I have been trying to figure this one out for a few weeks now.

Using 2 x SapphireTech Radeon HD 3870/512MB graphics cards in CrossFire

I have tried the 3 latest releases of ATITool pretty much just to get the fan control

With all of the versions of 0.27 released so far, I get ATITool running, and
within less than 5 seconds it gets shut down by Windows (running XP Pro SP2)

I have used ZoneAlarm to prevent dwwin.exe, dumprep.exe, and Dr Watson from running
and yet still this behavior persists, and I can't get into ATITool to set the fan control I want.

Thanks in advance for any tips and hints, or even for just pointing out my boneheadedness somewhere in the mix :p

Oh, and btw, I have been getting this behavior across a new format and also just using 1x HD3870.
 
but really, this is kinda frustrating, y'know? preesh any hep you guys can gimme :D
 
Not sure what your problem is but it sounds like some sort of conflict...Ati tool .27b works great with my 3870.
 
on the CCC on my PC, on the Tuning page, there is no choice listed for fan speed control
 
ok, so this is still ongoing, even after another re-format

if anyone has ANY clues, I'd appreciate it . . . . T.I.A. ;)
 
ATItool has been pretty worthless to me for atleast a year now. The program hardly ever gets updated. Try using ATI Tray Tools
