Got two problems with my New HD 5830

[dabread]

Hardware:

Mobo Gigabyte GA-MA785GM-US2H
CPU Type QuadCore AMD Phenom X4 9850
RAM 4gb ddr2 800
Video Adapter ATI Radeon HD 5830 (Cypress)

Software:
Window XP 32bit
Windows 7 64bit

Problem: When i install it it worked fine untill i turned off the computer.

1) There is no display after i turn off the computer then put in back on, if i restart the computer it work but when i turn it off, I hv to remove the card and put it back in and turn on/off the computer serveral times for it to read. Its like the Bios wont hold the GPU info. Other cards work fine, and i sometime put another card in then put the 5830 back and it works.



2) GPU idles at 60, its not overclocked but it seems amd overdrive is making it run at 400mhz gpu clock and 1000mhz all the time, so it dont idle. Where i sure online that its run lower idle.

however when i lower it down manually the graphics on the computer flickers ALOT.



Number 1 is the real problem. Any help??

That screen-shot is from a HD 5770. However, you claim to have a HD 5830.
Uninstall all drivers with Driver Sweeper, reboot and reinstall the drivers+catalyst.

Hi

see if this helps

In regard to your boot issue:

-Check and then double check all of your power and data cables are secure

-Remove and then re-seat your RAM

-If you got a power adaptor cable with the HD 5830, use this to power the card (may help)
