NFS:HS and Radeon

Satnetwork, I feel your pain. I wish I can help, since the very same thing happened to me - right after the intro movie, the black screen, and then the game would crash. Have you tried running the game in Win98 compatibility as well?

I've tried every compatibility mode. No dice. After I install the latest Omega drivers, I'll give everything another shot and repost.

Time has escaped me as of late, so i haven't had much time to try lately. Thanks to all for your suggestions.
Now, latest Omega drivers had no effect either, so I'm going to drastic measures here. Hopefully tonight, if not by the end of the week, I will drop back to the first ATI released Radeon driver for XP and see how that goes. If that doesn't do it, I may have to resort to playing it in Windows 98SE. But wait!! I haven't gotten ANY games to work in 98SE since my last reinstall about 2 months ago. Every game makes my monitor go black due to "OUT OF SCAN RANGE". Sheesh!! Will this ever end!?
SO although I can't get 3D Acceleration in XP while playing NFS:HS, at least I can play games in XP. My only reason for installing 98SE was for older games that wouldn't quite work right in XP. Whiplash, Fade to Black (classic), and other titles that don't quite give me the best eXPerience in XP.
Oh well, such is life. After my latest attempts, I will once again repost with results.
