0.0.22 beta

[W1zzard]

0.0.22 final has been released: http://atitool.techpowerup.com/ATITool_0.0.22.exe

- lots of fixes based on the great feedback after the 0.0.21 release, critical fixes are already incorporated into the 0.0.21 download
- added option to scanning settings: "disable screensaver while scanning"
- fixed ati fan control. for some reason ati defaults result in fan speeds > 100% to be programmed. this means that any fan speed >75% is actually 100% (cant run the fan faster than 100%). atitool fixes this by setting the right register on the temp. chip.
- moved fan speed registry key so its not lost every time you reinstall atitool

[pablofrogo]

I hope you enjoy making this, I'd hate to think you were doing all this work on something you'd rather destroy horribly and painfully. :p

[W1zzard]

nah its fun .. when it stops being fun i will stop doing it

[pablofrogo]

Good, I'm glad that you like it... ;)

[W1zzard]

update:

- gamma hotkeys are disabled when gamma control is disabled

[pablofrogo]

jeez, I only just installed the first one, lol. oh well :p

I'm only getting ~60fps in the 3d window... I presume this is meant to happen...?

[W1zzard]

hmmm dont think so .. i changed nothing in the rendering code

[Xenn0X]

Do i need to uninstall any previous version of atitool or can you just install it over the previous version?

Hi W1zzard, Am I doing something wrong here :confused:
For some reason this has been working with 0.0.21 :p

[Vigilante]

Just make sure ATITool isn't running or minimized to the systray and then select the repair or upgrade(That's a new one W1z) option when installing the new version.



Do i need to uninstall any previous version of atitool or can you just install it over the previous version?

*- added option to scanning settings: "disable screensaver while scanning"*

Yeah, thanks w1zzard.

[Vigilante]

No such problem here, Pablo. Did you turn Vsynch on by chance?

Hi pablofrogo!

Now it has happend: you´re the first to have my problem, which i already posted in the old forum, but no one´s had the same situation, even w1zzard didn´t know what to do about this! if you have fixed this problem, please tell me. i got it, when i upgraded from Cat. 4.5. to 4.7, now 4.9 beta, and my fps sank from ~188 to ~78! i thought, that the new Cat 4.7. was the reason, but I don´t think so now! Also 3D Mark 2003 points were minimized to unbelievable 2130 points, before i had ~5000!!!

hope you have the answer

thanx

[webwilli]

nice :p new beta :D

- fixed ati fan control. for some reason ati defaults result in fan speeds > 100% to be programmed. this means that any fan speed >75% is actually 100% (cant run the fan faster than 100%). atitool fixes this by setting the right register on the temp. chip

for which ati chip is this feature?

[W1zzard]

fan control is for all x800 and 9800xt (only the real xt not the pro's on xt pcb)

[DREXY]

some games like "ballance" won't work while 0.0.21 is on, also 3dm2k1 is having troble runing
while 21 is in the sistem tray :confused:

Yes I do... the same thing happened to my 3dmark scores... went from ~6270 to ~2137 :( BUT, I uninstalled ATI tool, (still ~2137) and cats 4.9 beta with DC3. Re-installed the drivers, ran 3dmark and hey look! 6393 :D Re-installed 0.0.22 and all is well... getting ~220fps in the window now :). Hope this sorts it for ya. :p

[liveevil]

no memory timings in this release?

[kovenant]

nope no mem timings

just installed and testing.........

"fan control is for all x800 and 9800xt (only the real xt not the pro's on xt pcb)"

you mean not for the r360 on XT pcb and XT bios?

thanx a lot!!!




HOLY F**K I NEED TO CALM DOWN :eek:
what´s wrong with my system, please help... :(

[W1zzard]

new build:

- no "scan running" message to log file right after start
- fixed crash in 3d detection for 3dmark2001 and probably other apps

[kovenant]

thanx for the new built w1zzard - i am running it now

[kovenant]

fan control is for all x800 and 9800xt (only the real xt not the pro's on xt pcb)

i have to say that the fan control is working on my 9800pro!!!

i have the r360 on xt pwa and i have flash it with the gecube 9800xt 128 bios and its super!
(overdrive etc...)

and i can use the fan control

[W1zzard]

kov: are you sure the fan is getting faster / slower?

[pablofrogo]

I DIDN`´T GOT IT BACK, F..K!!! :eek:
what´s wrong with my system, please help... :(
Calm down... You did what I said right? following the read-me instructions in driver cleaner? try again...

1. Uninstall ATI-Tool
2. Uninstall drivers following Driver cleaner's intructions
3. Install 4.9 beta from the drivers page (http://www.techpowerup.com/softmod/downloads.php) here at techpowerup.
4. Re-install ATI-Tool.

[Frozen]

Dun worry. I fixed it :)

[pablofrogo]

Oh, lol, how?

[Frozen]

Damn...look!

[W1zzard]

- added include list for 3d detection

[wolfran]

Thanks for the new build W1zzard.
I will try it as soon as i get home and see if this will fix my problem with 3dmark2001se

[LanksL]

Yes, i did all you have said! uninstalled atitool 0.0.20, even looked in the registry for any entries; uninstalled cat4.9. beta, again looked in the registry for any other entries, booted in safe mode, ran cab cleaner and the driver cleaner 3 with the instructions the author mentioned! installed cat.4.9.beta from !!!www.ati.com!!!, ran 3dmark03, got 2137 points again, got mad ;-), installed atitool 0.0.22 build 2, overclocked my radeon 9800 pro to the mentioned settings in my signature!!!

i donna know what to do...

first i thought that i destroyed my card when i installed the vga silencer, but after the installation i had a boost about ~ 110 3dmark03 points and about 23 fps more in the 3d window - atitool, AND then i upgraded to 4.9. and the misery began...!!! :confused:

???

[pablofrogo]

Try Cats 4.8

[wolfran]

I just installed the latest .22 beta but still have a problem with running 3dmark2001se. It just won't start when the 3d detection is enabled. I actually don't think the problem is with xp sp2 and amd64 because it works with atitool 0.0.20.
Does anyone else have problem running 3dmark2001se while atitool 3d detection is enabled??

[W1zzard]

yep sp2 + amd64 + 3d detection is an issue .. i'm trying to get my hands on a amd64 cpu for further testing

[nanobug]

Hi, I also have a problem starting 3dmark2001se when atitool is running although I'm just using an AMD Athlon 1400MHz (on XP SP2). If I exit atitool then 3dmark2001se will start, with atitool running, it won't.

Another problem I have with atitool is that it executes before mbm5 at startup, and so atitool fails to send the temperature readings to mbm5. I've been able to fix this by using a program called 'myrun' to delay the atitool execution at startup by 10 seconds which allows mbm5 to initialise properly.

Minor niggles anyway, many thanks for atitool W1zzard, it's very useful. :)

[BZB]

Does the fan control override only work when ATI tool is running, or does it "stick" like core/memory core settings once you have closed the program down?

I'm really asking if starting/stopping the program at boot time is enough to have the fan settings changed.

[W1zzard]

sticks like core/memory .. you dont even have to load atitool on startup if you want the fan control .. when the atitool driver is loaded it sets the fan speeds independant from any main program

[BZB]

sticks like core/memory .. you dont even have to load atitool on startup if you want the fan control .. when the atitool driver is loaded it sets the fan speeds independant from any main program

Ahhh, so you're actually saying that I don't even have to start ATItool at every boot time if I've already set it up with the core/clock/fan settings that I want? (sorry if this is RTFM).

[W1zzard]

this is only for the fan speeds .. to get your clockspeeds loaded you must load atitool

[Jeronimo]

Wizard, can you make sure the latest version of .22 is in the startpost. Because the forum uses a download per post, you need to find the last post where ATITool is the most recent version. First .22:
http://forums.techpowerup.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=14

Last .22:
http://forums.techpowerup.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=18

So you do not download a direct link to the latest version and this also unecessary polutes the forum with a lot of files.

[W1zzard]

i'll change the first post to have a link to the post with the latest version .. hope to change to build numbers soon

new build coming soon (hours) - i'll change the first post then

[W1zzard]

- Fixed rounding error in fan speed settings (#16)
- Fixed rounding error in font size display in temp. settings (#23)
- Added current fan speed display to fan speed settings (#22)
- Memory timings editor is active now- values are not permanent and are reset at reboot. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
- Gamma settings are reapplied when display mode is changed (#14)
- Gamma settings panel shows numbers (#14)
- Added fan control option "Try to keep GPU temp. at xx°C" - this option is only available if temp. monitoring is enabled
- Added mini stats to temp. monitoring settings page
- Several speed optimized artifact detection code
- Dump bios button disabled on 9200 until a fix is found
- Replace temp. remote / local by "GPU" / "GPU environment"
- Fixed cosmetic bug in temp. settings panel (#15)
- Fixed bug with log file max. size .. the value was interpreted as Bytes (#13)

[kovenant]

thanx w1zzard nice fixes :)

[Jeronimo]

Bios dump not possible on X800Pro. Other fixes are nice too but got a new request... on to the "bugs" section

[amd]

I have a basic question guys. If you already have an ati tool already installed on your computer, Is it necessary to uninstall the software before installing the new one? If You just install the new ati tool sofware without uninstalling the previous one. What will be the effect? Sorry for my newbie question. Thanks

[nanobug]

amd - I just run the installer for the new version and select the 'Repair' option. It seemed to update it O.K.

On another note: Should the fan control work with a built by ATi 9800XT? It doesn't appear to do anything here at the moment (no 'Current Speed' readout either in ATiTool). Driver problem maybe (running the beta doom hotfix cats atm)?

[W1zzard]

hmm should work then .. are you using some funky bios? do you have the overdrive tab? do you hear the fan changing speeds at bootup/windows start?

[MinuStrike]

Good job there wizzard ;)

[amd]

nanobug. thanks

[nanobug]

hmm should work then .. are you using some funky bios? do you have the overdrive tab? do you hear the fan changing speeds at bootup/windows start?

Thanks for the speedy reply. :)

The card is, afaik, a 'built by ATi' card made for Dell. The bios is the latest (afaik) bios for the card offered by Dell which enables the overwise disabled overdrive feature. Bios file is at --> http://ftp1.us.dell.com/video/BR74097.exe

Some details about the card;
Product Description: RADEON 9800XT 256MB AGP DVI-I VGA TVOUT - DELL
BIOS Part Number: 113A18804103
102 Part Number: 102A1880410
RAM Type: Hynix HY5DU573222A

I don't think the fan has ever changed speed tbh, either by watching/listening or viewing temp graphs in webtemp. As a note the 'current speed' in atitool doesn't register any value either. It just doesn't seem to be working for some reason.. :confused:

atitool still rocks though ;)

edit: Knowing Dell, and their 'funkyness', I guess I just need a new bios file..

[amd]

I have a question with the new features of atitool 0.0.22. How do you configure the memory timings when you have a gecube 9550 ee vcard? I don't know the default configuration (ras,cas) of the entrontech memory chips.

[W1zzard]

the values listed there are the values your card is running at

[Vigilante]

Is this by design, that it no longer shows the total run time at the top of the 3d-window when scanning for artifacts with the core/mem tests? If so, it would be nice to have that info being displayed.

[nanobug]

Hey W1zzard, I got the fan control sorted. I changed from a Dell bios to ATi as listed at http://www.techpowerup.com/bios/ and it now appears to be working. :)

*update: Although the 'current speed' now shows in atitool, and the settings do change when using 'dynamic', etc, it doesn't appear to have any effect on the actual fan speed at all (case open listening/touching fan). Even setting the fan speed in atitool to 0% doesn't stop the fan. I don't think the rpm is changing at all here. :(

The Dell bios that didn't work with fan control was:
http://www.techpowerup.com/bios/Dell.9800XT.256.Hynix25.bin (njrq6129.p06 v611)

The ATi bios that does work (see update) with fan control is:
http://www.techpowerup.com/bios/ATI.9800XT.256.Hynix25.bin (njrq4461.815 v611)

unrelated stuff

Sometimes the temperature values seem to drop out for no apparent reason when the card/cpu (?) is under load, causing small gaps (temp.chip) or a steep drop (gpu) in graphs in webtemp. I think atitool is the culprit as the temp values it displays will occasionally indicate values like "0ºC" or "20ºC". Got a screenie here showing it --> http://www.nanobug.plus.com/temp_afk.gif

...and here's a snippet from the log:
2004-08-29 03:28:14 Temperature: GPU: 71.0°C GPU environment: 49.0°C
2004-08-29 03:28:16 Temperature: GPU: 71.0°C GPU environment: 49.0°C
2004-08-29 03:28:18 Temperature: GPU: 20.0°C GPU environment: 44.0°C
2004-08-29 03:28:20 Temperature: GPU: 20.0°C GPU environment: 44.0°C
*snip*
2004-08-29 03:29:44 Temperature: GPU: 20.0°C GPU environment: 44.0°C
2004-08-29 03:29:46 Temperature: GPU: 20.0°C GPU environment: 44.0°C
2004-08-29 03:29:48 Temperature: GPU: 66.0°C GPU environment: 43.0°C
2004-08-29 03:29:50 Temperature: GPU: 66.0°C GPU environment: 43.0°C

On another note; could it be possible to send the fan rpm to mbm5/webtemp? That'd be great for seeing how it scales speed vs temp.. (and to check that it is working) ;)

Many thanks W1zzard. :)

[Sylvanas]

hey w1z excellent job on .22! i love the mem timings editor :) is it possible in your next addition to: when you load up your profile on startup and your core/mem clocks are set could you also load your mem timing configuration?

