Hi there everyone!
I've recently bought a Sapphire HD4830, installed ok, works great in games,
and I'm using latest drivers 8.12 from ati. My problem is that I still haven't
been able to run 3DMark06. I run the exe and it hangs showing the main logo
and the "detecting system configuration" message. I use the latest 1.1.0 build.

Also I have the latest directx 9.0c and running on windows xp sp2 os.

Could you please help me?

Thanks a lot mate!
This was really nowhere, I've been searching for hours!
Will try it now, but I think it will work fine now.

It worked ok! Here are my results:

I ran the test on xp 32 bit.
3DMark2005 15.580 points.
3DMark2006 10.780 points.

I guess it's all because of my processor..
But in games it does pretty well too. I play red alert 3 everything maxed with 8x anti-aliasing and it is very very smooth and fast!

I run Crisis Demo at 1280x1024 all at High, without anti-aliasing and I get a framerate of 25-30 on DX10.1 in Windows 7 with ati's beta drivers and without any overclock. I guess it will get better by the time new drivers come out. (i guess I only see DX10.1 as my card does not support DX11 as mentioned in dxdiag in windows 7. Did I mention it looks amazing?!? - Oh and now I have 4 GB of Ram).
