My new 9800 pro is hot! also having trouble with an error - file error is 'ati2dvag'- and this file is making my machine loop....not sure what to do.

maybe reset my bios- defaults. should probably also try my card in another machine to see if its the machine and not the card.....im stuck!!1
help me please...!

Welcome to the Forums!

Very descriptive title! I almost didnt have to read the post! nice work!

in reference to your problem. Try uninstalling (but removing it physically from the machine) the card from the system. Restart the system, click cancel when it tries to install the new device.

Go to www.omegadrivers.net and download the latest ATI/WinXP drivers.

If this doesnt work, we'll try something else, but very similar.
