i have windows XP and i am using an ATI ALL-IN-WONDER 128 PRO (32meg)

evrything has been working fine (i am using my old win2k drivers because the drivers that come with winXP put wierd stuff on the scrn wen i play games) However i have had no troubles, i am gettin reasonable framerate etc. Only up until now i have had no need for the Tuner/Capture / TVout/ woteva else this card has!

Recently tho, i 'aquired' some movies on computer (avi's mpeg's etc) an i was wantin to put them out to the TV so the whole family could watch them, however wen i go to do this i find none of the ATI options in the display properties. I downloaded all the new multimedia center etc and i still dont have the extra advanced ATI Tabs in the displa props (the ones wit the lil ATI logo next to them on the tabs)

where did it go an how do i get it back ????

Two things you can try. Go to add/remove programs and remove the TVwonder program, reboot then re-run the installation program. Or try going to the device manager click on sound game and video controllers you should see ATI video and another ATI sound click on update driver and point it to the cdrom. One of these should work. I run the same card.

Oh sorry I did not see that you are running XP.
Go to the ATI web site and download and install the xp updated drivers for this particular card. Also I heard of another issue if you are running the VIA chipset you have may have to update the drivers for that as well. Me I'm staying away from XP till most of these issues are settled. I'm humming along to good to mess right now.
