After You Fix Your ATI Card, Want to Get Paid for Playing Games?

For a limited time, readers of our graphics card fix-it articles are being invited to apply to be professional game players (not testers). We figure if you're running an ATI graphics card making use of the Catalyst software, you're probably using it to play games. If you're tired of the same boring job, unemployed and looking for a second job, or if you simply love games, you'll want to check out this opportunity from one of our partners.

Getting the MOM.implementation or MOM.exe errors?

These are tied to ATI graphics cards, particularly installations of the Catalyst Control Center, and most often occur when a user installs only .NET framework 2.0. To resolve this error, simply download and install .NET framework 1.1 as well. You'll also want to make sure that you are using the latest graphics drivers for your ATI card.

If, after installing .NET 1.1 you are still getting the error, re-install your Catalyst drivers.

Where do I find new ATI Catalyst drivers?

Since ATI was recently purchased by AMD, you'll need to visit the AMD website, and then browse in the following direction to find your Catalyst drivers:

• Under Support, click on Graphics Drivers
• Select your Operating System, followed by your Graphics Adaptor, followed by your Graphics Card Model
• Click on GO
• You'll be taken to a page that will give you access to the latest Catalyst Software Suite, and (optional), the latest ATI Multimedia Software

You'll want to completely uninstall your old ATI and Catalyst drivers, but before you do this, it's important that you find your original ATI CD - it has a tracking feature you'll need (ie. you'll need to insert the CD during installation) to be able to install certain ATI drivers. Once you've confirmed that you have the CD:

• Uninstall the old ATI and Catalyst drivers
• Restart your PC
• Download the suite software listed above
• Install the software components in order, beginning with the core graphics card drivers
• Install the optional ATI Multimedia Software
• Restart your PC (you may need to do this between each software component)

Once you've done this, you should no longer be seeing mom.implementation or mom.exe errors.
