    Strange issue with new XFX 5850

    Best deal on a 5850?

    XFX, DOUBLE LIFETIME warranty. lifetime for YOU and the next person you chose to sell it to. go with the XFX, for whatever the price. I paid $309 i think for mine. So what, i "may" have paid $20-40 more, but i have a sickass video card. 39C idle, 57C load MAX. games are insanely rich:D

    4-way SLI tested on GTX 480

    mature as in, the drivers will shut off your fan, and destroy your graphics card, like some of nvidia's recent "drivers" http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/nvidia-pulls-196-75-driver-amid-reports-its-frying-graphics-car/

    there was a bad batch of nvidia drivers prior to the ones out. a buddy told me APPARENTLY the drivers would shut off the GPU fan, and kill it. MAYBE, you had those, and ure fan shut off and overheated??? or maybe because those drivers were bad, they just don't work for you?

    sapphire 5850 installed, error

    i did almost the same thing you are doing today. went from a machine that had a 8800gts and installed a XFX5850 I think there is POSSIBLY something to be said about whether XP will just use some "default" drivers and WORK, or if it is trying to still use the nvidia drivers for your ATI card...
