This article was previously published under Q139771 SYMPTOMS
When you are using the Windows 95 ATI Mach 32 video card drivers, you may
see random characters on the screen or experience random fatal exception
0E errors.
CAUSE
This problem can be caused by timing errors between the video card and the
computer when too many of the card's performance features are enabled. ATI
Technical Support has confirmed that the problem is caused by subtle
differences in bus timing when an ISA card is being used. The problem is
computer dependent. On most computers, the bus can handle the increased
demands created by the performance options, but some computers cannot. The
video card configuration options exist to deal with these instances.
RESOLUTION
Disable one or more of the performance settings on the video card using the
Install.exe program included with the ATI video card. For information about
configuring the performance settings or using the Install.exe tool, please
consult the video card's documentation or manufacturer.
