I’ve been a fan of HP printers since the mid 90’s when I was given a LaserJet IIIp.

Unfortunately, I encountered an error with ATI’s Catalyst drivers for the card. When the system was running a heavy duty video game, or something else intensive on the graphics card, it ran flawlessly.
When it was seemingly doing nothing, I would occasionally get an error that the “display driver atikmdag stopped responding and has successfully recovered“.
