Omega Drivers giving me BSOD

by Ben Jones · in General Discussion · 12/30/2005 (7:23 pm) · 21 replies

Hey,
A few weeks ago I installed the omega drivers so i could use the TSE without having my computer crash. It worked great for a while. but now my computer is getting a BSOD every 3 or 4 hours. I tried to download hte catalyst drivers but i would always get an error while installing them, so I couldn't install it. I'm using a laptop not a desktop by the way.

I haven't completely confirmed that it is the drivers but I REALLY thing it is.

here are my computer specs:

Windows XP Home Edition
Pentium 4 2.8Ghz
1 GB Ram
ATI Mobility Radeon 9200

Here is the error i get:

When my computer restarts I get sent to here when i send the error to mircosoft:
http://oca.microsoft.com/en/response.aspx?SGD=af7c0f4a-d761-4cc8-bb73-b667d9de418c&SID=10

So...

Do I have to reinstall my old Graphics Driver to fix the BSOD? If I have to reinstall the old driver, how would I go about doing that?

Are there any other drivers that will work with TSE and not crash my computer?

Does anyone know when the catalyst drivers are coming out for laptops?

thanks
Ben Jones

Edit: I went to the ATI site and they have a thing for Moblity Catalyst drivers, but i scanned my computer with their little scanning program, and it said i cant use it, is that because i installed the Omega drivers? would reinstalling my old drivers and scanning again make the scan say i can use it?
