Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
It's gotta be something you overlooked. I get between 7700-7900 on 3dm06 with the 1950pro crossfire config. Did you attach both bridges and not just one? Crossfire will not work without both. Also check your bios. Try running standard resolution though.. One thing I have noticed is these cards...
At this point I would definately say motherboard or power supply. If you havent got the hardware at home to test it find out if maybe a friend or the tech department at your school has a voltage meter you can use. Worst case scenario, RMA the board,PSU and ram just to be safe.
Check your power supply to make sure your getting a solid continuous clean feed. Go over your cables with a fine toothed cone.. And most of all, make sure your HSF is seated properly on your Proc. I know amds run hot these days and many times I have seen a mounting that is a millimetre off...
www.bootdisk.com will get you any kind of boot disk you need.. download a win98 SE boot cd.. select dos without cdrom support, when it starts loading drivers hit ctrl+c it shoudl ask you to cancel batch.. say yes and you should get a c: prompt.
I would think about an RMA, my wife has an x1650pro and it idles at 44 celcius and at load sometimes hits the high 60s, while that temp is safe it is definately not a normal perameter. My x1950 Pros idle at 42 celcius. This is all on stock cooling.
Try this, if you are not using the drives in a raid config, remove one from the system, also remove any windows irrelevant hardware IE. Sound card, spare video cards etc etc. Reboot and load to BIOS, reset to absolute default settings no overclocks and the like. Reload your windows xp disk and...
I've had the same problem in the past when using Vista during beta, and early rtm. When dual booting vista changes your boot sector (Vista boot method is different from xp) on the hard drive to detect both operating systems. If your lucky you can modify the boot.ini in XP to load only xp I doubt...
Got a bunch of stuff around and its time for it to go. All prices are in CANADIAN $$$ and I will work out shipping individually based on where you are, it will not be a penny more or less than what it costs (All shipping will require delivery confirmation). I have a brand new heatware account...
