ati-tv wonder problems, need help
- Thread starter thesuperstar
- Start date
What OS are you using with the card and which All in Wonder Card do you have?
ATI has just recently updated all of there Win XP drivers so if you are using XP you might want to look at one of those drivers.
Also is the card AGP or an older PCI card?

cliff he was talking abut ati tv wonder not all in wonder!
yea i had a problem with it also not that one but from
my (xp)ereance with xp a ati it is bad the tunner is distorted and the only way to fix it is to change the bit depth from one to another ati has not updated those drivers in like 6 months so we will just have to wait til they release the new drivers.
due to this proble i went out and bought a 24" tv for my office i still have the card in there but it is disabled
all i have to say is F.U.C.K ATI they are the worst company due to the lack of support for any of there products (they count on 3rd parties to make ther drivers) that is why i will never buy from them again, unless nvidia pulls a 3DFX....lol....hope that doesnt happen!!
Hey "thesuperstar" go and buy a tv save you the
stress!!!

Yes - ATI have been really bad with updating their device drivers, especially since the release of XP, I've had problems getting a good working driver for the Radeon 32DDR - until recently. I always had problems playing games with FOG.
The same goes for the new 8500 - the drivers they released are not perfect. apparently the were glitches/distortion in some games, eg ghost recon when the sniper rifle is used when zoomed up on target.

Hopefully the new deal they have going with the distribution of their GPU to third party manufacturers will help give them a brand new lease of life.
Dont think Nvidia has the ability to pull ATIs plug so easily. ATI still got a lot of juice pack in it. Just look at the 8500, and the fact that hercules have announced they will manufacture ATI cards - has put ATI in a much better position already.
The ATI 8500 may not beat the Geforce 3 Ti 500's in shear power and speed and may lack a few FPS - it does so in video and it atually has a REAL tv out port connecttion unlike the Geforces. I personally prefer the 8500 over any TI 500.
But i was pretty much gobsmacked when Nvidia announce the relese of their new drivers and beat the ati 8500 in tests - i though the 8500 could at least match the Geforece 3 Ti500 - but i was so wrong.
Theres more at tomshardware.
