Yeah cheers! My HIS X1900xt and started showing glitches in crysis and a few other newish titles.
Just scanned for artifacts in this version of atitool, it doesn't report errors but says 'delta 247 in 2 pixels' and after a couple of minutes these numbers go up and yellow dots appear. Still reports no errors! Any Ideas?
Using cat 7.11 and it still happens if I put fan speed to 100%. Card is @ stock speed.
 
'delta 247 in 2 pixels' is an error as far as I'm concerned? :confused:

I had a BFG 7800GTX that had a similar error report, and that was replaced as faulty.

For it to be error free, it shouldn't report anything except the FPS.
 
Strange, cant seem to change between 2D and 3D clocks in the program...even when enabling the option to switch between 2D and 3D clocks when the program starts.....any ideas?
 
It's broke with the 2900/3800 Wizzard said he would fix it months ago but the useless bugger clearly hasn't.

He's hardly useless, ATi Tool has been an important part of enthusiast ATi card owners needs for years.

ATi are hardly supportive either, the new 2D/3D switch modes from the X1800 series took a long time to sort out because ATi would not release any information to him.

You don't pay for it, therefore you have no right to complain in that kind of manor.

I can complain how I see fit just because I don't pay for something doesn't mean I can't complain/moan about it in whatever manner I see fit, freedom of speech right?. It should be called NVIDIA tool these days since he does more tweaks for that lot than the ATi cards. I've hardly ever used ATi Tool it's always been about ATi Tray Tools but that is yet to support the R600 because the guy who develops the software does not have a card. ATi wouldn't give him a card and he didn't want to fork out for one which is fair enough tbh. The annoying thing is Wizzard has a card, knows the root of the 2D/3D voltage problem and personally explained to me it would be fixed in the next build. There are plenty other tools out there that do the job 1000 times better so he may aswell not bother anymore, seriously until he sorts out the voltage problem I can't see any real reason why people would use it over Rivatuner or one of the many other programs out there, it's dead in the water. My two penneth anyway.

EDIT : Just to for the record it doesn't bother me, I don't have a 2900 anymore so don't give a flying **** about ATi Tool, I can jsut use one of the many other programs out there that do the job 1000 times better as said.

Why would you complain about something that you've been given for free? Either use it, or don't - quite simple really.

This guy uses his free time to code a program and add features at peoples requests which is pretty damn hard considering not one person has the exact same setup as another hence testing for him is hard.

If there are programs that do the job better, then use those. You're a tad selfish for crapping on someone who is being charitable, he may have said it would be fixed but not everything always goes to plan.
