Have you got net framework 4.0/4.5 installed and fully up to date via Windows update? Windows 7 or 8? Do you have a anti virus that is interfering with the .mom process?

I think you can use them both but i have no experience with gpu tweak. However with afterburner you can just select the second gpu in settings. If you need to do that just remember to unstick synch gpu settings. You might get lucky and find you can control voltage and what not with one or the other.

afterburner, no probs, gputweak keeps wanting me to reboot.

any other FPS benching tool other than FRAPS?

Radeonpro, but fraps is easier.

its crashing bf4 for me, although gpu tweak is playing silly buggers, i'll sort that first then try again

Radeonpro crashing bf4? That's odd it doesn't do that for me. Did you disable 64 bit support in RadeonPro?

Try shutting down gpu/tweak/afterburner before starting bf4.

 

[Nickolp1974]

No in fraps, anyway, one of the problems is i have lost admin rights to win 8, so now sorting that. Bf4 could be crashing cos my matrix plat is stuck in safe mode, worked fine on its own, damn pc's argh

I feel your pain.

The admin rights is probably the main problem and its all connected. How did you manage to lose admin rights?

 

[Nickolp1974]

absolutely no idea, so i cant remove gpu tweak or afterburner, so instead of playing, looks like i have a night of googling and its not even good stuff

I have some filth that can ease your pain. Just don't show the other half or you might get disowned.

LOLZ

Ended doing a complete win8 refresh, then had to take windforce out, stop gpuz loading at startup, switch them round in there slots and now where up and running, yey!

Hows raedonpro work matt, what do i do with that?? Any guides for use?

absolutely no idea

Is it because of the 'auto log on' if you had it enabled perchance?

Afaik, when you set W8 to auto log on, it creates another user and plays silly buggers with a lot of startup type programs and it drives me mental at times.

Anyone know of a fix???

 

[Nickolp1974]

Hi tommy i didn't have auto log on with win8, i still dont know what happened there.

But once that was sorted my matrix play was still stuck in safe mode, this is when i took the windforce out, loaded up gpu tweak, noticed that this was set to load at start up, so i disabled that now it works. Sold the WF last night, xfire lasted a long time!! But thats so i can grab another matrix, hopefully they will play ball a little better together. And now the weathers getting cooler, i shall be able to leave the heating off with those 2 cranking away!!

You don't really need RadeonPro any more now Nick, micro stutter is a thing of the past. You can use it for an overlay in BF4 though as well as other bits and bobs.

As for W8 i use start8 and have automatically go to desktop when i sign in. I then type netplwiz and untick users must use a password when logging in. Restart. Do netplwiz again as it never sticks first time.
