I replaced an NVIDIA card with an ATI.

When my system boots up everything loads up to the correct screen res with
all the running apps in the lower right information bar. Before the ATI
catalyst icon (red) appears the screen goes blank (3 to 5 sec) as if it's
loading something but there is no change to any screen setting.

Q: Can I stop this process.

This does not occur with the NVIDI card fitted.

thanks

It's the bloated Catalyst Control Center doing its thing. If you are not
running Crossfire, you can prevent CCC from running by disabling CLI.exe in
the Windows MSConfig startup list. Adjust your settings with ATi Tray Tools,
which is lean and doesn't poison your system.

I notice this too on my MSI Radeon 4870 video card (512 MB of RAM) and I
had a NVIDIA GeForce 7950 GT KO (512 MB). The black screen only lasts
for one second AFTER I log into my updated Windows XP Pro. SP3 (IE6)
account. It's just a small annoyance to me.
