Catalyst 7.1 breaks fan control

I really need to be able to control the fan speed
on my X1950XTX... right now running stock it's
showing 69C temperature! My XP Home system
is locking up due to heat during use (games).

Can we get an update to ATI Tray Tools that
works with Catalyst drivers 7.1 (came out
Jan 10 2007).

 

I use 7.1 and fan control with no problems at all

 

Me too.
Check atitray.ini may be you disabled I2C or Overclocking

 

I have noticed this as well, and have the same issue as the user in posting this thread:

EDIT: Neither of those two things are disabled.

 

Oh so it was 7.1 causing it? i thought it was just the beta... :bonk:

 

Guyz, what kind of problems do you have??? ATT works with fan on deep low level so ATT can do this even without any Catalyst installed in the system! So I see no connections between new 7.1 and ATT. And do not forget that I'm official beta tester of Catalyst drivers, so I checking ATT with any new versions of catalyst before they will go public.

 

This is Driver level clocking , ive had NO problems whatsoever with 6.12's but these drivers and ati tray tools cause problems



Move it to 100% goes back to 0% , keep clicking reload it goes upto 30%.. I reinstalled ati tray tools as a test put it upto 100% and its working fine i save it to profile. Went to eat dinner came back fan speeds at 0% again , i am having NO problems with 6.12's But 7.1's are causing me grief with my fan

I noticed a few of my games started getting corruption and crashing thats how i first noticed about heat and my fan with 7.1

EDIT : In low level mode it seems to be working fine however in driver clocking mode it seems to be borked

 

Yep still working in 6.12 , im not going to touch 7.1 ever again... 7.1 was installed on a brand new formatted hard drive no previous drivers to it. Last thing i want is my graphics card to have the fan stop due to some stupid drivers

 

I have a lot of problems with 7.1 too. I didn't check fan , but I know that I can not overclock to the same values as for old drivers with 7.1. I have no idea what 7.1 do with fan! Catalyst has no function to control fan at all!

 

Back with 6.12 everything working as it should :dave:

 

Same here, went back to 6.12 because Fan control behaved erratically with 7.1. Now it´s working again.

 

I reformatted and went back to 6.12 and mine still seems screwed up (using Driver Level) with the x1950xtx.
