PCI Radeon 9250

Do you have the ATI Catalyst control center installed? If not you can get it at www.ati.com (http://www.ati.com).

I don't know what is this?

Its a utility by ATI which enables you to control things on the card such as overclocking for one. Go get it and install it, with broadband should only take a few minutes.

I use these for my Radeon 9800 pro. The clock speed can be underclocked set to default or overclocked. Don't know what the difference is to the standard ATI control panel though, might be the same.

Yeah the Omega's work out nicely some times, I even use them for my X850XT at times.

I'm sure the control center is very similar.

How do you not have Catalyst Control Center already installed? That comes with your display drivers.

As for overclocking, I thought you had to overclock your card yourself. I don't know of any cards that overclock by themselves out of the box. Usually the company has a stock speed thats well below the max so that people don't blame the company cause their cards burn out.

Actually during my complete reinstallation of everything today Win update went and got the latest driver form ATI but did not get the Control Center. I just went to their site and pulled it myself and on their site there are 2 seperate downloads (Catalyst control center WITH drivers or you could just get the display driver).

What do you mean by your graphics card is overclocking how do you fix it? Do you mean you want to overclock and need instructions or it is overclocked and you want it back at stock or something else?
