    To make sure you got then and weren't pushing the last hundred yards, you'd have to buy the version that had a 48 mile range, just in case your batteries weren't 100% charged. That's another £1000 on...

    Try reinstalling DirectX and the Driver. Failing that, go down a driver level, and see what happens.

    I love ATI kit, but the drivers can suck sometimes.
