    Hey everyone,

    First time posting so don't laugh at me to hard.

    Anyways i did a stupid thing. I heard that if you delete or modify the parental control on your ati thing your games will run faster. So i went to control panel and add/remove programs and delted the two parental control things for my ati. Now my ati driver doesnt seem to work, and the little quick launch is gone from the bottom right........ :eek:

    Need help to find out why its not working and if i need to re-download something?????

    Thanks a lot :D

    Sounds like you uninstalled your ATI drivers. Re-install them and all should be well. I have no idea what's going on with a memory check. Your web browser popped up saying that, or a windows error message?
