gigabyte 7vaxp with aiw 8500dv problems..

o.k. i've been having some problems with this setup ever since i've updated the aiw latest drivers from ati.com. it killed my old monitor, so i had to buy a new monitor. my problem i'm having is that when playing video or using any video editing software, it would just blink and then shows a vertical lines of color. kinda like the test color for television whatever you a call that. anyway that card was sent in for warranty and was replaced with a new card. got the new card and work for about a week, then the same problem occured. until the video card just won't show any video at all, just a black screen. so i sent that card back to ati for evaluation and still waiting for it to come back. so if anybody out there with the same setup and having the same problem please let me know wassup.

XP sp2 beta, huh? Beta operating system, all bets are off, it could be anything. You may have to work with both ATI and Microsoft on this issue.
