DriverHeaven.net - View Single Post - Activating the Ati HDMI in Device Manager leads to black screen on reboot

Hi there,

I just bought my new machine with an Abit AN52S (which has HD Sound onboard) and an Athlon 64 X2 4800+. My Graphics Card is a Club3D HD 3870 DDO Overclocked Edition (which also has HD sound onboard over HDMI).
After I have installed WinXP, I installed the graphics drivers that came with the card (the newer ones don't include the HDMI driver but I tried them too). After the necessary reboot (when the XP Logo fades) my screen stays plain black. So I reboot in Safe Mode, deactivate the thing thats called Microsoft UAA HD..., reboot again and I have my WinXP working without the graphics drivers.
The Device Manager tells me that my card has not enough ressources to work properly. The (deactivated) UAA driver also has this yellow exclamation mark telling me that it has not enough ressources. I had disabled the onboard sound, so this can't be it. With this configuration I installed the motherboard drivers (the newest ones) and enabled the onboard sound again, installed the newest Realtek driver (which automatically installs KB888111 like the HDMI driver from AMD that came with the graphics card) and after all I got my system running with sound network and everything except the 3870.

I've been fiddling with drivers and configuration for three days now and I installed XP three times to have a clean OS. I also installed the drivers in another order (e.g. first the motherboard driver (nForce520) then Catalyst drivers).

This is the first time I can't get a system to run completely and I'm sure it's just a driver crap here but I don't know what to do at the moment.
I'm running the newest Omega Driver (v.4.8 I think).

I saw many people on the inet who had problems with this HDMI driver but I unfortunately never saw someone solving it. I guess the problem is that Windows can't get that the HDMI Chip is on the Radeon and for that is using the same ressources. I also downloaded the Ati HDMI driver from Realtek which doesn't install because I wouldn't have a device using the drivers.

Please Help
