has anyone else found that bioshock is crashing due to gfx card overclocks?

my 1900xt was solid at 715/750 1.6v. (watercooled)
now it just crashes in bioshock regardless of driver or overclocking tool
it's fine at stock
 
I'm fairly sure someone mentioned they had to clock their o/c back a bit in one of the bioshock threads in the gaming forum. But it'll be a pain to find.
iirc they had to drop it back 10/20mhz or so, don't think they went back to stock.
 
No probs here. Rig is clocked as in my siggy, plus the graphics card is at 650/972. Drivers are the 163.44 beta's released the other day.
 
Got my GTS @ 620/975 no problems at all here on the bioshock demo all looks awesome using the latest betas from nvidia.

However my mate had crashes and it was due to his EAX as stated already :)
 
Ran my 8800Ultra 700/2400 with Fan 100% all was fine.

Had X-FI Fatal1ty set to GAME Mode + 7.1 (sometimes can crash if not) assume it ran game in EAX HD 5.0.
 
I had to drop my CPU overclock in order to play it. It would just keep crashing if it was even 10Mhz over stock. Strange though as it runs through stress tests and every other game fine. It didn't seem to mind my GPU overclock though.

I'm sure someone with a 2900xt was having the same problems, seems more like an ATi issue.

Running my x1900 M/C with a substantial clock (and EAX enabled) and it ran flawlessly - not sure which drivers I'm running - i'll check if you like :)
