Hi there peeps!, first time posting here.. :eek:

Anywayz, it seems the GPU-Z (tried a few versions till latest) doesnt seems to work on any of my rigs.

From my Gigabyte 8800GT TurboForce to my Gigabyte 4870... weird...

Basically, once i double-click on the gpu-z.exe... a startup pic (splash) shows up... and juz hangs there... nuthin happens not even an error msg displayed :p...
Its there something else i shld do?.. i tried clicking on the startup pic... nuthin happens...

Any ideas peeps?..

Btw, its there any other proggies that i can check my 4870 temps?..

Thanks in advanced for those who replied :)

Cheers :D

Both on WinXP Pro SP3, and normal setup on hdds, meaning no raid, and not using scsi adapter.

And oh yeah, i forgotten the annoying part its that.. when i try to start the GPU-Z proggie, it display the splash pic.. then it literally hang my pc, i can't even do "ctrl-alt-del" to get into my task manager.. lol

So, i had to press reset button my pc case =/

Fyi, i tried different drivers already.. no luck there either..

Cheers :eek:

can you 100% reproduce the behaviour? which version of which antivirus are you using? any settings other than the default?

ATi cards dont have separate shader clocks. They are linked with the core.
