I think I remember a thread when it first came out that it did not recognize OC on ATI cards. Looking at your system, why are you OC anyway?

Keep in mind when you OC your system and then run a fairly demanding system resource like SH4, it will tax your system even further. So it had better be pretty stable and adequately dissipating the additional heat that both the game, and OCing in general, burden your PC with.

Perhaps tone down the OCing a notch and keep testing until you find that sweet spot.

Thanks I run with the side cover off and 3 fans blowing on it..The CPU never goes above 48C and the vid card 52C....I may try backing it off a bit..

It also wouldn't hurt for you to update your cat - 7.2 and 7.3 have both run stable for me with SH4 on an ati x700pro and since I upgraded, ati x1950pro.
