Well, I've tried Counter-Strike: Source in windowed mode with CrossFire enabled and 14xAA, 16xAF and it runs at around 180fps all the time (I get around 140fps with CrossFire disabled).

But when I try to run any game in Full Screen it just crashes when it gets to the Main Menu of the game (basically when it starts rendering).

What's with that?

I'll give it a shot mate, Hopefully this problem will be fixed and i'll stop crying about CrossFire not working so well.

Might need to uninstall/reinstall game, and if that doesn't work I would try reformatting..wouldn't hurt, reformatting usually always speeds up a computer anyways.

Hope this helps.

Reformat = Does nothing.
Uninstall/Reinstall Game = Ahahaha, I'd like to see you try and uninstall 10gb worth of Steam Content and then download it again on a 512k connection.

I've tried 6.12 and 6.11, still nothing.. This sucks arse.

T_T... just delete the local content and redownload it when you are sleeping. MAKE SURE THERE AREN'T ANY OTHER PROGRAMS RUNNING AT THE SAME TIME SINCE YOU ARE USING A SINGLE CORE. Last time I ran Azureus to seed Pure Pwnage and after installation the game froze.

It has nothing to do with the game, Since it occurs with every other game on my computer including the "dxdiag" Direct3D Tests.
