I downloaded and installed MS Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools and
checked and set permissions for my user account. Then I checked settings in
gpedit relating to ASP.NET etc. I also set services to their default
settings. I still kept getting the end program dialog. The event log entries
for ACEEvents kept returning as follows:

While the GUI for the catalyst control center is nice I've come to the
conclusion that it's just not worth the system resources it takes up. I use
process explorer from sysinternals in place of task mgr and it showed several
entries and a lot of both physical memory and virtual being used to run
CLI.exe. In addition the internal network traffic and port listening states
concern me as well.
I have spent more time trying to get the cat control ctr running right than
I've spent using it. I just set the AA and AF then leave it. So I uninstalled
the control center and replaced it with the control panel. No problems, fewer
resources, faster boot and shutdown. Hydravision still works. Until ATI
implements a version that actually works as well as being efficient, I'm
following the KISS principle and sticking with what uses the least resources
and functions well.
It has always seemed to me that anything that tries to do everything rarely
does one thing well.

I'm using an older Radeon 7000.
On an XP Pro machine several Catalyst Control Center Notification dialogs
load and often will not go away. I drag them and hide then behind an open
instance of WinAmp I keep on Monitor 2.
I setup another instance of XP Pro on a new disk last night and installed
..NET 1.1 and then installed the latest 5.11 release of Catalyst as well as
the multiple desktop manager. I then installed .NET 2.0. Each time the
system is rebooted an instance of Windows Explorer will open logged to
c:\Program Files\ATI\Support. What a PITA.
