Anyone knows anything about this?

I think ATI drivers are really random.
I've been getting a variety of different ati2mtag errors with each install/reinstall.
Sometimes reinstalling the same version gives different ati2mtag errors too.

I would start by making sure you have the latest SiS Chipset drivers for your motherboard:

Products > Desktop PC Chipsets

Additionally, check for any updated BIOS.

I'm having an issue with this driver as well, only slightly different, however, I can't post new threads for some reason.
