Here are my system specs:
Shuttle AK35GTR Motherboard with VIA kt266a chipset
Athlon 1200
512mb Kingston PC2700 ram
120gb maxtor hard drive
Windows XP PRO
ATI RADEON 9600 video card (non-Pro)

I simply cannot get the catalyst drivers to work. After formatting, installing all updates (including VIA hyperion 4-in-1 v4.51, directx 9.0b, all windows critical updates and SP1), my computer will not boot into windows after installing the catalyst drivers. I have tried using older catalyst drivers, replacing the ram, trying a different power supply and nothing seems to work. ANY IDEAS would be appreciated!!! I hope I don't have to buy another motheroboard too! Please help, I have run out of ideas and tried everything!!!
 
Try using older via4in1 driver, as i know lately they have problem with catalyst, but i think they claim have fix that in latest driver.
But who knows???
Windows won't boot? Any specific message or it just stop?
 
You may also want to try reducing agp to x1 and disabling any cache setting within the bios.
