    The AMD Driver Thread

    Have you tried Firefox to see if it's actually a browser oddity? I believe Edge is based on a Chrome core these days.

    Another oddity with my 7900xtx/system.

    Indeed - also the fact that it was making the card play up whilst doing that too was confusing. Wouldn't have thought that was anything to do with transient spikes or card power draw etc jut working on desktop stuff. Perhaps there was a general drop in the 12v rail under high cpu/io load too...

    Another oddity with my 7900xtx/system.

    New PSU received today and fitted. Completed a full 20 loop stress test of both Time Spy and Speed Way benchmarks in 3d mark without any issues. Also copied all contents from one NVME to another and that was fine too. Fingers crossed hope this means the issue is now resolved. Will keep...

    Another oddity with my 7900xtx/system.

    Ordered a seasonic vertex px-1200, bit of future proofing and confirmed it has 3 seperate pcie power cables. Also supposedly newer standards cater for transient spikes better (which I was aware of). Should arrive early next week so will see how it goes.

    Another oddity with my 7900xtx/system.

    Indeed - think it's 7 years on this one? I'll have to see if I can find the receipt. Model was apparantly released in 2011 or somewhere around there looking at reviews, so there is a chance I may have had it long enough to be out of warranty. :O Also remembered I had a thermaltake psu...

    Another oddity with my 7900xtx/system.

    That is the exact model? Just found the box and it just says "Seasonic Platinum Series 1000W.". Probably pretty irrelevant now though since testing ok with the HX750 so will be looking to replace it anyway. edit: Just seen on the side label is says SS-1000XP Active PFC F3.

    Another oddity with my 7900xtx/system.

    Been using it with the card since I got the card earlyish last year, so yeah it's been ok since then. I think the PSU is getting on for 5 or 6 years old, maybe longer so probably due a replacement anyway. Can't recall seeing any build date or anything on it but will double check.

    Another oddity with my 7900xtx/system.

    PSU's are Seasonic Platinum 1000W (that's what's on the label) and a Corsair HX750W which is a good few years old. Yes, I was using the same monitor, display cable and refresh settings in the other pc, as well as same keyboard mouse etc - basically sat it on top of the main pc and moved...

    Another oddity with my 7900xtx/system.

    Ok, lots of head scratching going on here. :( To recap - Issue is that main pc has starting having odd issues when copying between nvme drives, and also it seems to be having issues in games too. In all cases, screen goes black, GPU fans go full whack and I need to reboot the pc. Seems to be...

    Another oddity with my 7900xtx/system.

    No difference with later driver. Even tried going back a version or two - 21.8 etc - same issue. Had a number of occurances whilst playing Frost Punk. Switched to my Radeon VII, installed drivers and played for hours without issues, even completed the game. Does seem something related to...

    The AMD Driver Thread

    It's not a gradual thing - and has done it when just copying files between NVME drives too. Card is sitting quietly, temps ok.... then screen goes off and fans go 100%. Windows event viewer says display driver xxx stopped responding and recovered. Although it doesn't recover. I...

    The AMD Driver Thread

    It's something related to the 7900xtx - playing Frost Punk I was getting black screens, driver timeouts and fans ramping up pretty regularly. Switched back to my Radeon VII - and played the game for hours, even finished it with no issues. Now exactly what it is about the 7900xtx is another...

    The AMD Driver Thread

    Nice, just seen the notification in the AMD control panel myself. Let's see if this has any effect on the display driver timeouts I'm getting....

    Another oddity with my 7900xtx/system.

    Well - was playing an incredibly intensive game (not!) - Frost Punk - for about 45 mins and.... picture went off, gfx fans ramped up and had to reboot. On reboot.... yup, card showing as disabled in windows device manager. So same issue - just for some reason it was easy to reproduce with the...

    ******Official Star Citizen / Squadron 42 Thread******

    Well, surprise surprise. Finally got an email through to support without bouncing and they have changed my email (and logon) to my gmail account.... and authentication code email came through straight away. Bloomin' thing. No idea why they have a problem with my usual domain (or perhaps...

    ******Official Star Citizen / Squadron 42 Thread******

    As stated - logon doesn't work for website either as it also asks for two-step authentication code to get on. It was accepting my email and password so that looks to be ok. It changed to the other email when I asked them to change it before, but again accepted it.

    ******Official Star Citizen / Squadron 42 Thread******

    Fresh windows install so yes, no old folders around. I downloaded latest version from their site as you're able to do that without account logon. Not sure on version but it has "(C) Cloud Imperium Games 2024" on it so must be latest version and not had any prompts for an upgrade. Says...

    ******Official Star Citizen / Squadron 42 Thread******

    This is a fresh install of the RSI launcher - not even managed to successfully logon yet to download the game files. I've not "failed" a logon, just comes up with a two step authentication prompt but no email so I can't get passed it.

    ******Official Star Citizen / Squadron 42 Thread******

    Problem is I don't get an email at all, nothing arrives. I've had no problems with my domain with other two factor emails from the likes of microsoft etc, so don't think my domain has been blacklisted. They've replied and suggested I use a gmail account instead. Having issues with their...

    ******Official Star Citizen / Squadron 42 Thread******

    Problem is that is won't log me in unless I respond to the authenticator code request to allow me to disable or remove it. Catch 22. Just had a response from support - they suggested that I change my email to a gmail address and try that. Sent a reply but it bounced. The amount of times my...
