I was playing around with Ati Tool today. With a Thermalright HS, the GPU
temp was always below 47C even when running 3D Mark 06. So, I clicked "find
max core." It went up & up..to 840, 850 and then suddenly my PC lost video
signal.

Nothing too surprising here. Games that previously scaled well in Crossfire

In eternal optimism I installed these after reading the link First of One
provided about restored functionality for AGP card (Barton 3200, X1650 Pro
512Mb, XP Home SP2) and was immediately treated to the dreaded "Zero Display
Service Error" . Restoring to the Cat 7.5's made it ...

Is this a quality manufacturer? I am currently looking at their hd 2400 pro

The hardware probably don't mean much unless you are a workstation user. I
just read the article for the pictures. Nothing quite like two massive video

I've an ABIT RX300 PCIe on my ASUS A8N-SLI-Deluxe mainboard.  I bought
the RX300 because it was inexpensive (I'm not a gamer"), was PCIe, and
had a DVI output.
Since the system was built two years ago, 1 boot of 3 or so gives me

whenever I try installing ATI MultiMedia Center v9.08 (or earlier,
like 9.06 or 9.03) it never finishes.
It begins by extracting the files, then setup begins, sort of.
Once setup starts, it immediately minimizes to a tab on the taskbar

I had this long plea for help from the ATI videocards newsgroup ready to
go, and just before I hit the "send" button I had a brainstorm.  So now
that I've solved what seemed at first to be a real puzzler, what do I do
with this long message I've spent so much time writing?  ...

I'm a Vista user and I'd like to switch to 16 colors. I've been using
this mode on xp until i got my vista copy. "List all modes" does not
have 16 colors anymore, and if you have any clue on how to move to

I'm running XP SP2 with an HD3870 & CCC 7.12.
Sometimes I get no video signal after coming out of the standby mode.
Everything else seems coming back except the video. The card seems to send
some signal because my monitor comes out of its sleep mode but shows

I recently recieved my second HD3870, I tried to set up crossfire, the
driver installed fine, on reboot, when I go to device manager, it has a
warning against the first card, code 43. This is a software problem. I run
vista home premium 64 bit, a Q6600 @ 3.0Ghz, 8Gb ram, ...

What is the max resolution that the X800 256MB can support when running dual
monitors?
I'm currently running a single 24" at 1920X1200 on DVI and was wanting to
add a second monitor, either a 20" at 1600X1200 or another 24" at 1920X1200.

I am setting up a system for our school's auditorium that will be used
to project various forms of media onto our rear-projection screen, and
I'm looking for an ideal combination of software & hardware that would
accomplish it. (we have the projector permanently mounted, and only 1
