Hi thanks for your response but ATI no longer distributes drivers for
notebooks on their site! You have to get them from the company you bought
your noteook from. That was the first place I went too and was bumbed when
I discovered they no longer had them on their site.

FYI: ATI's latest driver made my system crash - I had to revert back to

the
old. Good luck!

No, I hadn't done anything! Anyways I called Compaq about this and it

has
taken hours to get this fixed and it still isn't fixed. Can anyone give

me
a direct link for the latest drivers for the ATI Mobility Radeon 7500
graphics card for the presario 1525US notebook? Compaq's driver site

has
like 8 of them listed for the 1525us notebook and it's confusing as

hell.

Did you just recently update your ATI video driver (either manally or

thru
Windows update)? If so, try "rolling back" to the previous driver. I

have
a
desktop with an ATI video card and had immediate problems since I

downloaded
their latest driver. By going back to the old driver, it took care of

my
problem.

Hi

I have never had issues before playing DVD's on my notebook now

today
all
of
a sudden, I keep getting that 'blue screen'.

This is the message I get:

A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to

prevent
damage
to your computer.

TECH INFO:

*** STOP: 0X0000008E (0XC0000005, 0XBFA4346A, 0XEEFF9A8C,

0X000000000)

*** ati3d1ag.dll - Address BFA4346A base at BF9FE000, Datestamp

3e87aa9a

It appears to be a ATI 3D driver, that much I can tell but I don't

know
how
to fix the problem. This has never happened before and I have the

latest
drivers for my video card (ATI Radeon Mobility 7500).

My computer is a Compaq Presario 1525US notebook, Windows XP, P 4

2.4,
512
memory, 40GB harddrive, toshiba DVD drive, toshiba harddrive etc.

Can anyone help me out here? My warranty with Compaq has expired so

they
will charge me if I call them.

Thanks.
