| 1170835 | 2011-01-19 01:51:00 | I once had a motherboard and graphics card that didn't work well together although neither was faulty, so it can happen. It was a long time ago though (Ti4200 anyone ?) And then there was my friends motherboard, I forget what it was, that needed a 12 step process to force a graphics card to work. And then not well. Sometimes newer hardware in older boards can be a problem. |

Looking throough event vieweer its saying his displaay driver is being blocked? try a motherboard tweak |

| 1170838 | 2011-01-19 04:49:00 | yeah vsync can be awesome. In any case, if your display driver is being blocked, try the amd driver removal tool to fully remove it, then restart the pc and then reinstall it, perhaps even going so far as to run it in admin privs right from the get go. Might be an issue with an antivirus program, or perhaps the permissions it's getting when it tries to modify files in program files. If that's the case, you could try installing the driver to a directory under say, my documents or something. Other than that though, it's a bit beyond my means. My setup works fine, both on the lappy and the desktop, and performance hits are usually solved by downing the anti aliasing or reinstalling the driver as i suggested above. |

| 1170839 | 2011-01-19 04:57:00 | Aah, when you said horizontal lines, like the ones you see when youre playing games with OLD graphics cards - I imagined something ancient outputting a low resolution interlaced signal. What you are talking about in relation to V-Sync is called screen tearing. |

| 1170840 | 2011-01-19 08:35:00 | Rog, yep tering, anway i was still crashing, i upated the bios (its a powercolor card) with an ASUS BIOS, got the same "your card driver is being blocked " message, put in my hd6850, it instale drivers automaically, then switched back, and drivers nstalled properly and now no crashes. Seems like a hardware/firmware incompatability with something. Conidering tis is fresh ( 2week old) insall it is odd | Mr_Olympia (7727) | ||
