radeon 9100 xstasy video card pci 64mb compatible with ati all in wonder 8500dv?

[waynezo]

I am trying to instal the xstsy 9100 pci as a second video card to drive a second crt monitor. at the end of the installation process while direct x9 is being installed i get the error, the instruction at 0x772200e4 referenced memory at0x001632c8 the memory could not be read. then my machine would give an error message and go into safe mode on reboot. I tried uninstalling the 9100 drivers to no avail. had to do system restore. tech support at visiontek said card was not compatible or that I might need special drivers.
Any advice will be apreciated.

Your previous card might not be direct x 9 compatible. I would try installing direct x 8.1 and see what happens.

I tried just installing the driver, still having same problem

Neither of these cards are DX9 hardware. Nonetheless, ATi's current driver set is DX9 compatible.
Try installing freshly downloaded drivers and DX9.

Doesn't the all in wonder 8500 have a dual monitor display options? (w/o having another video card)

[waynezo]

the 8500 dv only supports using a tv as second monitor and the quality is so poor you can barely see the desktop due to the different signal tv uses

[Peter M]

No, AIW cards do not have dual outputs. There's simply no room for the connector, be it VGA or DVI.

I downloaded the catalyst 3.6 driver from the ati website, used driver cleaner and then installed the new drivers and now the system works ok
