Titolo: Asus A7N8X Deluxe, Win 2000, Radeon 9600XT -> Problem

Hi
I have just put together a system containing
Asus A7N8X Deluxe
Athlon (Barton) 2500+
Sapphire Radeon 9600XT
512MB Crucial Ram
I installed Windows 2000 Advanced Server. Then installed the Nvidia
Nforce2 drivers supplied with the Mboard. All was well up until this 
stage.
Next I installed the latest Win2K catalyst drivers for the Radeon.
Now when I try to log into windows at the Ctrl-Alt-Del prompt it fails. 
Or rather it just displays the login prompt without any error.
When I uninstall the catalyst drivers the problem goes away.
I was able to install the catalyst drivers and had them working fine 
only when the nvidia nforce2 drivers had not been installed.
Are there any known issues with these drivers and windows 2000? I am very 
reluctant to spend money on Win XP if there is a simple solution to this
problem.
Thanks

Curious, how is that system for gaming?  Was considering using adv.
server myself, as it has addtional disk configuration options for the
dynamic disks, but I was worried about the effect possible extra
system overhead would have on my gaming...

Have you got your memory set to large system cache?  The catalysts don't 
like that.  But that usually causes delayed write failures, speaking 
from XP experience.  Thought you might have 2000 server set with server 
memory settings.

Thanks all for your help.
I eventually bit the bullet and bought XP. I just couldn't get things
to work with Advanced Server.
Works fine now. I'm using the 3.9 catalyst drivers and the latest
nvidia nforce2 drivers.
cheers

I've found that NONE of the current ATI Catalyst drivers (3.7, 3.8 
and/or 3.9) work with Windows 2000 Server edition.
Note this only affects the "Server" editions of 2000.
This is a bug which should be solved by ATI or don;t they support 
"Server" editions ?

I tried installing the Catalyst driver on Win2003 Enterprise Server.
The first time I was simply installing all the software and got a
message saying that some file (begins with ATI ends with .DLL) is not
logo approved and contact the manufacturer for an update. I continued
anyway and it wouldn't boot afterwards. Just does a memory dump.
I restored from Ghost, tried installing just the driver. No warning
this time but wouldn't reboot. I contacted the manufacturer and am
awaiting any sort of resolution.

 and/or 3.9) work with Windows 2000 Server edition.
They've all worked for me without problems.

Server Edition ? really ?  what card do you have and what services do 
you run on the machine ?

 you run on the machine ?
Crucial 9800 Pro.
I tend not to run MS Servers like IIS, FTP, Telnet etc but everything else
is there.

 just to be precise, is it server or advanced server?
Windows 2000 Server.

Right..
Then do you have Terminal Services running ? coz i'm suspecting this 
service to be the culprit.
I gotta figure this one out. it's driving me mad that i cannot seem to 
get a Radeon 7000 running on this platform..
