Rivatuner problem.

J-Man · Oct 4, 2007, 11:49 PM

Ok, so recently I overclocked my graphic card with Rivatuner but when I went on the application just now, I saw the speeds have gone back to default. I moved the bars to obviously overclock the GPU then clicked apply then ok then I just went on just now and the bars have gone back to default where they were before. Why is this?

Ok, this is more weird. Yesterday I overclocked the core (or tried to) and I put the settings from 500MHz to 600MHZ core but when I pressed apply, the bar went down to 591MHz and now I just put the bar back to 600MHz and when I pressed apply, it didn't go down to 591MHz. Strange.

Ahhh! I have version 205. I presume it's the latest. I did have 203 but I downloaded 205 yesterday and with the apply at start-up bit, it says Startup settings, then says "Apply overclocking at Windows startup. Start up settings: none". So that's why it went back to default cause I need to change that startup setting?

Check to make sure your pci-e power is fully plugged into the card. Rivatuner will do exactly as you describe if the card is not getting enough power....to protect it from damage.
