Hey guys,

Normally I would not spam the forum with stuff like this as usually I am able to figure it out my self. I just sold my Nvidia 480. And I bought the ATI 6970 graphics card. ( I wanted to run a full ATI set up) I downloaded and installed the catalyst 10.12 drivers. But now when I play around in the editor textures flicker around and I sometimes get weird white lines going through the editor. Also when I play FPSC built games my screen will go black and though my computer is still on I can't do anything about it but force restart windows.

Does anyone have a new line of ATI cards and is experiencing the same thing? I wonder if its a driver issue or FPSC issue. Can lee or someone else confirm this? Thank you!

Try running the 3DMark06 benchmark test. It's the dx9 version of the benchmarking software, and see if you get any weirdness. It's meant to test dx9, so at least it will narrow down the problem if it works or not.

try an older driver. I know that its a fairly new card but there might be an older driver that might have somthing the new one changed.

Just a thought.

Other Then that I would see if you could slow stuff down in the BIOS (For PCI-e)

Me = noob

and i love The TGC : )
