ATI driver 8.44 fixes selection delay woes Jan. 25, 2008, 12:59 a.m.
The latest ATI (Vista32) driver 8.1, released 01/13/08, did not fix my mini nework pane problem. I fixed the ATI mini network pane problem on my PC by disabling the +“ATI External Event Utility” services.
1. Open windows task manager
2. click services tab.
3. Click the “services…” button on lower right.
4. locate the “ATI External Event Utility” in the services window. Make sure your not in the task manager services tab window(see step 3).
5. Right click on the service and select “properties”.
6. in the properties options - disable the service.
I've noticed several other similar redraw “bugs” disappear from other applications, since I've disabled the “ATI External Event Utility”.
*** Update ***
After installing the latest beta version of houdini, My mini network pane problem came back. Even with the “ATI” External Event utility" disabled. I fixed the problem once again by reverting to an earlier ATI Driver build.
