Need Help: Ati radeon 9600 (slow comp+no opengl)

grubeost

hello everybody.
I got a problem.

i just reinstalled my computer and getting the new drivers for my gfx card. Ati radeon 9600(ATI Catalys 7.12 Display Driver for Windows XP) after i instaled it my computer it got very slow.

Every website takes 1-3 sec to load(before catalys drivers: max 1 sec) a mom.exe fail. because i needed the Microsoft .net 2.(something) so i downloaded all Microsoft updates i could find.

After that i installed the catalyst driver again same problem. then i uins it and instaled only the driver (not ati control center etc.) Thad did not help, so i installed a driver from omega (ati_omega_xp2k_48442) instead that was much better.

My computer was fast again but when i try to play some on my computer games it will not go in opengl.
Before i reinstaled my computer i didt have any problems i use an older ati driver back then(i dont remeber the version).

i hope somebody can help me here.

Spec.
My gfx card: Ati radeon 9600/x1050 serie
os: win xp pro sp 2
amd xp 2500

i know it maby not the fastest computer, but still i should not do what is doing.

Greetings and welcome to DriverHeaven!

For the 9600 series AGP cards, I'd recommend you try the Catalyst 6.11 or even the Cat 6.5 version.

Also, either Omegadrivers or NGO drivers based on those versions should be considered.

NGO drivers here:

Hi dyre straits.

thx for the help. i went with my old gfx driver from omega. it works like charm now.

i got another question.

if i want my computer to auto login to my profile and not the administrator how can i do this ??? right now it is auto login in to the administrator account. itīs a pain in the ass to log out and then login every time i starts the computer..

regrets grubeost.

You likely have an extra User Profile on your system after installing .NET framework.

Go to your Control Panel, open the Users section, and look for ASPNET as a User. Delete it. (You do NOT need it!)

After rebooting, you should get right to Windows again without the annoying Login.

Good luck!

the .net one is loginable?

if that doesnt work, maybe this

Windows XP: Auto Logon to Windows XP

(or if that doesnt, registry tweaks)

Not really. I never even tried to log into the ASPNET user. It just creates enough 'multiple' user accounts that it causes the login screen to come up. Deleting this account returns the system to allow the owner to get into Windows without that annoyance.

Hello again.
thx Dyre straits and kn00tch

i already delete that .net account. (did not work)
i also tried what they say you shut do on Microsoft's own site (did not work)

i dont know how to operate in the registry database, can you make a small guide for me ?

shut i ask for this help in another forum ?

Be sure you get the .NET Framework patches from Microsoft. I think (from memory) you have to apply/install the patch/es to get the autologin to work again.
