hi all
i am using ATiTool .24 with CAT 5.8 on my Xpertvision Vanilla X800 w/ Zalman VF700 Cu.
It is o/ced to 460/560 and is good for low to mid 60c's temps under load.
i am noticing a strange problem with the games i play (BF series, FarCry, etc) in that i will be playing anywhere from 5 mins to 1 hour when all of a sudden, the screen will lock and the sound will loop on where the screen has locked. The screen will then go black (pc has not locked up), the sound will stop and then the screen will go back to normal and i can continue playing the game as if nothing has happened?
I log temps and everything seem ok, CPU is fine and GPU is good too. With the CAT 5.8 drivers i have disabled the runtime function so it does not run on startup. VPU recovery is also off. 3d detection is also turned off.
The only thing i havent tried is putting the .exe's in the 3d exception list. Will this work?
Are the screen black outs a result of ATiTool dropping to default clocks?
any ideas?
cheers
