Hi, I really need some help here. I am trying to setup a Radeon 9700 but keep getting corruption of the display and/or freezes and crashes.

Under XP, the welcome screen is overlaid with blue squares and once windows loads there are thin yellow horizontal lines across the screen. This is as good as it gets.

Have tried 3 different catalysts from ati, the omega ones plus the xp native driver. Tried 5 machines from generic to dell precision workstation, XP and 2000~~~all the same.

I was thinking the board is duff but then have found LOADS on google about people having this problem, trouble is no body seems to have the answer.SOOOOOOOO over to you wonderful techies/gamers, can you help???// please?????
