How to fix ati2dvag errors?
If you’ve ever suffered from an ati22dvag error, it’s possible that it was the last error you saw before giving up and buying a whole new system. Such is the annoyance of this potentially crippling ATI-related bug.
The ati2dvag error is provoked by the ati2dvag.dll file and can take on many different forms. You may see the blue screen of death with an ati2dvag error message, or you may simply lose your display settings in favour of a diluted screen with pixilation and bad patterns.
There are several steps we can take to try and get to the root of this mystery problem, and they span quite different approaches. First and foremost, you should check to ensure that your ATI has been installed effectively and hasn’t overwritten old files or configurations. The ATI hosts the driver specification which happens to include the ati2dvag.dll. If the ATI isn’t installed correctly, or has an invalid driver library, you will receive ati2dvag errors even though it may be rooted to something different.
In this situation, it’s generally best to remove all ATI software from your computer and start from scratch. You can do this using the Removal Tool that ATI supplies with all its software. Reinstall following the manufacturer’s instructions word for word, using the supplied installation disk. Make sure that your drivers are updated and reboot the system for new changes to come in to effect. If you’re still suffering from those annoying display problems or error alerts, we can assume that either the ATI is incompatible, or a further third party force is interfering with the configuration.
Refer to the ATI website to diagnose whether any specific errors have been reported in regards to your operating system and the ATI configuration. Sometimes you will notice that the operating system is causing a problem – most notably when running off of Windows XP SP2. There are patches available from ATI for the known bugs that have been reporting. Scan these patches for any that implicate your own system configuration.
If, however, you are still suffering from the same problems, it’s worth considering that the problem is being caused by a malicious third party threat. You could, for example, have contracted a virus on to your system. While not all viruses are immediately noticeable, they can have some rather catastrophic knock-on effects if left to gather on the system.
Get hold of a good anti-spyware scanning utility and check for any interfering files. These may have contributed to the corruption of your drivers, and the utility will alert you to anything that needs your attention. You should also have anti-virus software installed to check for Trojans and harmful bugs – both of which can wreak havoc with your display configuration. They’re also a nailed on cert to pop up the blue screen of death and so should be treated seriously.
If you find any viruses or spyware, remove them immediately and then follow through with a re-installation of the ATI software. This will give you a clean run so to speak and it will tell you one way or another whether the driver files are suitable for your system.
