Omega 2474a "not compatible.." Sapphire 9600 Pro..

Getting "This display driver is not compatible with the display adapter installed in this system" error. It's an OEM Sapphire Radeon 9600 w/256mb from newegg.

Only get a black screen after the splash screen with both the ATI and Sapphire drivers.

Intel D845PESV mobo. P09 BIOS. DirectX 9.0b. Fresh WinXP SP1 install.

I'm getting the same problem.

Sapphire 9600 Pro (128Mb RAM)

ATI cats 3.6 are fine.

I had the same problem. Just install the normal Cats from ATI. Then install the omega's overtop and you will be fine. Not sure why the Omega's are doing that but this is how you can get around it.

Nice. Now if I could just get anything but a black screen with the ATI drivers I would be in business. Maybe i'll try it in safe mode which is all i can get with the ATI drivers.

Have you tried updating them manually through Device Manager??
