Asus HD 4870 Issues
Dec 7, 2009
I put together a rig not too long ago and have been playing a few games with it and recently have had some major issues with the Asus ATI Radeon HD 4870 card.
The issue is that when I play Modern Warfare 2 or Oblivion the screen cuts to black and says no signal and the sounds hang and I have to do a restart to get it working again. I can play World of Warcraft for hours and have no issues.
Initially I thought it was a power issue so I upgraded from a 550w to 850w PSU. No good. I updated the video drivers to the newest ones as of 11/26/09 and still have issues. I updated the bios just incase. Still no dice.
I am almost positive that it is a graphics card issue of some sort because I put in my older Nvidia 7600 GT OC and it runs the games almost perfectly but I can't max everything out like I could on the HD 4870.
Anyone have any ideas of what it could be or what I can try to get this thing working?

recently i bought a 4870 graphic card. after installing it when i play a dvd or mpg2 files on windows media player the screen jumping like splashing. i installed K-Lite Software and played dvd on media player classic, my problem solved but in windows media player the problem is like before. what is the problem ?

i have Windows 7 ultimate x64 and the drivers to run my ATI Radeon 4870 work and have already been installed when i switched to windows 7 from windows vista.
I try to download the control center where i can overclock and change settings for my PC and whenever they start to install i get the blue screen and my comp restarts... What can i do?
p.s i did go to windows 7 x64 on the drivers list on the ATI wedsite and didn't accidentally click another OS

I am experiencing a very disturbing issue with my newly installed ATI 4870 and my Windows 7 RC (7100). Prior to installing this card I had the following setup, which worked flawlessly.
nvidia 8800gt
intel p35 chipset in the motherboard
Samsung a656 40" LCD connected via a DVI to vga connector.
When I got my 4870, I uninstalled the nvidia drivers,rebooted, installed the latest (9.5) ati drivers and rebooted.
Then, I got a no signal in the monitor at the windows login screen.
Mind you, that when I (dual) boot in Vista, using the 9.4 drivers, everything is fine.
Things that I tried:
1. Creating a new monitor.inf file (located at the windows folder) using info from a post in this forum.- This should not make a difference, since I was using the same monitor.inf file in the same windows 7 installation, whitout any issues before I installed the 4870.
2. Changing the ATI .inf file to include only one resolution for the r7x cards 19 20 10 80 00 00 00 60- I think it sould be a refresh rate issue, since the vga port of the TV supports many resolutions, including 1600x1200 etc.
- It could also be an unsupported resolution, if the ATi driver cannot detect the monitor correctly.
3. Installing the windows 7 default ATI driver.
Things that I noticed:
1. I can login only in safe mode.
2. Low res mode (640x480) gets me to the login in screen, but as soon as I input my passowrd, I get no signal.
3. Changing DVI ports in the 4870 (it has 2)
Does anyone have any ideas?

I thought this was the best windows forum I found on the internet. Anyway. Yesterday I installed Windows 7 RC (currently build 7100) And the problems immediately start showing. If I decide to listen to some music the computer will crash after only a few minutes. It doesn't matter which program I use. Either I am using iTunes or Spotify it crashes. And I have no Idea what's the problem what so ever.
My computer has two Ati Radeon 4870HD graphiccards, and I have installed the latest drivers. I've seen some of you mention the HDMI Audio package to be the problem, but I don't know. When my computer crashes, it freezes, and the screen either go black or the picture on the screen is blured out in straight lines. Almost like a motionblur. I should mention I use two screens aswell.
When i restart the computer a bios thing shows up on my screen asking if I would like to fix something in the bios settings or just start. And then the classic "run windows normally, run windows in safe mode..." screen comes up.

Today I installed hd6850.I did a clean install with use of Driver Fusion(ex driver sweeper)And Im getting atikmdag.sys bsod when booting.I searched for atikmdag.sys in windows folder, and found 9 atikmdag.sys and 2 atikmdag.sys.mui. [URL] Can I delete this files, when doing clean install? An after cleaning with DF Im still having a lot of files wich begins with ati...sys(ATi technologies). Are they safe to delete. Im thinking, probably not. Or can I ,but not ones in amd64_microsoft-windows-w..ationservice .... folders?
This is minidump report:
[URL]
I know there are a lot of solutions on the net but nothing worked.I will try different version of drivers. But first wil try clean install with drivers only, without CCC. One guy did a extended research, and found aou that, without CCC, there is no BSOD.

I'm setting up Dual Monitors on my HIS Radeon 4870 1GB GPU. This GPU has 1 x VGA and 1 x DVI output. I have two identical ASUS VW222u monitors. I have installed the latest ATI Catalyst Suite and drivers for this GPU and have Windows 7 up and running with BOTH monitors.
My issue, however, is my primary monitor (DVI output) is running at my ideal resolution of 1680 x 1050, but my second monitor (VGA output) can not run at this resolution. It is only allowing me to choose from a small specific number of resolutions, and 1680 x 1050 is not included (closest is 1600 x 1200, IIRC).
The ATI Catalyst Control Centre is telling me the primary monitor is my ASUS VW222u (Digital), which is correct, but my 2nd monitor is only described as a "Generic Non-PnP CRT Monitor", despite installing the correct monitor drivers etc.
Is this because I am running this second monitor of the VGA output? Will that cause my monitor to not be able to produce my desired 1680 x 1050 resolution? And will running it off the VGA output mean It thinks its a CRT?

I don't want anything too crazy, just something I can take with me on my IT jobs...
I've narrowed it down to these two...
AMD - Asus X5 Laptop - Laptops at Ebuyer
and
Intel - Asus X5DIJ Laptop - Laptops at Ebuyer
The main differences from what I can see is. The Intel has the extra gig of RAM but the AMD has the better graphics chip.
I do not know how the CPU's compare.
I would be ever so grateful for some good advice.

