Thank god for that although mainly in regard to helmutcheese...

anyways yh boot into safe mode and run DC.
 
Yeah it did go a bit to far, i would like to apologize to the OP for screwing his thread up and to anyone else i may have offended.
 
I'm glad posts were removed and thread was reopened, I am saying sorry to the OP, I do get heated and thats my bad point but its hard to be new here and not get stick but I do not need it from another new user esp, again sorry to OP.

Peace.
 
I got the same problem!

Got my HD 2900XT installed and running, but it's showing up in device properties as "Radeon X1950 Series".

CCC reports it as a 2900XT.

Device manager reports it as a 2900XT.

I don't really care, unless it adversely affects performance. Cuchulain, did you find it hurt framerates/3D Marks at all? Just going to go run some tests myself to see.
 
9,701 in 3DM06.

Card is TOTALLY silent and doesn't go above 60C.

What an awesome piece of engineering. I'm more than impressed. :)

(Driver issue doesn't seem to affect performance).

I get 11,900 in 3DM06, I had to reinstall Vista to get it to recognise the card properly so I never really got a chance to bench it until now.

What's the rest of your specs mate?

I think a lot of mine is to with the fact that my card and CPU are both unclocked.
