Sad OmegaDriver having problems with ATI Radeon 9200

I have ATI Radeon 9200

I was previously using Catalyst v6 but I was having problems with games such as freezing and was recommanded to update my driver, however, i found out Catalyst stopped updating anymore drivers for my GC which is disappointing and their last update was in 2006

So I came across OmegaDrivers and thought it'll be something nice...
from OmegaDrivers.net - Home of the ATI & NVIDIA Omega Drivers. ATI it says
Radeon 9k-9250 Series
For these cards please use the Omega Drivers v3.8.252 or older, thank you


So I downloaded and installed v3.8.252

And now I have this problem at random times, possibly 5 times in 3 hours and very annoying...
First my screen goes weird, i dont know how to describe, first it goes blank black and then lines and stuff, something wrong obviously

After 5 seconds or so everything comes back but I have some problems... Its just like when i uninstalled my ATI drivers, when i flip thru websites i have low fps and when i drag windows my windows are like being moved partially, also low FPS

and i also cannot launch games and stuff, Its just like I didnt install any driver...!!

Any way to fix?? Its annoying and i have to restart computer to fix this (log off doesnt fix)


And at the "Radeon Omega Drivers v4.8.442 for Windows XP/2k" topic
I see that you said
This time every Radeon card under the sun should be supported

So should I get that too??

Help plx


Edit-
And i read this post http://www.hardwareheaven.com/ati-grap...t-working.html it seems everyone there is saying 9200 is a Dx8 card, but its not... well im using it and having 9200 and can play games that require dx9.0c without problem...

edit2
i would have something like his... im also a wow player and when this prob occurs wow doesnt respond anymore
