ATI MSI 5870 3DMark FAT Mouse And FullScreen Crashes
Oct 27, 2009
So having recently installed my new 5870 video card I was quite eager to start running some bench tests and checking out the results.
Initially I booted up Crysis Warhead and Flight Simulator X for a quick run and immediately noticed a drastic improvement with this card. Crysis was on FULL settings and didn't even flinch during gameplay.
Windows WEI improved from 7.4's to 7.8's on graphics (previous card was nvidia Evga 9800 GX2)
3d Mark Vantage on the other hand has got me stumped. My numbers are WAY lower than expected as they are showing way lower than with my 9800 GX2?! Also, the CPU score is coming up as one third of what I was getting before and I haven't made any changes to my CPU!
I suspect that this is a software problem with 3d mark, since everything else showed signs of improvement but can't understand where the issue lies.
I am running Windows 7 x64 & ATI 9.10 Drivers for 7 x64
Attached are screenshots from vantage after tests before with my old card and now with the 5870. The attached GPUZ shot on it's own is of my current config as well.
PS - the total score of my before pic shows '0' by accident, I believe I reset it at the time by mistake but the individual scores beneath are still valid.

I just bought a new Clevo P150HM about 2 weeks ago. Since then, I've played Shogun 2: TW (with DirectX 11 enabled), NFS: Hot Pursuit, Rage, Crysis, CoD: MW2 and Mass Effect all without problems. In the first couple of days, I also ran 3DMark06 and was able to go through the whole test without any problems.Recently, I tried running 3DMark11 and for some reason, it wouldn't start. I'd see the little blue circle next to the mouse spinning a little bit and then it'd disappear and nothing would happen. A quick look in the Task Manager shows me that it's not running at all. I then tried PCMark Vantage and the same thing happened. Then I went back and tried 3DMark06 and the same thing is happening with that too now. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing the programs as well as uninstalling my GFX card drivers as well as doing a Driver Sweep and then re-installing the drivers but still the same thing. My games still worked fine though.But now I've just installed Crysis 2 and it appears to be having the same problem. All my other games are working fine though. What could be causing this? I have DirectX11 installed as well as the latest Catalyst drivers installed. [code]

I have an HP desktop x64, win 7 32 i just did a factory restore 2 day ago but, I still have 1 of the problems I had before; the mouse on my computer will freeze for like 20 sec and sometimes causing the system to crash. Yesterday, it shut down on me and a blue screen popped up it said something about the drivers or bios but, I checked the maintenance and it said everything passed (good).

I got my shiny new Asus 5870 today and ran some benches you might be interested in reading.
Current setup
Q9550 @ 3.81ghz
4 x 1GB Crucial Ballistix 1142
Asus 5870 Stock
3DMark06 20,500
3DMark Vantage 14,896
I am having a problem though and hope someone can help as I have never owned an ATI card until today.
When the card is at stock settings it works flawlessly but when I overclock it even the slightest bit eg 5mhz I get weird figures come up from the core and memory sensors and a flickering on the screen.
I haven't been able to get the flickering screenshot but this shows the core speed reducing etc.
I have noticed when the card isn't being utilized it under clocks it to a core of 400mhz to save power and reduce heat no doubt but when its not at the stock clocks the power save changes the clocks to stupid amounts.

Allright so first my specs:Nexus 80%+ 800W psuCore i7 950 not overclockedAsus p6t motherboard8gb of ram, vengeance 1600mhz (2x4gb) seated in a1 and b12x 640gb hard drivesWindows 7 64bitNow to the issue, when I plug my radeon 5870 into the mobo, I can boot into windows and log in np, but when I install catalyst drivers etc, I crash in gui, except if I disable the card in device manager, resulting in me using the crappy on-board gpu. I first thought tyat the 5870 was busted so I plugged a brand new gtx560 in and it crashed at POST a few times, and then coming to the windows logo and crashing there. No error messages, and then I plug my 5870 (still no drivers) and windows boots up fine. I've re-seated everything multiple times, and checked wires and heat, nothing out of the ordinary.

