HD4870 fan controller question...

[Majeztik12]

I have a PowerColor AX4870 1GBD5-PPH gfx card. When the the card was first released, it had a problem causing the screen to flicker. They soon released a bios fix. I flashed it, and it fixed the problem. However in doing so, my ability to control the cards fan speed option was not present. Did I miss somthing in the bios flash? Is there an option in the bios, that will let me enable it? What can I do to re-enable it? Is there a third party app. that will let me control it? Thanks for any help.

Have you tried wiping the old drivers with driver cleaner and reinstalling them?

Either Ati Tool, (http://www.techpowerup.com/atitool/), or Riva Tuner, (http://downloads.guru3d.com/RivaTuner-v2.09-download-163.html), can control fan speeds on a 4870.

Yah, I did a total fresh OS install. Kinda wonder if I missed enabling it in the bios flash?!? I downloaded RivaTuner v2.24, and i'm back in business! Thanks.
