I had the exact same problems with a 8800gtx, wouldnt let me install any drivers either, i fixed it by cooking it in a pre-heated oven on gas mark 6 for 6 mins.
im not saying do that tho.
Shouldnt 1 6970 be able to play nearly every game on max settings anyway? Ive just done crysis2 with everything rammed up to ultra settings with the dx11 patch installed, run spot on and thats with a 6950. People moan about the ati driver issue, ive had these cards since my first being a 9200 and i have never had any driver issues. And computers breaking and letting us down, isnt that what we love about them?
No i had the 6128k, with the disk drive, thought it was all top range and that, dont know what was with the green screen monitor tho. Used to love dizzy, dont think i ever completed any of them tho.
