No gaming on 6956 ??

hi all......:)

i have been playing around with 6956 for a few hours now, just setting it up, updated the drivers & i finally got round to gaming & i cant game AT ALL...?? they install ok & launch, but just disappear, no error....nothing.

i tried my benchmarks & its the same deal, it just wont render anything complex...??

this will be a real bummer if they never got round to building the necessary parts to game...

so i just need confirmation, has anyone gamed on 6956 yet..?? or been able to run anything more complex than Aero...lol

did you use the the
forceware drivers by any chance??
if so can you confirm if it works or not if you uninstall...

nope..... just uninstalled the forceware 180.84s & let W7 install its own (which turned out to be 178.14)

still the same, the apps just disappear, the only one im able to get a message from is COH


i just cant get anything ''complex'' to run..???

It may have something to do with DX11?

it just seems like they stopped building under the hood, & kept making the desktop prettier....lol, the default W7 games will run so i know there are drivers installed & the board & card are communicating, but she just wont game!!

ironic really, come's equipped with DX11, for chess & backgammon

hey then at least download dx 9 files just in case
directx_9c_redist.exe - FileFront.com

and check it they work

DX9 installed & still nothing...... oh well, i will just have to game on 6801 or vista
