Yeah those zoom mods are "illegal"

It may actually have been me who was driving it. If it was I did reply to you... As has been said the tank was a "gift premium" for playing over so many hundred battles in the beta. It has never been available to buy and you don't see many of them being played. I use it simply because it...

What's the player base like? I keep thinking about getting it, but don't wanna bother if it's just gonna die out in a few months or something.

Yes they do, you place your order at the front desk and wait for them to get it from the warehouse.

Blame microsoft and their "edict" that any game where the joypad is the natural controller can only be played on PC with a 360 pad...

Just been linked to this thread from another forum, never usually look at this section on here. Amazing stuff I must say, signing the petition now, good luck!

Same problem with exactly the same card, I usually underclock the Core on mine, but might try it on the memory to see if that works on mine. Contacted XFX and they said because it was an "intermittent" problem (only happens on certain games, not on benchmarks etc.) the best they could offer me...

Just a quick update, borrowed a friends XFX 5770 today, and so far no crashes in the same games with same system other than the card, played the game on both the same graphic settings as before and on higher settings. So I think I can conclusively say that it is the card that has been causing...

Gonna try 3DMark Vantage to see if I get any problems in that.

Beginning to think I might just hold out till Christmas time and see what's available then for around £100. If it weren't for these crashing problems, I'd have been fine with this 4850 for a while...

Same version as on the card.

Done the driver clean, tried the card on clean installs of both XP 32 bit and Windows 7 64. Chkdsk finds no faults, same with memtest. Tested the card different PSU's, different ram, HDDs. I'm 99% sure that it's the card, as the problem occurred in the same games on a friends system. This...

I've tried everything on mine, apart from the vga bios update (due to warranty concerns, and there isn't an updated bios) and still no cure. To be honest I don't waste £10 for overclockers to do some generic testing, I've had some further contact with XFX, and they've said the best they could...

The thing is though as I say this problem seems to be a common one. In terms of your card a lot of people seem to have cured their problems with some of the latest drivers and vga bios updates have you tried that?

Yeah that's pretty much what I thought. Although at the end of the day the product is still under warranty and clearly doesn't function as intended, this problem I'm experiencing seems to be very common and therefore a known issue on cards such as the 4850 and early 5 series cards. It seems that...

Tried that already and no crashes after half an hour, and temps were getting higher in that than they seemed to get in games. Core max temp was 70c and the vrm 75c. As I say in Battlefield Bad Company 2 it crashes after like 30 secs so the temps don't even have time to build up.

Anyone?

I purchased this card from Overclockers on the 2nd April 2009, and it has performed fine on the games I was mainly playing at the time such as Battlefield 2. However recently on certain games Battlefield Bad Company 2 (now seems to crash on singlepayer about 30 seconds into the opening scene)...

Exactly the same problem here, with an XFX 4850 XXX edition. Am currently speaking to both XFX and Overclockers about getting a replacement, as I still have a few months left on my 2 year warranty. Seen as the problem can be very intermittent in its occurrence I worried that any testing that's...

Yeah it's definately enabled on the bios, and I've tried all the drivers I can find both from Asus and from Atheros. Looks like I'm just gonna pick up a card when I can, hopefully Monday.
