Graphics prob

Yeah id have to agree, a 9800XT doesnt need to be overclocked... its still a decent card by todays standards..

stop nortoning over clocking man! theres no game out that requires a 9800xt to be over clocked whats with you man?

Yeah I know but it's fun to run it all cranked up to max!

Overclock everything you can! Everything in my PC is overclocked..why? cause I can.

3.0@3.6

6800gt GS BIOS 420/1130

Good that you got youre pc up again.

Well the prob isn't really solved cause now it reboots after apprx 5 mins in windows. That or it hangs but often it reboots. Anyone know why?? My gfx isn't oc anymore and nothing els I have is oced

you positive you got rid of ALL your overclocking software and card is back to default speeds??

I don't know man, like I said before, you shouldn't OC if you have no need to, the hardware might be nortoned now, try reinstalling windows as a last resort, see what happens...lets hope you didn't fry your AGP slot or something, I've seen it happen before on my buddys system....lol he fried the norton out of it, you could actually see where it was burnt on the mobo.

good luck dude ;)

I overclocked my 9800 pro sometime ago, while not knowing what the hell i was supposed to do. Appearantly i've fried my videocard in the progress and it hangs just like yours. My card jams every 10 minutes or so in every game for 2-5 seconds.

In my opinion you overclocked your card so much (perhaps even above 430?) that it probably has the same problems as mine. Did you get blurry stripes while overclocking, if so.....

Good luck with it Hasse.

ATI tool works fine. Why the hell are you DLing stuff in safe mode anyway. Trying to bypass the admin rights on your daddys computer? lol

I told Hasse to oc 5 increments and then test it out see if he sees any artifacts, and then i guess he must have messed up. :Oo:

try this first go here and d/l the latest version but dont run yet. remove all your ati drivers from the control panel then run the driver cleaner. install latest catalyst or omega drivers.

If you read my post right you would have seen that I couldn't use normal mode cause it only reboots so I used safe mode to d/l it....Asshole!


Edit: It's my computer ;)
