Yeah, I understand how that might work for an unstable setup, but that doesn't explain why it would work perfectly stable after a driver install. Thats my main focus. What happens with the drivers, its the same every time. They corrupt after an installation within windows mostly, thats how I can measure it most clearly.
is your card the overclocked edition?
have you updated the bios on the card itself?
ok the bios which included the manual fan control seemed to help some folks with your issue if it helps you are not alone these drivers are very buggy i am just trying to find a combo that may get you stable
Yeah, somehow I already had that bios. But corrupted drivers seem to be normal with ATI over time, only not this fast. I mean, I can play Dirt 2 for hours without a single hickup at Ultra settings 60Hz vsync with full fps, after a fresh driver install, but doing stuff in windows just messes it up permanently.
have you tried this hotfix driver
