Display Driver Stopped and Recovered

Hi,

I have Boot camped my Macboox Pro with Vista, installed the apple drivers from the Leopard DVD.

However I am constantly getting the error message "Display driver has stopped responding and has successfully recovered", screen prior goes blank and machine hands for 2-3 seconds.

This happens as completely random intervals. I have tried switching off the "Aero" features, install new ATI drivers (Which fails, must be different hardware than std ATI cards).

Event view shows lots and lots of warning events 4101, with exact text "Display driver atikmdag stopped responding and has successfully recovered."

Any help greatly appreciated, this is really doing my head in.

Kentlad.

Hi - I'm having this exact same problem. I've tried the drivers supplied with Bootcamp, as well as several versions of ATI drivers (by advice posted on the Apple support forums). Nothing has worked. I still either get that error re: the ati display driver not responding, or I get a blue screen crash that says the video driver got stuck in an infinite loop.
