no prob

wolf2009 · Aug 21, 2008

UPDATE : everything fine now , removed all registry entries this time, and reinstalled. now it runs .

ShadowFold · Aug 21, 2008

Tf2 runs alot better with AA on now

Wshlist · Aug 21, 2008

These 8.8 are a disaster on my system (winXP64), I get 'can't find compatible driver for your OS' when I install them, but they seem to install anyway, then there's the weird green screen with vertical lines each time I do a monitor change and that leads to bluescreens..... twice.
They added the video options you could manually add in older drivers via registry tweaks, but they removed some options from the 3D options to 'not confuse users' like the adaptive AA method dropbox.
Anyway it stayed stable enough long enough to remove them again and I managed to put back 8.7, so I'm relatively happy.
It's impressive though, that they now achieved blue-screening (WHQL) drivers, congrats ATI, you can do anything nvidia can!

anyone else having problems with 8.8 and vista x64 SP1?
all I get after reboot is a black screen and no HDD activity
I've already done 4 clean installs
I've already redownloaded the drivers
I've tried just the drivers, no luck

dark2099 · Aug 21, 2008

I am doing some comparisons with Vista 64 SP1 and have had no problems uninstalling 8.7 and installing 8.8.

Scrizz · Aug 21, 2008

do you think atitraytools may be to blaim?

gonna try....

thx for the reply dark

dark2099 · Aug 21, 2008

Yea, if you follow erockers guide in the general graphics card section on uninstalling drivers, he suggests uninstalling any overclocking programs before uninstalling drivers.

wolf2009 · Aug 21, 2008

wolf to scrizz, i didn't have any problems too .

uninstalled old drivers, ran driver sweeper and driver cleaner pro , rebooted into safe mode ran those 2 programs along with crap cleaner again . rebooted into windows, installed new drivers, and these are the first drivers that don't require reboot after installation .

Scrizz · Aug 21, 2008

it's just so weird
I've never had problems b4.

have no problems here. seem more stable then the 8.7 on my system :toast:

Fastmix · Aug 21, 2008

Defenetely most stable than 8.7, I have gained some performance, no game crushes and they have fixed a problem in vista media center where hd video was only a green screen with audio now I have video.

From what I have gathered great improvements from previous, if you have problems you should try uninstalling all ATI software, clean up with drivers cleaner, reboot and reinstall...That should do it.

merkk · Aug 21, 2008

I'am running vista-64 with the new 8.8 driver trouble free i set a new 3dmark-06 score for my self 16,226 . I also set a new hight score in devil may cry4 bench mark with the 8.8 .

Wshlist i had problems with crosfire and xp-64 starting at 8.3 drivers i think about moving over to vista .

Wshlist · Aug 21, 2008

Funny how no two people ever seem to have the same experience with drivers.
Just for the record, they do not work right for me on xp64 and I do not use any 3rd party tools (yet).
But I do have 2 monitors attached and one via BNC so it doesn't do the EDID identifying thing.

8.7's HD4870 Stock clocks Q6600 3.6ghz

8.8's HD4870 Stock clocks Q6600 3.6ghz

ben3003 · Aug 21, 2008

i think we cant tweak the bios for 8.8, when i use stock bios, the card ran perfectly, but when i used modded bios, the card will give black screen just before the welcome screen. Even i tried to use amdgpuclocktool to tweak it to 720 and straight away give black screen. HD4850 user here.

Scrizz · Aug 21, 2008

so maybe i should flash back stock bios,
thx ben

dark2099 · Aug 21, 2008

Here is a link to my comparison of the drivers with my 4850, couldn't get the 3870x2 to work, every time I install the drivers they say they can't find a device for the driver.

ben3003 · Aug 21, 2008

ok, even if i mod my stock bios to 1.2v, the card wont start also. I guess they are protecting those factory clocked card... DAMN!! Anyone can come out with a solution do share with us ya

erocker to wolf, FarCry has worked for me sinced I installed it on the 8.5's

farcry doesn't work for me eitther the steam version, hangs on load screen in def, will try these

resutoran · Aug 21, 2008

the 8.8 would not let me overclock at all using the CCC overdrive. reverting back to 8.7 allowed me to take my GPU to 880 and 1150 with stock bios.
