I started up 3Dmark06 and as soon as the benchmark went to the first loading screen, there was an odd flickering moving up and down the screen in bands of lighter and darker areas that kept going right into the benchmark itself.

When i run FRAPS to capture this, the fotos i get is without this promblem -but the promlem is on my monitor.

I have not this promblem in Vantage or games.

The cards are not overclocked and i have this issue with

Driver Packaging Version 8.67-091008a-090120E-ATI
Catalyst™ Version 09.11
Provider ATI Technologies Inc.
2D Driver Version 8.01.01.973
2D Driver File Path /REGISTRY/MACHINE/SYSTEM/ControlSet001/Control/CLASS/{4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}/0001
Direct3D Version 8.14.10.0708
OpenGL Version 6.14.10.9115
Catalyst™ Control Center Version 2009.1008.2132.36836

I cant use any other driver because they dont work in crossfire in my system.
This happens only in crossfire mode - each card seperate works ok

Any help?

Try using 1 Xfire bridge at a time in one position then the other. I've read they only need 1 bridge to work right.

If that don'twork try doing a clean uninstall of you drivers and a new install. I use crap cleaner, driver sweeper and clean ATI out of registry whenever I try a new driver or new card and my ATI cards have worked well.

DONE = same result

Format and new os instal = same result

If i run the cards in no crosfire they both works fine.

Any other ideas?
