor, Sapphire, etc) not working well with

the ATI drivers. If that's the case, use the W2K3 native drivers.
