sapiens74 0 Posted October 31, 2003 Ever since I installed the 3.8 drivers my machine does something really weird, only after it comes out of a screen saver. This little box appears in the upper left hand corner, looks just like a TV tuner picture thats scrammbles, then the monitor kicks off, and it hard locks. Anyone else have this? my specs are here: http://home.hawaii.rr.com/sapiens74 Share this post Link to post
thatsteveguy 0 Posted October 31, 2003 No big probs here with the 3.8's but have had that happen the odd time in a game. Did you try to disable the VPU recovery in the ATI control panel? just to see if that does anything. and is the screen saver openGL? S Share this post Link to post
sapiens74 0 Posted October 31, 2003 Did those things in reverse order No lockups since the VPU thing turned off. I thought it was a service, but I guess not. Share this post Link to post
sapiens74 0 Posted November 9, 2003 Been there, done that Seems the VPU thing is the devil at least for me All seems to be well, for now GOt this other wierd problem though with RTCW Enemy Territory Anytime I reboot my machine, the game comes up in safe mode with all the setting lowered. The game itself never locks, and If I play it over and over without rebooting it works fine Does this with 3.7-3.9 Anyone else have the issue? Share this post Link to post
