Not sure about this one, a few peole have been having problems like this. Try creating a profile for your clocks and make sure all ATI services are disabled and VPU recover is turned off.

VPU recover is found in the Catalyst Control Center.

I'm not sure this will work, but there is a misc. option in ATITool removing the clock lock for Radeon 9000, 9200, 9550 and 9600, maybe you should try checking that option and try again.

Maybe 9250 is "about" the same as 9200? :confused:

Good idea, try it. I expect 9250 is part of the 9200 series.
