Go to ati's website and get the the catalyst removal tool, then reinstall the newest drivers.
If you have a cheap mobo, you might have graphics problems.

In thier driver download section there is a utilities section for catalyst, right next to the drivers. You'll find it here.
https://support.ati.com/ics/support/...ge&folderID=27

Or browse like so:
ATI Customer Care > Drivers and Software > Utilities > Various >

BTW, what vid card were you running before the 9600SE (please don't say onboard,lol)

EDIT: Unfortunely, ATI's site is dynamic, so I don't know how well that link will work.
EDIT2: Try upgrading your chipset software. (Hyperion, etc)
