Catalyst Control Center Problem
I just got a a new XPS 8100 with a Radeon 5450 graphics card. Everything ran fine for the first few days, but now when I start the computer I get an error message that says "Catalyst Control Center Host Application has Stopped Working" and I cannot open the Catalyst Application. I get this message several times. The computer seems to be running okay, but I would like to find a fix for this problem. I have downloaded the latest drivers but am a bit hesitant to install them without knowing what is causing the problem. Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the tip, but unfortunately that did not work. I uninstalled the old version and downloaded and installed the new version from the ATI site and still get the same error message. I guess it is back to the drawing board. I am open to any other suggestions.

Okay it appears that the problem was a corrupt user profile and once I set up a new profile all the problems vanished.

The updated ATI Catalyst Control center and drivers should fix the problem. That would be the first step.
