3DMark06 keeps crashing out

gtir666 · 20 Apr 2006 at 21:08

Please some one help before my pc gets thrown out of the window! :mad:

Every time i run full default benchmark it crashes out halfway through cpu test 1 error message being "display changed" no matter what i do! I managed to get a different error message atleast "device unavailable" :rolleyes:

Ive done the usual uninstall reinstall program and drivers etc but no different :confused:

Ive put everything back to standard clocks but still no different.

Anyone any ideas??

Yeah ive tried all other 3dmarks except 05 and pushed the clocks back up played a couple of games in high settings like normal with no difference to performance??

Its frustrating because you do some changes in the hope of a tad better performance, and me being me everything must work A1 so when this happens i must sort it regardless of whether its actually having any impact on performance or not.

yup its a old boggo pci-e 6800, i think i get good results from it baring in mind ive also got a xfx6800xt which is no where near it in performance stakes!
