No temps ati tool & CCC Monitoring problem

[2400bc]

Hello -

Can somebody help me figure out what is wrong here? I have two problems:

1) After changing my video card to a different one ATI Tool no longer shows the temps of the card nor the fan speed. The fan speed doesn't bother me, but I would like to have the temp reading back in the tray. Currently all the tool says in the tray is zero. I know the card I installed has a temp chip feature because the temp shows up in the Catalyst Control Center... well, before that stopped working too.

2) Everytime I start my computer I get a message that Catalyst Control Center Monitoring Program has encountered an error and needs to close. I have 8.1 installed and have had this problem ever since using a version of CCC other than what came on the original graphics card disc. What is wrong with CCC?

Thanks for any help!:)

Hi, I can't tell U the solution to this problem, but I gues it is caused by .NET Framework 3.5. Lately I've installed a fresh copy of Win XP and didn't have any problems with CCC, but after installing Visual studio'08(with .NET Framwork 3.5), CCC shows an error message on startup =(...

For Problem #1, did you un-install all drivers for your old card and then install the drivers with your new card in.
Sounds like that might be the issue.

My .NET framework only goes up to version 3.0 (plus the hotfix.)

As for uninstalling my old driver before installing the new one - I did that, and also a couple of times later I uninstalled the new one and reinstalled it trying to troubleshoot it, but no difference. A day ago ATI Tool even stopped monitoring the clock speeds and posted zeroes, but I got this message which said to reinstall it so I reinstalled it and that part is working again; just no temp or fan monitoring still. Also, I still get the "monitoring problem" message from CCC. I think I could get CCC working again if I installed the version from my Gecube disc, but then I wouldn't have the newest version to use. Surely there is some fix to let me use the newest one (not that the newest version is necessarily broken - it could be some obscure software conflict somewhere else.)
