So you may have to install whichever driver will recognise your card then copy over the relevant files from 8.12....just a thought. ID: 27278 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I always copy and rename the 3 DLLs when running 9.X drivers. As a temporary workaround, i put my old 3850 back into the machine and removed the 4770. When running the 3850 with the 9.x drivers, I get VPU recoveries, too, so it does not seem to be a problem of the card. So I am back to 3850 with 8.12 drivers until a solution is found. I don't have the time to waste all my evenings or weekends trying to get the 4770 to run with MW. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade! ID: 27283 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Currently I tried to decrease number of simultaneously running tasks and to increase "frequency" (decrease max time for kernel run). But still blue screens time to time. Catalyst 8.12 onboard. Some more suggestins? ID: 28123 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
