Rendering problem info

[Chronowraith]

I'm also an ATI user having the rendering problem. So far I have installed the directX off of the CD by manually clicking on the directX install. It said it was installing components and then said it was done. After that I uninstalled my ATI drivers and reinstalled the ones they had labeled as the newest on their website.

Here's my Init log:
