im having a problem installing any kind of 3rd party video card tweaking tool.
ive tried rivatuner and ATItool with no luck. im thinking the problem might be the os im using...
whenever i try to install the software windows pops up with a error message that says "this version of windows requires a digitally signed driver..." has anyone else had this problem? is there a way to bypass this somehow?
im using Vista Home Premium 64bit...

one more quick thing...i can use ccc to oc but dont think it works right because the clocks on in ccc dont match the clocks in gpu-z...something is not adding up...

Have you tried running the installer with compatibility to XP 32 and as Admin?

I'm the only user of my PC but, sometimes, progs only work with "Run as Administrator", suchs as ATIWinFlash, for example!

Don't know about CCC but, with RivaTuner, i set it @ 852, 856, 859 and 862 on the GPU clock but GPU-z reports it as being 850. However, if i set it @ 866, it reports it as being 864. Is this what you mean?

yea kinda, ill post a different thread about that because its off topic but i tried to reinstall atitool and rivatuner as admin with no luck, i didnt have the option to run 32bit compatibilty mode either.
