Hey guys, I have a strange issues with my 5850 crossfire setup. When I boot the computer I get all sorts of screen flicker when I get to the desktop. If I reinstall the drivers it goes away. Or even more weird if I put it to sleep and wake it up it is fine as well. I tried removing all the ati drivers in safe. Mode with driver fusion but the problem remains :-(

Anyone seen anything like this before?
 
I got random screen flickering with my single 5850 sometimes when I boot into windows as well, and rebooting would solve it most of the time.

I believe the problem is with the PowerPlay/Idle clock issue with the recent drivers. I heard the latest beta driver solve it, but I'm not bothered until the official 12.11 driver is out.
