    You may need to look into doing the direcpll.dll hotfix. ;)

    I just copied both files over to the C drive and found it works flawlessly. Thanks fellas for the heads up on the fix.

    Also I like that I was running the GPU client of F@H and still managed to pull 120K out of the card...lol

    Care to elaborate on what "dual patch" exactly means?

    Does anyone with a P4 know why the Hyper-Threading option is grayed out?
    With this patch I can finally run the bench with vista 64 but HT doesn't work...


    EDIT: After the massive overdraw test I have a blank screen...

    I've solved the problem with the blank screen with direcpll hotfix. But the HT still doesn't work. :confused:
