My X1900 keeps bloody changing back to stock speeds! From what I have seen it seems to happen either at the end of a WU, or just at the start of a new WU.

Doing my head in now as I don't always notice until I have already lost about 3 hours worth of folding.

I'm using ATI Tray Tools, so.. anyone know why it keeps changing, and more importantly, how to stop it!

do you have it set up in some sort of way that the client changes the ATI profile when it starts up somehow?
i thought most people just start a profile, start the GPU client and let it run
unless you are doing it and its still somehow re-setting your profile, in which case i havent got a clue
 
I'll set it to the overclocked profile and let it do its thing, but occasionally it will decide it's going back to stock settings. I thought it was just between WUs, but I have just spotted it do it halfway through!

What gets my goat is if I manually change the clock speed during a WU it will EUE, but it seems the system is conspiring against me :(

i think that changing in the middle of a WU thing happens to everyone, you can get round it easy enough by stopping client, changing ATI profile, starting client again
 
Are you using ATI Tray Tools v1.2.6.949 or newer and have the Overclocking Method set to "Driver Level"?

If not then most likely your clocks are getting set back to stock as the result of the video switching bug which sets your clocks back to stock when you watch a video/movie on your PC.

If you have done both the above already then I'm out of ideas for now


edit: since using the above mine has never switched back yo stock clock speeds except when my machine has been restarted

^^

Unless you have a X1950 which in that case ull have to live with it or use ATi Tools forcing of clocks when it sees that the core has started...
 
Tis okay, I installed the new one then promptly had my PC crashed. I should have perhaps uninstalled the old one first.

Still, it's installed now, build 955 no less. All settings saved and I have set it to Driver Level.

Cheers for the help guys. Perhaps this info should be added to the sticky, at least for the time being.
