Proven where, by whom?

Show me the proof, do not merely state its proven then not back the

Your screwball logic hit the bottom right there.

Nvidia drivers still tend to be more stable than ATI. I use both
chipsets and have for years (currently TI4400, FX5200, 9600XT, 9800pro
with windows 2000 and XP) and i consistently have less issues with
NVidia drivers. That being said, I love my ATI cards and I wish they
would get their act together with better testing of their drivers.
NVidia gets feedback from their "leaked" betas. Does ATI? I have never
even seen a beta driver from them,so who knows.

And how is this different then Nvidia? They have cards that cost $500
and will eventually get down to $200 as well. Ryan, you're either a
troll trying to get ATI users all upset or just stupid.

Simple example, a recent one posted by Harry Putnam. Let's read what kind of
problem he is having with his 9800XT. ;-)

----------
Group,

Some times on bootup, and it seems to be happening more often, I get
my initial login screen but with some kind of strange overlay or
corruption.

The overlay consists of columns of bars about 1 1/4 inches long and
columns that strech full length of monitor. About 8-10 columns wide.
Columns have about an inch of space between them. Something like:

====== ====== ====== ====== ====== ======
====== ====== ====== ====== ====== ======
====== ====== ====== ====== ====== ======
[...]

Its transparent but opaque enough that it makes doing any thing
impossible. Usually a full stop/restart sequence is required to make
it disappear. A reboot usually doesn't do it.

And sometimes even a full stop/restart and it still shows up for
several cycles.

Mobo is the Asus KV8 mobo for athlon64.

Any one have a clue what might be the cause of this?

----------


Now let's read how another poster named Dave W. responds
----------
Some rumors say that Athlon 64 motherboards are having some conflicts with
Radeon cards.
----------

I rest my case. ATI cards cause nothing but never-ending problems. Problems
related to video card driver, problems related to some sort of motherboard
or this or that incompatibility. Problems, problems, nothing but
never-ending problems with ATI cards. You ATI losers, I mean "users" are
pathetically in denial to acknowledge the wide-spread and well-known
problems of the ATI cards...

Exactly what problems are you having with the drivers ?

So what. You bitch about buggy drivers but then you want beta drivers
? Doesn't make sense to me.

ATI users lack common sense since they can't come to terms with the flaws of
ATI cards.

I am just making the point that with people testing beta drivers (not
me) that nvidia can have feedback on what sorts of "problems" they may
have and "fix" them accordingly. As a software developer, this is a
huge plus to have others test your code and give you feedback.

In my experience I've had more problems with Nvidia drivers than owt else
(I've got a GF3ti200 and an FX5900, in addition to the far superior Radeon
9700 Pro and the X800XT PE I'll get!!). It's all horses for courses
though - what works for one might not work for another.... I'll not mention
closed, private Beta testing of ATI drivers though ;-)

At least you've given us a little background on your experiences, for which
you're to be commended, which is more than can be said for Bushwhacker.

Because he is the biggest idiot as well as a warlord. It is sad that such
idiot represents the American people. He doesn't care about the lives of the
American soldiers getting killed every single day in Iraq. All he cares
about this own agenda. This idiot promised a creation of 3 million extra
jobs, but during his presidency we lost 3 million jobs. In defiance of the
United Nations, he waged war against Iraq thinking he was all mighty and
could handle the war without the approval of other nations, when the death
toll of the American troops started rising, he started seeking support of
the United Nations. George W. Bush gotta go for the well-being of our
country.

Vote him out!

It is not Nvidia driver problem, idiot. Read it again! It is a problem
related to operating system assigning a letter for the slave hard drive. I
just wanted to change the automatically assigned letter to another letter of
my choice.

> How humiliating!

It is not more humiliating than ATI performance after paying $500. ;-)

Did you learn everything in your mother's uterus before you were born,
idiot? I bet you didn't know anything about XP right off the bat when you
started using that operating system. It is not a shame to ask and seek
information.

It is shame to be persistently in denial in spite of known flaws of the ATI
cards. If you don't mind, I have no choice but rest my case again 'cause I
just scored a bull's eye again. ;-)

All you're gonna separate is the dead soldiers from the survivors of
leftover soldiers. Yep, we all saw how 130 thousand American soldiers
behaved as boys as handful of Iraqi Al-Sadr's supporters stopped the
American troops. There is more to being a man than you think.

Pssst the ones that did that are in Pakistan (or who know where now)

You sound like the rest of the lemming that blindly followed and

You sound more like a racist with nothing but revenge on your mind.
