MMC9.02 install hang

I have a AIW 9600XT and MMC 9.02 also fails at idriver.exe. ATI tech support
admits to the problem and said that it is happening only on some systems and
that they are working on the problem. Tech support said that there was
little difference bewtween MMC 9.01 and 9.02. I am running with Cat 4.10 and
MMC 9.02 without any problems.

I had exactly the same problem. Install 9.01 first and then 9.02, seems to
be a problem in Windows installer, if you look at Task Manager/Processes
when it is "hanging" you will see that Idriver is eating 100% CPU, Idriver
is windows installer. Hope this helps

Ohh trust me I know it was eating up 100% CPU I will look at
ATI's website to see what I gain by upgrading . It's working great
right now. Thanks for the heads up.

The only way I got it to install was to install an older version first then
install 9.02 on top. Although ATI doesn't recommend this, it works fine.
