Does anyone know of a fix for display drivers for this card? just installed and keep getting fail logs for the display drivers in the CCS ....Tried installing from the CD and latest/previous version from AMD's site....card seems to work fine otherwise but my monitor isn't recognised so can max at only 1400x1050..games won't load at all

For the Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 5670 400 Watt or greater power supply recommended.

I believe you are in limits with 500W.

Also,is your bios update?

Another question, the card has VGA and DVI connection......I'm using VGA, could this be a cause of the problem or not at all??

Use gpuDVI<--wire-->HDMIt.v. connection.

VGA wouldn't stop Display drivers installing though surely? my monitor doesn't have DVI connection so I'll need to get an adapter, worth a try maybe

How do things look in device manager? Start Menu -> Right click Computer -> Mange -> Device Manager in the list on the left. Alternative method to get to device manager: Start Menu -> Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager

 

[gazurtoids]

The card is listed in device manager and says drivers are up to date and working

 

[writhziden]

Would it be possible to get a screenshot of the driver listed in device manager, and the properties of that driver as you have explained them? http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/9733-screenshots-files-upload-post-seven-forums.html

 

[gazurtoids]

Would do if I could, having problems with DM see thread http://www.sevenforums.com/general-discussion/219412-device-manager-blank.html .....got it back with sys restore yesterday, gone again today....pfft

 

[writhziden]

Alright, I am now subscribed to that thread and will see how things progress. Post back in this thread when you are able to get a screenshot of device manager.

 

[gazurtoids]

A new install of windows has fixed the problem..



thanks all!

 

[writhziden]

[gazurtoids]
