driver issue?

[rjk]

looking for a bit of reassurance on a problem i have been getting recently

gpus in question are the xfx xxx radeon 4890 in crossfire

seemed to start with random blue screens whilst gaming
the system sits there under prime/occt/linx with no problems

there seems to be nothing wrong with the overclock or the memory/cpu/board

so the issue seems to be a graphics/driver/software problem

the blue screens have stopped since i installed the 9.12 ccc

which is pretty good. i can now run stress tests on my graphics cards fine

things like 'fading effects' in games however come up with loads of flickering

for example, modern warfare 2 provides me with a horiffic flickery screen if a flashbang goes off near me. same with L4D2 if someone zaps me back to life.

i have gone back onto the 9.11 but not tested properly yet

anyone else experienced these problems with the 9.12s?

found this on Xs that confirms the issue

This driver have some problems with COD MW2, when you get flashed the screen will flickr

apparantly there is a new hotfix. cant seem to find it yet though

Missing Nvidia heh

to be honest,

yes i am

i wish i had kept my 285s and swapped them for reference layout boards so i could watercool them.

these 4890s have never been perfect

when they work they are fine

when they fail, they fail hard

i have installed the hotfix drivers

i get bluescreens with crossfire enabled

epic fail, back the the 9.11s i guess
