Yes I did. A reinstall fixed that problem.

Now for my latest problem. Ran 3DMark 11 @ 1140/1575 1.25v....
380

Tried 1200/1575 and only scored 6799. Any ideas as to why? Not fully stable?

The Catalyst 12.6 BETA June 12 drivers are working awesome for me. I finally feel just about totally free with movement and responsiveness in BF3. The visuals are noticibly better too. Best driver imo since the Catalyst 12.4. thumb.gif

Your physics and combined score it much higher, probably due to a higher CPU overclock.

Some of his graphic scores are a good bit higher than yours

hmm are you supposed to use both crossfire bridges?

I saw on these forums http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=473490 someone say you're supposed to use two but I've only been using one...

I went there b/c I been playing Napoleon Total War for the Steam free weekend but with xfire I'm getting glitchy ui windows where they flash and blink.

I suggest you restrict your clocks to 1150 Mhz in CF. Also make sure your top card doesn't cross 80c under load. I say this in the interest of the longevity of your cards. thumb.gif