[acrowley23]

wizzard....with the latest version, the custom dynamic fan control settings, they are reseted after a reboot..
vers 0.21 is working correctly setting the custon fan Speed after each reboot!

great Work

I also noticed this and allready created a task on the bug page.

[W1zzard]

the total runtime not showing during scan is a bug which probably was introduced by the excessive logging fix

about the fan control not working: could you make a few high res shots of your card backside? i suspect there's more to working fan control than just the one part listed in the article ..

the 20° temp errors will be fixed in next version .. its right that when 3d load is high the card returns wrong values ..

its planned to make the profiles more flexible to save clocks, gamma, fan speeds etc..

anybody test the 3d detection on amd64 sp2 yet?

[lajos]

"- Several speed optimized artifact detection code"

Does this mean that the find max core / mem function may work now on X800 cards?

[MEtaMaNiAC]

After setting my 9800 pro to find new max core (extra cooling added) from 405 core and 460 mem I received an "Init of Findmax: Subsequent images are different" bug.

[mackan86]

If this is possible, what about adding it to the fan controll section: If in idle mode try keeping GPU temp on 45 and, If in loadmode try keeping GPU temp on 70. Because when I use keep GPU temp on 70 and in idle mode my card is 58 whic is too high for idle. But other than that ATI Tool is really a good program for us with ATI cards ;)

[corny]

Memory Timings is sweet, can't say i had noticed its presence until mentioned though lol!

What are the defaults for the XT-PE if anyone has them?

[Fish Licker]

anybody test the 3d detection on amd64 sp2 yet?

3d detection working fine with all the applications/games I tried so far: both 3dmarks, ut2004, farcry, jedi academy, kotor, broken sword 3.

I'm running A64 2800+ @ 2.5ghz and a X800pro, with WinXP & sp2.

Just one thing that's been bugging me since I went to A64 (with all versions & builds). Some programs won't run at all at times. Like 3dmark2001, it's just like clicking an empty space. I had it before the latest beta build with many programs and also none of the control panel items wouldt start when atitool was running. With current build it's otherwise okay but still 3dmark2001 won't always run, meaning that I have to reboot and try again and if it still doesn't run, reboot and try again etc... weird stuff.

Nevertheless, atitool is easily the best program for this job. Just this one tiny annoying bug :)
Oh and also ( ;) ) if I choose the option of trying to keep the temperature at a certain value (70 for example). It seems the spinning boost is kicking in only at above 80 and it eases it at 78 degrees already.

[wolfran]

anybody test the 3d detection on amd64 sp2 yet?

Great works W1zzard!!
The notepad bug in A64 with XP SP2 is fixed now.
However 3dmark2001 still won't run if I have atitool 3ddetection enabled.
Could you please check the atitool v 0.0.20 because it's one of the atitools that can work with 3dmark2001. Some of the older atitools (can't remember which version) also don't work with 3dmark2001 so I guess your 3ddetection method in v0.0.20 is the best one. Maybe you can copy it into the new one and that should fix the problem.

[wolfran]

With this beta version, there's an addition file called "atitool detection log.txt" in my c: drive, can I delete this?
How do I disable this?

[W1zzard]

"- Several speed optimized artifact detection code"

Does this mean that the find max core / mem function may work now on X800 cards?

no change in the accurary (yet) .. just the time that it takes for scanning one images reduced a lot

[W1zzard]

- Some fixes to "try to keep gpu temp at". It will only work while ATITool is running. If you close ATITool fan speeds are set to ATI's defaults
- Fixed temp. reading error which showed 20° on 9800s with high load sometimes
- Disabled creation of file C:\Atitool detection log.txt

[mackan86]

Nice job, will try it out

[wolfran]

- Disabled creation of file C:\Atitool detection log.txt

Nice jobs......thanks for the speedy fix.

[foreignkid]

Hey, looks like the fan control tab is back on 9600xt(4152)- I don't remember if you actually removed this earlier or put it on the to do list. I was thinking it was gone in earlier versions. I can't find the to do list...

