ATI/AMD

I don't know what is wrong with ATI/AMD but when you call and you would like to talk to the tech. sup. they didn't even know what to tell you. we have more info. than they do. I was suprise when i asked a question to the tech. this moning and his answer was :(i don't know if there are a 10.4a and 10.4b where did you saw them ?) he gave me a ref. numb. and told me that some body will call

There tech support is useless. I told them my graphics card was acting up and they suggested I go buy another one

I've had isues will almost all latest catalsyt drivers (had to go back to v9.9) which is from August/Sepetember

the guy even told maybe the problem is about the video card.

Nope their problem it's about their last Catalyst/the HD Radeon 5830, by the way all the ATI cards are compatible with wista .

He was talking about when Vista was first released. ATI had major compatibility issues with it. NVIDIA had their own fair share of compatibility issues, but nowhere near as many as ATI had.

wista?..lol...(jk)

the guy even told maybe the problem is about the video card.

Now i hear that people are having problems with their cards and drivers...

All their video cards are compatible, the problem is just about their last driver 10.4

All their video cards are compatible, the problem is just about their last driver 10.4

you're not the only one with problems, I know other people with some problems too...

They have a problem with only the Radeon HD 5830 and the 10.4

Try upgrading to 10.5, just make sure you uninstall 10.4 first. http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx?p=win7/windows-7-64bit

I am going to try it. It's the new one.

What is the temperature of your ATI video card Don when you are playing and when you're not

I'm not sure. I'll do some check when I get back home and post them up. It probably won't be until Tuesday though.

i enable manual fan speed to 45% when i play games and it stays around ~60c to ~70c