I just put together an i7 rig today with the Asus P6T motherboard. I'm having a problem with it detecting any of my PCI cards though. I installed the latest drivers for Windows 7 from the Asus site. It claims the driver installed and reboots, but then it doesn't start auto-detecting my PCI cards. Therefore I can't install my sound card or wireless card.
Anyone know why it's not detecting my PCI cards.
Intel i7 920
Asus P6T
Kingston 3x2GB DDR 1333 Mhz
Creative Audigy 2ZS
Linksys WMP54G Wireless card
Windows 7 x64

I am trying to install Windows 7 on my pc (fresh install) I have the Asus P5N-D Mobo. When Windows 7 gets to the screen to select the drive to install it on, it's blank. I have tried the P5N-D driver disk. Have tried Vista and XP driver's but nothing seems to work. Is there any other reason why Windows 7 can't see my 250 gb hard drive? System specs below:
P5N-D
8 gb Ram
250 gb WD HDD
MSI 260GTX
If I left anything out just ask.

Just upgraded to windows 7. The only problem is that Windows blocks the drivers needed for my TV Tuner. A (ASUS PVR-416, Hauppauge Conexant 2388x (BlackBird))
I rolled back the drivers and they sort of work . They are not blokced but the picture is normal for about 30 seconds before going blocky and pixelated.
I believe this to be a driver issue, but can not find the right drivers anywhere, This Tv tuner came out my old HP computer. I have been to the HP web site and have used their drivers. They are all the drivers i have. The ones the get blocked or give me a bad picture.
I have contacted Hauppauge and ASUS and no reply yet from either.
Any Help would be great. I am a college student so I use my computer as my tv and do not have the funds to purchase a new tv tuner card.

So I am using the Asus M2A-Vm motherboard. Now, the board says it is ready for Vista and since people are saying that Windows 7 is pretty much backwards compatible, I thought I'd give it a try. I went from XP to Windows 7. The installation went fine, other than the long boot time(I'm assuming it's from BIOS or drivers).
Here's my problem. When I try to install the drivers the setup will start like normal but then say "Your OS is not supported".Bummer. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem with this board or know of a fix. I'm going to try to update the BIOS and see if that will fix anything since it hasen't been updated since '07.
edit: Because of this issue I've also not been able to install drivers for my GPU which is a nVidia 8600GT.

Thought I'd share a little bit of info I picked up while settings up Seven on my new rig.
Found that the driver CD that comes with the motherboard doesn't work off the bat. Auto-play doesn't like Seven for whatever reason, so what I ended up doing was browsing the CD and running the setup executable in compatibility mode for Vista, worked like a charm. Called ASUS to find out if they had any beta Seven drivers and turns out they more than likely will not be releasing anything until after Seven goes RTM. The only issue I still have is a list of System Interrupt Controllers as unknown devices in device manager. Aside from that, everything works great so far!

Since installing windows 7 i have the problem that when typing on my Asus pro 80 laptop the cursor frequently jumps to somewhere else in the text fields. This can happen in any application from word to like now where I am typing into a forum.
I am fairly certain that this is not a hardware problem as the laptop worked perfectly before doing a clean install from Vista .
What I have noticed is that the device manager shows two devices with drivers missing , but it cannot identify what the devices are. I have attached the screen shots showing this . maybe this has nothing to do with the keyboard issue.
Any help would be really appreciated as my lap top is virtually unusable as it is .

I just upgraded my laptop from vista to windows 7 ultimate and I am having a few problems that maybe some of you could help me with?
Well first off it doesn't recognize my flash drive. It shows up in the "Device Manager" but it doesn't in "My Computer". Could I be missing a driver or something? Also It wont read disks in "My Computer" Either? Like wtf I thought this was supposed to be better than Vista, but so far it just a **** load of problems..

My laptop gets hot while i play games on it, as most laptops do. But my laptop graphics card is getting so hot that i am getting green pixels all over my screen. I have a gut feeling the dots are from the graphics card getting hot. I noticed that this usually happens when i have it plugged in (Charging). I have a USB cooling pad on it but it seems like it isnt doin much.

Tried loading a clean install on my system.
Asus p5n-d mobo e8400 pro geforce 9800gtx+ 1 x ide with xp and 1 x sata with xp
Installed a new second Sata looking to get rid of the ide drive after install
everything disconnected except the new sata and a sata optical
Install hangs doesn't even get started many attempts.
Booted up existing xp on the existing sata drive and inserted windows 7 install disk. This caused the system to completely freeze no mouse movement nothing.
Booted up system with xp on old ide drive and inserted windows 7 install and it worked!
Had the install load windows 7 on the new sata drive.
All is ok but to load windows 7 now i have to boot via the old ide drive.
booting up from the new sata drive fails. so obviously can't get rid of old ide drive now.
So any ideas as to why the above has happened??(am suspecting sata driver issues)
And also is there a workaround to do a clean install direct to my new sata drive?

Has anyone had any joy installing Windows 7 Ultimate x86 onto a ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe?
I have a RAID0 configured using the Silicon Raid chip. I've had this running under XP, XP64, Vista64 previously.
During the install I get to the prompt (the old F6 prompt) to load drivers, I have download some drivers from ASUS, Silicon and MS but none seem to work.
I don't think it is the RAID0 that is really an issue as I also have another disk connect to the Silicon chip, that is not configured for RAID but it fails to detect that drive as well.
I've followed a few threads on here and other websites, but I cannot seem to get around this.
I've tried:
Silicon Image - Support | Search Results
Microsoft Update Catalog Some of these, but there are loads.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
