I desperately want to play Ahriman's Prophecy and games that are similar.
However, when I download them and start them up they crash my computer and
briefly flash a message saying there is a problem with the ati2dvag driver
and that "device driver is stuck in an infinite loop." I have Windows XP with
ATI Radeon xpress 200m series. I attempted to update or fix the problem at
ATI's website but I am somewhat simple when it comes to computers and cannot
find where and what to download exactly. Could someone help? |

If you have a laptop then you need to update the video drivers with
the ones available from the Toshiba web site, not ATI...
