Yesterday I 'updated' the driver for my graphics card (ATI Raedon Xpress 200M).  Now any time I try to do anything in-game it doesn't take long for either my screen to simply die or for me to get the blue screen of death and the computer restarts.

Any suggestions?

I say use a driver cleaner to remove the ATI drivers, then you can reload them. Hit me up on xfire and I'll send it over.

Either that or system restore to before you updated the drivers.

Yeah thats what I was thinking, but I was hoping it wouldn't come to that.  I updated it to try CoH, which works now but if its gonna be a toss up between the two then MxO wins.

Yeah I just system restored to a few days ago.  Seems to have done the trick.  To hell with CoH.

That's an interesting driver issue with MXO. I'll send that information upwards see what comes of it.

I would have said to just roll back the driver rather than do a restore.  Less administration to deal with.

Just a note for the future now i guess as you have already restored.

It is also possible to use unofficial drivers that are not digitally signed, perhaps you will get lucky and have both your games working well.
