Have you tried the latest drivers from ATI's website?

Windows 2000/XP - Catalyst 4.9

It is generally recommended to use the drivers provided by the manufacturer of your particular video card.
Although it is using an ATI GPU, sometimes companies alter\rewrite code as well as perhaps accessing the GPU in a different manner electronicly for THEIR card.
I suggest you try both ATI's as well as your card's manufacturer's drivers to see which is best for you.
BTW, Are you aware that AMD (the "other" CPU manufacturer) BOUGHT ATI?
