I have a X1800XT , now here is the wierd part..

When i use ati tool to overclock , if i load a movie either in a webpage OR just an xvid|divx from the computer the screen flicks , the same kinda flick you get when the graphics card goes from 2D mode into 3D mode. If i dont use ati tool ie i dont load it on reboot this doesnt happen, it also doesnt happen if i use CCC overdrive instead ati tool. This can be very annoying because if (i have it overclocked) using my overclocked gaming mode in ati tool instead of the default and i accidently load a movie in a webpage or movie player i can get a flood of lines down the screen.

this application doesnt do it...

Ati tool really needs a 3D switching section so it doesnt overclock for 2d for our x1800xt and x1900 cards

ATITool does have 3D detection if that's what you mean.

Nope i mean i want it do 3D clock change rather than both 2d and 3d clock change

Does that make any sense? :cry:

edit : just saw you are in kent, close to me... ;)

Think I get what you mean, not sure how you would do it though.

Do you live in Kent or just nearby?
