uninstall reinstall?
i just install the 2.0 the reboot if needed.
but keep all that stuff together in an ati file so you dont run into this sort of thing later down the line..
i have a massive ati and nvidia driver and software folder for each. this includes xp-32/64 vista 32/64 win7 32/64

Yes, I do the same, but it's been more than 2 yrs since I ran an ATI card, and I wasn't as diligent back then.  I ran a 5870 tonight.  Man, that thing is smokin'!  For a single GPU, it keeps pace with my 9800GTX SLI & can match a mildly overclocked GTX 295 in the older tests.

Mine doesn't clock as well as you guys, as I'm stuck around 965-975 core.  I didn't gain too many points, as I just robbed from my other global scores.  I'll take 20 points though!

so what all should i be getting so i can start a chiller build.  Im running 3 120.2 rads and a danger den tdx block on my 920 d0 at 4.2 max temp of 75c at 1.264v im just trying to get my idle temp down to room temp.  My room temp is 21c and idle temp is 42c.  So basicly I want to drop 21C.


You want to scrounge around and find a 5000 BTU (or higher if you just wanna be bad a$$).  Take the AC apart, and the part that gets cold (the evaporator) goes into a cooler, and you fill that cooler with a liquid that does not freeze till at least -30°F and you then pump that liquid through your (hopefully sub-zero prepped and insulated) waterblocks.

I was trying to unscrew my Classy last night.  It kept shutting down at random times.  Had me perplexed.  So I just started breaking it down to nothing but CPU with a slab of copper on it, and trying various ram configurations, and it just came back to life.  *shrugs*

Plus I just needed sleep so I called it quits @ 10pm.  that is usually unheard of.

sounds like you needed to re seat the cpu...
