Problem with Omega Drivers

I have a Radeon 9800 Pro card with the newest Omega Drivers.I made sure i had uninstalled all previous video drivers before installing these.They install fine and work perfectly however for no apparent reason when rebooting/restarting my computer windows desktop loads with 8 bit color in 800x600? or lower resolution and i cannot access the Omega control panel because it says no drivers are loaded.When i manually go into video settings i can only accept the resolution i am in.The only way i have found to fix it is to reinstall the drivers after every restart.When this happens and i reinstall i get end task now on atitray.exe on shutdown if that helps.Thanks

Occasionally, I've had to go into Safemode to get certain new drivers installed correctly. Try that and see if it helps.

If you comntinue having these issues, also install DriverCleaner Pro and after uninstalling old drivers, boot into safe mode and clean out everything ATI related before installing the drivers one more time. This should help.
