    Re: AMD Radeon HD 7970 Quad CrossFireX Stomps...

    Spent the last 3-4 Hr's messing with the 7970 on Win XP 64 Bit there's actually Drivers for Win XP 64-Bit on the CD that comes with the 7970. They are the only ones I've been able to get to install so far but that's about it. It takes forever to Boot up with the Drivers from the CD (5-10 Min's) & once booted up it's just stuck in 640x480 mode I think it is & the ccc won't come up to function. If I use the display properties to try and get to 1600x1200 mode the screen goes blank & I have to reboot again. I tried other latest drivers but they don't even install 12.1 WHQL was the latest, just get BSOD when using them & memory dumps after 5-6 Min's of being in Windows XP 64 Bit ... Will wait for response from VisionTek to see what they have to say before making any decisions about the Cards.

    EDIT: Will put the NVIDIA Card back in for now until I hear from VisionTek or some other solution comes up as the X980E Box is just sitting there now dead in the water & not running BOINC ...
