Hi guys,

Still having trouble with my 5850 when i try to play games. The time i can play before having a problem varies but in the end my screen just locks up and then goes dark green before program crashes me back to desktop.

A couple of times now it has stayed on a black screen that says out of range must chooes a resolution and refresh rate that suits my screen. But i have dual dell eIPS displays that were doing 1680x1050 fine on my 8800gtx. Nothing but crashes in games on this radeon am seriously unimpressed.

Anyone got any ideas? tried the drivers recommended in another thread, have updated monitor drivers to see if that makes a difference but it didnt.

i get this when using 9.10 drivers

with 9.11 beta drivers it doesn't happen much.
