Hi, I'm not sure if you tried this.

Open Catalyst in Advanced mode
Go to Monitor Properties/Attributes
Disable EDID. Set the max resolution and refresh to what worked under XP.
Click Apply
Go to Displays Manager.
If not set already, set your prefered resolution, click apply. (and confirm
when the box pops up)
Set your prefered refresh, click apply. (and confirm when the box pops up.)

If this doesn't work, you probably should uninstall and reinstall the ATI
drivers.
