Strange 3dMark06 error...

[clawlan]

Ok, installed 3dmark06 on my newly built pc. it ran great, scored 5600. Now I try to run it and i get the following error:

I have an x1900xtx and am using atiTool beta (b/c its the only one that supports the x1900 series). Any idea why i am getting this error? Thanks.

looks like DX9c got corrupt. Try reinstalling italong with your graphics drivers

Yes, I've above problem once or two. Just restart 3Dmark06 and everything was ok.

the fact it still has the "beta" tag means it also dosnt do that properly..

i dont use it with my 1900 card.. perfect with the earlier stuff but still struggling with later stuff..

"beta" means not there yet.. he he

this could be caused by pestpatrol luanching for updates ,or even an I.M. app running..But I can bet some other software is starting while you are using 3DM06 !!!!My pestpatrole does that to me all the time .

Oh ya ,not that I think your directX is corrupt but it is a good idea to re-install directX every so often especially if you have demo games...It will usually improve performance a little too
