    Just for some of you Users in Crossfire having issues you need to Edit ULPS Ultra Low Power State because this will ramp your 2nd GPU and BSOD crash or what ever it's a big issue for Crossfire users

    type REGEDIT right click run as Admin then go to system Control set ,I have pretty much shadowed in the reg-number and path with pics in order

    Now when you go to the ULPS section you want to right click to Modify and change it to 0 that's it you will do that on both of them 0001 and 0002 if you have three cards 0003 and edit the ULPS that will get rid of the issue happy gaming
    What's about the next line Reg-Z "EnableUlps_NA"?

    Does this trick works with Gpu Virtualization too?

    I am not sure i just did it for the power issues something worth looking into though

    AMD ULPS (Ultra Low Power State) Disable Tool
    Looks it had to be used when in 3D Game because of the second GPU running 99% (extra heat/watt). It doesn't happen when in 2D desktop.

    Thanks will read further!:)

    That looks funky but the versions are the same AMD must be trying to implement mantle in the code also it could be the number from the first driver used after a clean install

    The Catalyst Version is a Reg error as it did not get updated. Found this on AMD Gamer forum.

    Type regedit in windows search box (from start button) & click Enter
    Click on computer in the new windows that appears & press Ctrl F (search function)
    Type Catalyst_Version & press Enter , depending on the speed of your machine it can take 2-3 minutes if it's a slow machine (don't worry).
    Your first listing will appear with the Catalyst _Version it thinks you have (mine was 11.5 yesterday).
    Right click & choose Modify
    Enter 13.12 & press Enter
    Press F3 (find's the next entry)
    You will need to repeat this step (F3 & Modify) several times (8 times in my case) until you run out of listing's.
    Do Not edit anything else in the registry unless you know what you are doing (you'll break windows).
    When you have found every entry with the incorrect Catalyst_Version close regedit & restart your computer.
    I think this happen a year or two back and AMD corrected the error.

    What i mean is the number version is the original version installed on the PC
    You know some people keep installing over old drivers too that is why i mentioned this