[nanobug]

- Fixed temp. reading error which showed 20° on 9800s with high load sometimes

Gratias, although unfortunately it seems worse in this build. :(

The problem seems to change according to how thread priority is set... Anyway I've thrown a ticket on the bug tracker about it, #33 IIRC. :)

[W1zzard]

is this version better?

[nanobug]

is this version better?

Still much the same. I'll run some tests here and post a screenshot or something showing what it's doing..

bbiab.. :)

[kovenant]

it seems ok for me...... this is better the previus one reported for 1-2 secs temp=20c!

looking more for it

[acrowley23]

the hold GPU Temp function is working "a little bit" longer...an more accurate as before !
With Artifact Scanning ,holding the GPU Temp is working well for a few Time.....but then its walking out and the Temp isn't the one i have choosen first.
I used 60C to holding GPU Temp....but after a time it's over 70C again....(my default Temps never over 72C).
Normaly with 80% Speed i can hold easily a Temp of 60C... :)

The custom Fan Speed settings are resetting after rebooting again ,also with the newest beta version....

[W1zzard]

- fixed bug with custom dynamic fan speeds setting incorrectly at bootup

[snakegil]

This last beta build still doesn't work with 3DMark2001 :confused:
As the 0.0.21 but the 0.0.20 is OK
I hope you'll have a look with this bug because the old versions are OK

[nanobug]

W1zzard, sorry, but I can't give you much new info about the 0º / 20º temp problems. I was running some tests earlier today when a hdd croaked, part of a 320gb raid0 stripe. :[[[ Took hours running the tests too!

IIRC 04.0.22 didn't have the problem so much as long as the thread priority was set to 'low'. If it was run at normal priority the problem was much worse, mostly just showing 0º / 20º with the occassional proper reading. I think (?) it did do better than 03.0.22 though.

Man, I don't know, it's been a long day. If I ever recover my data I'll get back on it.. ;)

I'll get around to making some high-res pics of the 9800XT sometime in case you find em useful (to figure out maybe why fan control doesn't work on it).

[SLI_Fallen]

Really dumb question (for anyone). Will the card/driver/atitool work when *NO* fan is connected? IE: disabling any fan control/beeping/auto-shutdowns? I will be getting my Sapphire x800 Pro VIVO in a couple days. (after being part of the CDW/DELL/"insert company name here" x800 P.E. Pre-order debacle since may) I intend to soft-mod it to the P.E. but it will be watercooled, so no fan will be connected. Am I going to be ok with this or do I need to do something to disable fan monitoring?

[mc5]

The custom Fan Speed settings are resetting after rebooting again ,also with the newest beta version....
I concur and I forget to set them back to normal most of the time resulting in overheated gpu and hard lockup. not good. The fan values reset to zero after reboot .
thanks for the great program though.

[W1zzard]

sli_fallen: no problem .. if the fan isnt connected nothing bad will happen ... been watercooling my x800 for some time now

mc5: should be fixed with the latest build a few posts above

sli_fallen: no problem .. if the fan isnt connected nothing bad will happen ... been watercooling my x800 for some time now

Great! thanks. Since you are already watercooling (and since I dont yet have it in my hands) From all I can tell, it looks like the GPU placement (relative to the card), and fan holes, are identical to, say, a 9800 Pro. (since the core is essentially the same) Would you concur? This would mean my current GPU block would work. Secondly, that if the GPU placement is the same I can simply bolt it right in place. (my hoses are all copper, not very flexible. :) ) Second, did you put heat sinks on your GDDR3 ram? Voltage mods needed? (or just BIOS boosting) What kind of core/memory numbers are you getting?

Sorry to pester you but your the first W/C person I have talked to since deciding to go with a Pro VIVO. Rig specs follow...

yes its all the same .. no sinks on my memory .. gddr3 runs pretty cool
my pro vivo @ 16p runs around 560/600

MEM REFRESH_RATE in x800provivo@xt...is 54....how set?

[acrowley23]

hey wizzard...have you fixed the Doom3 surroundSound Bug with Audigy2 soundcards with the older AtiTool versions?
Haven't noticed...
Now I get solid surroundSound without close AtiTool or setting the Tempchip Task off to get it right!!..its still working without chrashes

[W1zzard]

not sure if the doom sound bug is fixed because i cant test it .. no ausigy .. i tried a few things maybe they helped ;)
