Well, I've confirmed it's not, for me, tied to any monitoring software. I never used that stuff all the time anyway, and my GSODs persist even when they're all unloaded - i.e., whether I used just MSIAB, or nothing at all. But thanks for the suggestion, Tolyngee. However...I think I may have...

That's interesting and a little alarming. I do run SpeedFan, so I'll try disabling it and see whether that produces any change. I only started running SpeedFan after the problems began, tho, so I'm guessing/hoping it can't be a factor. Tolyngee, would you be willing to share what monitoring...

I haven't run any software like that aside from CCC.

I've seen folks say these issues have to be related to hardware problems on the customer's end, now that ATI/AMD has fixed all of the other problems via drivers, so I invite you to tell me where my problems lie. I'm at my wit's end. I just got a replacement 5870 from XFX via RMA, after...

Well, the nutty thing for me has been that Catalyst drivers 9.8A (which shipped with the card from September, despite the odd numbering) are rock-solid - never a GSOD. Any later Catalyst set (including the new 10.4 preview driver) gives me GSODs after durations ranging from 5 mins up to 30-45...

I'm a day-one 5870 owner and have been plagued by GSODs ever since I switched to Win 7 64-bit. I encountered none in XP Pro 32-bit - go figure. I was able to lessen the frequency of GSODs by slightly overvolting my system RAM, which nevertheless passed all-night memtest runs before the...

Still GSODs here - I have to stick with the September Catalyst drivers (which shipped with my card in October) because they're the only ones that don't frequently gray-screen my games. 10.2 offered no improvement, even with underclocking the GPU's core and/or RAM. I've been around the block with...

Chalk up another problem case. My XFX 5870 works perfectly in XP Pro 32-bit, but Win 7 64-bit sees all sorts of issues in 2D usage only. Gaming has so far been flawless, for probably 6-8 hours total; non-gaming usage sees driver failures and even occasional blue screens at least every hour or...
