ATI HD 4550 Black Screen

asummerf · **30th June 2009, 12:57 PM**

Last night after corrupting my Vista Media Center install I decided to take the leap and upgrade to Windows 7 RC.

After the install and installing the latest Catalyst 9.6 drivers when ever I try to watch mpeg2 content (live tv, recorded tv) all I get is a black screen.

Can someone help me before I take a hammer to my system???

Regards,

Adam

I needed to take a hammer to me it seems, as it seems the card was not fully seated in slot.

Did it kinda cut to a black screen and freeze the computer? Mine does that ocassionally.

No the screen went black and your could hear the audio track continuing.

No problems since, touch wood!!!
