Troubless with HD3850 AGP 512MB drivers

"Can you deactivate 1 or 2 or more of your hdds for test only?"

i run test like 3 months ago ... with only one HDD ... no help

 

on sapphire site has this ... "450Watt or greater power supply with 30Amps on 12 volt with 2x4 power connector recommanded." (http://www1.sapphiretech.com/us/products/products_overview.php?gpid=227)

now i dont know ... if this is enought ...
http://www.upnito.sk/imggal.php?viewImage=20828f7eb5566d86dc41b1e96081593d

but i read some forums ... and there was the this PSU .. should be enought for this GPU in AGP version ... so i dont know ...

iam plug like this ...
http://www.upnito.sk/imggal.php?viewImage=01b4d0944ba9dbbe880381a22ef4e6f6 ... its 6pin for PCIe + 2 pin ... for make 8pin connector (i think it should be enought)

 

I think, you have enough power on your PSU.
You can calculate it here:
http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp
But read the Attention exactly:
The recommended total Power Supply Wattage gives you a general idea on what to look for BUT it is NOT a crucial factor in power supply selection! Total Amperage Available on the +12V Rail(s) is the most important, followed by the +5V amperage and then the +3.3V amperage.

Edit: I can´t open your upnito link in my firefox, comes always an error.

yea man i know this side ... btw ... 374W is recommended ... but problem is ... with that plug ... to GPU ... if there is enought amps. i dont know

My GPU connection by 6pcie pin + 2pin = 8pin

http://www.sendspace.com/file/7wau1c

 

My PSU has only 6 pin PCI-e connectors and my HIS 8 pin, so i use this adaptor.

Looks like yours, but i have 26 A on my 12 V and it works without a problem.

hey man ... did you check my pic ... that i post ... there is pic .. how i got plugged i use this ... plug ... http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules/NDReviews/images/FSPBS2/Dscn3909.jpg .. with one 2pin ... to make 8pin

 

hey man ... try to check post under you ... there is pic .. how i got plugged i use this ... plug ... this is new post ... but only 6pin pcie plug ... http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules/NDReviews/images/FSPBS2/Dscn3909.jpg .. with one 2pin ... to make 8pin

i hope that this links will work

 

if this is what you mean ... xAGP 3 MODE .................. 8X ... this i cant change (in BIOS) ... and i think ... a never try to set 4X .... maybe .... i dont realy know. But but now when i check in rivatuner ... there i can set 4X (AGP Transfer rate), but i dont try it

 

My problem with VIA Chipset was that any 3D Aplication would freeze / BSOD after few seconds of running.
From what I see, you can run the Aplications quite a long time, so I conclude that the problem will not be the BIOS.
If I had any part of my system runing more than 80 degrees Celcius I would be very concern about that.
May be your problem has to do with Temp´s. Take a look to it. Maintain your case closed all the time, otherwise the cooling system provided by the case is not working.

 

Dude - do you know what the "edit" tab is for?

 

yea man i know what for edit is. ... but this cannot be edit in bios ... only in Rivatuner.

 

You're spamming the thread - I'm surprised it hasn't been closed already.

 

hey man if you cant say something intelligent ... so dont say nothing ... iam trying to fix my PC ... and i need to respond to all advices, how it goes.

And iam spamming the treat ? ... man stop being "great", and if you cant help or say something relevant ... no like this "Dude - do you know what the "edit" tab is for?" ... just stay out of business.

 

Actually I did reply to you, in the first page - but you brushed me off.....:3eyes:



And stop spamming - looks like you're trying to get your post count up.

 

ok man ... sry ... i was thinking it was for me ... iam realy sorry

and this is why this thread is so "long" ... i am person ... who had this card about year ... maybe year and half ... i tried ... so many drivers and tests ... and ... games ... and settings almost everything ... and realy dont know how to fix it ... so i post every think ... that can be helpfull ... solve this issue. I post tests ... BIOS setting ... temps ... and i specify it because someone can not open links that i post (pics for example). And if i do something ... or set something else ... or follow the idea from threat ... i need to fast respond to user how it goes (cause i realy try almost everything, and if my respond can be helpfull ... for someone who post it ... and know how to fix it ... i realy need to say it to him/her as fast as it can be done) ... sometimes is this post short ... cause is nothing to say ... just "no help man" ... but sometimes i need to write long post (like when i check the temps and run furmark).

 

That's cool mate...

I'm just trying to help you really - if people see you posting 7 or 8 or 9 times one after the other, they will be less inclined to read your posts..

You can always give your thread a bump...



Have you tried posting in the ATI tray Tools section?
