Having some ATI problems super

rcjonessnp175 · 03-03-10, 04:31 PM

well as my sig says i have 5870 crossfire going and i just did a clean install of win7 64 bit and installed cat 10.2 and the profile app. Im getting screen flickering and really weird mouse movement will barely move then all the sudden move super fast as in mouse movement.

Also my fps max everything is stuck at around 30 fps??? also the deck watch binos the guys r carring flicker too? Any ati crossfire users out thier with any suggestions im going to try the preview version of the 10.3 and see what happens.

Have application settings, in CCC, thanks for advice

well i installed the 10.3 preview drivers and still no joy, then i disabled crossfire and my fps is now locked at my refresh rate of 60 so thats a plus i guess

though the mouse look movement is still jacked

Turn off Vertical Sync, that should help with the stuck frame rate.

rcjonessnp175 · 03-03-10, 05:15 PM

well my point is with crossfire on my fps was max or vsynched at 30 fps with crossfire off its now at 60 which is what i want , so looks like something is up with crossfire on this game

Hi,

I've had the mouse view problem too the first time I played the game.
After reseting the graphic details on high, AND rechecking "windows mode" (will still display in fullscreen), closed and relaunched the game :
- Mouse problem gone !

I've only played twice so I don't know if this did the trick, worth a try.

PS: using ATI 4870 HD 1Gb / intel i7 920

Hello,

I have the same problem with screen flickering.
I use a XFX HD 4890 & Win7 64
i´d used the Cat 10.2 & now i use the 10.3, but my problem is the same.

can a mod merge this thread into my post? "ATI card issues/fps/performance"

Guys, look for this post, might be easier to keep a track of all the ATI users and their issues...
cheers.

It's probably attempting to do AFR as it does not recognize the game. Unfortunately Silent Hunter 5 does not support this unless you turn shadows off (at least on NVIDIA cards).

Ok...my problem is my Card...
I have suddenly the same problem in Company of Heroes

CCIP · 03-05-10, 12:55 AM

Weird. It's not ATI per se since I run a 5770 and I've had zero problems with the game on it.

The problem is not restricted to ATI users only. I run it on a XFX 8800GTX and the screen flickers like hell... The binoculars of the deck crew flicker too. Sometimes when I turn very fast, the screen freezes and after turning my avatar slow it operates normally. I guess there are some bugs in the shader routines, because I can see screen flickers almost only on the water surface.

If your using SLI, then disable it for the purposes of running the game. Seems to act up for me.

Ya i agree, RTB, i have disabled crossfire and run on one card for this game, still get some flickering here or thier but its playable now, pretty game though i must say.

urfisch · 03-05-10, 03:01 AM

binocs are flickering with my card too...ATI 4870

BigBANGtheory · 03-05-10, 03:08 AM

I haven't got SH5 yet (so keep that in mind with the following), but in playing AvP this week I had a lot of problems with Catalyst 10.2 & 10.3 with my Ati 4890.

I went back to using 9.10 drivers which seem rock solid on my system.
