Just got my Sapphire X800 Pro today..

I've uninstalled my old cat 4.6's.. cleaned them off with driver cleaner afterwards and then did a new install of the 4.6's...

The thing is that when I try to oc the core with atitool 2.0 (the latest) the monitor just goes blank when reaching around 550 mhz on the core.. and I have to restart the computer.. this has NEVER happened when I tried to oc my 9800 PRO.. it never went blank on me or froze up... I would only notice artifacts when I oc'ed it too high...

So what could be causing this? Also vpu recover in controlpanel should be ticked off right?

Any help, comments, similair experiences would be nice if you wrote it down here... :)

Peace
