Dying Sapphire 5870?

DaedalusHelios · Sep 3, 2010

I recently got a good deal on a Sapphire 5870 and in games it does great with no problems. But when ever I launch flash it BSODs almost instantly. Ever since I got the card a few days ago this has been going on. My Asus 5870 didn't have this problem. I even tried updating the drivers to fix it and reinstalling flash but no go.

Any suggestions other than bad card? Is it the card? :shadedshu

:respect:

Problem fixed by using an uninstaller provided by Kenkickr on post #7 in this thread.

Did you go through the usual update catalyst, flash, chipset and sound drivers?

try a reformat then, install the newest stable release, install flash, and enjoy!

How do I go about doing that in IE? I have Firefox but I prefer not to use it.

I'll trade you my 4870 :roll:

Have you tried the flash cleaner utility for Windows, reboot, and reinstall flash.

IE Flash manual install and Other browser Flash manual install if needed.

Reformat is fine for everything except my primary rig which has too much in it configured to just jump to that considering my other 5870 had no issue at all. :wtf:

It worked somehow. :roll:

The simple solution worked! Only the second time in my life! :toast:

Now I need to buy that hard drive from you. :cool:
