X1900 Drivers

I have the same card, HIS x1900, havin problems thou!!!

had an x1300 before and upgraded last week. Just put the x1900xt in, simple swap, booted it up, windows recognised new hardware and asked me for drivers, put in CD, all seemed fine. installed the catalyst again from the cd that came with ma x1900, seemed fine. Using Catalyst 6.5 i ran 3dmark05 and got 8719. (CPU= AMD64 3700+ San Diego) bout rite?

Problem is now thou, some times the screen goes blank when booting up, sometimes when applying new 3d settings in CCC. It sometimes thou, stretches the screen vetically beyond my monitors range. I can "scroll" by pushin my mouse up and down. Horizontal is fine, just vertical! Just updated to catalyst 6.8 as said in this thread, same happens? Anyone? Help?

Will a fresh windows install help, im open to other ideas

did u unistall drivers before u did this, i know same company ect, but not doing this can throw up loads of probs.
 
no, i just took the x1300 out and put the x1900 in and booted it up. i though you only had to do that for nvidia to ati and visa versa?
 
When I switched nvidia cards I didnt bother changing drivers, just took the old one out and put the new one in and havent had any problems :D
 
Fully remove the drivers with driver cleaner etc... and then reinstall them, you should always remove the drivers and re-install them even if both cards are ATi's. :)

Welcome to the forums btw. :)
 
lol, im only just getting used to CCC!!! it is a *** idea thou! do they offer a performance boost or just easier to use?
 
X1900 + Omega + ATI Tray tools = No overclocking :(

( For me anyway. Tried all sorts - Latest Tray Tools, AtiTool Beta 14, Beta 15, just would not work).
