    x1950pro not playing COD4

    Well I've installed a different version of xp. Couldn't get FC or COD to run with 7.12 cats although COD tried to initiate but crashed with a pop-up saying DirectX couldn't execute or something (running 9.0c) which if anything is an improvement.:ohwell: I removed the cats and installed...

    x1950pro not playing COD4

    The way that I was doing it was - add and remove > ati removal tool > dcpro - overkill I know but I do like to make sure. ;) I'd be inclined to agree with you about the psu could I not run Far Cry with everything turned on. I'm gonna try a new version of xp to see if that's what's giving...

    x1950pro not playing COD4

    Come to think of it ATI got me to download 7.12s for this card so you'd think they'd know which ones are good for it :twitch: ... still I think I should try out the 7.7s just in case.

    Yup Namslas90 I been through all that already - I used DCpro ever single time I tried different drivers. Where can I get the 7.7 cats from?

    x1950pro not playing COD4

    HI guys, s'bin a while.:toast: I got COD4 at xmas but my 16 pipe x850pro AGP won't play it because it's one shader shy of the minimum 3 so I pulled it and got a x1950pro to sit in its AGP former home. But I still can't play COD4 - it won't go past the splash screen :banghead: I had an issue a...

    card comparison please

    So reading between the lines, what I think your saying is (and correct me if I'm wrong because the info is a bit hazy here) that the x1600pro is slightly better. Yes? :wtf: :roll: Seriously though, thanks guys I'll give the x1600pro a body swerve and stick with my trusty X850pro...

    card comparison please

    I've just seen a Sapphire X1600PRO 256 HDTV AGP at a knock down price. How would it compare to my 16 pipe Sapphire x850pro?

    catalyst 6.4 HELP!!

    I installed the 6.4's easily enough, but my vpu temp has gone up 5C, I lost 2 sets of WDM drivers (which didn't install properly with the 6.3's - yellow "?" in device manager), gained ATI T200 Unified AVStream Driver (?) and when I move icons around my desktop they leave an annoying line behind...

    sapphire x800gto ultimate too big for my shuttle!

    Your drive cage must be modded, and if I remember correctly, the fan shroud has to be removed in order to fit the silencer. Some guys have had success with both the Zalman VF700-CU and the VF900-CU, although the drive cage still has to be cut. Do a search here (if you haven't already) you...

    I'm not sure that an ATI silencer will go into a Shuttle unless you're gonna use a can opener first. :)

    Sapphire X850pro AGP - help please

    dolf Here you go friend. I've had to post the pics here as my dumb web-mail server won't allow me to upload a file of this size. I hope these are good enough for you. If you would like me to concentrate in a particular area just ask, although I'd rather not have to take the hsf off right now...