Well I do not really know where to start. I've bought myself a new computer and I'm trying to set it up and completing updating stuff.
And Everything goes smooth until the installation of my new Sapphire Radeon Hd 5870 Graphic card.
I'm not any expert in this field and could really need some help, directions or what to look after to make it work.
I'm able to install all except the actual driver. The drivers I'm trying to install is latest from Ati's homepage.
The error message i get is following:
"Driver install: user must be a member of the administrators group"
Error During installation of newest Drivers
I've tried right clicking and Run as Administrator but nothing changed and I still got the same "result" or problem after that.
I've checked in my Administrative Tools -> Computer Management -> Local Users and Groups -> Users
And there I've checked that my User is a member of Administrators.
I've tried starting up a game (Aion to be correct) and got this error:
Error Message Starting up Aion
I've tried to install new drivers by selecting the location off the driver but then windows gave me a message that said following:
"Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date"
Picture shows Advanced settings in Screen Resolution
Picture off Advanced Screen Res. Settings
On my Motherboard, Asus Rampage II Extreme, It said that if you were running a single GPU card it should stand at the top Pci-e slot, so it's mounted after the manual.
I don't know if that makes me unable to try the 2nd or 3rd Pci-e slot to test the actual slot or not?

I've encountered this problem with games such as NHL09 and Shogun2. Problem is that when fullscreen launches the other monitor goes freezeframe or goes completely out, thus I cannot see the movie or sportsstream anymore on the secondary monitor, sound remains...
I need a global resolve so that when ever I choose to go fullscreen (such as gaming) the movie or stream or what ever is on the fullscreen in secondary monitor remains viewable and enjoyable by whom ever...

I have recently upgraded from Vista 64-bit to 7 64-bit. Before the upgrade I had installed and played many games (Battlefield 2 & 2142, FATE, Assassin's Creed, etc.) in full-screen mode with no problems.
Something seems to have happened after the upgrade however as now I am not able to launch some games and have had many difficulties with the others. I have updated the driver specific to my graphics card as well as the Catalyst ones and have checked all the other drivers for updates only to be told they were the most current.
On a related note, my Assassin's Creed is a digital download from EB Games. When I try launching it through DirectX 9 it asks me to insert the CD, and if I try to launch it by any other of the options, the CPU runs for about 5 seconds and then nothing happens.
I say nothing happens, but that's not true. A Windows Error Report is created roughly named AppCrash Assassin's Creed for each time I try to launch it.
As for the other games, FATE creates a process that runs in Task Manager, but nothing shows up on the screen, and occasionally Battlefield 2 does the same.
Is there something that I am missing? I am close to going back and doing a clean install of Windows 7 (instead of having the upgraded version) but would REALLY rather not have to re-install all the programs.

This problem for me is kindof hard to explain, When i open my World of Warcraft or Crysis with my sound on or even WMP running it distorts whatever sounds are playing horribly, Quite honestly it sounds like two trains colliding in your ears. Its disgusting, If anyone has had this problem or even knows how to fix this please help. P.S. I have updated my Realtek HD driver and still have this problem.

I generally like to have a clean desktop -- so I put my desktop icons in a familiar location. The trash can always goes in the bottom right, important computer shortcuts / folders in the top right, etc.. However, (I can't say how long its been happening) I use a lot of fullscreen applications (games, mostly), most of the time launched from Steam. When these games exit, my icons are randomly placed. I've noticed that they tend to be close to the top right of the screen extending to the middle of the top. They are not all lined up, there are often spaces in between them.

And not just fullscreen. Saaaay... Farm Frenzy? Or any other game. Computer makes a buzzing noise on EVERY game I play when it loads something from the game. It's not from the speakers, it's from the computer itself. What's the catch?

I am currently having a problem playing 4:3 game with no wide screen support on my 1440x900 (16:10) monitor. What I mean is that when I play it full screened, the game is stretched.
This was funny because It used to add the black bars for me on the sides to keep the 4:3 (800x600) ratio. But then disappeared after I decided to update my graphics card's drivers (Nvidia 9600 GT). I searched everywhere constantly over the net and this forums using the search for a solution but it only seems like people want to remove the black bars, I WANT them.
There are some solutions saying that I should check the "Maintain aspect ratio" selection in the Nvidia control panel, but because I don't have the "Flat Panel Display Monitor" option in my control panel (seen below), I cannot access it.

If anyone knows a solution to this problem, please let me know!

Since yesterday i have a nice new Sony TV, which i connected to my laptop by HDMI. Every time i want to play a game (for example Fifa), the game starts on my laptop and not on my TV. I can only play it on my TV if i clone my laptop and tv. Isn't there an option "start on TV" or something in Windows 7?

hen I watch fullscreen video in any application (VLC, WMP, Mediaplayer Classic), the taskbar appears at the bottom of the screen at random times. In other words, it seems like something is taking focus away from the video. I tried Googling this, but could not find any way to solve it.
