Force the Catalyst drivers to work on a FireGL - Page 3

Splaktar · Mar 29, 2008, 08:30 AM

The problem wasn't with WoW. It ended up being tracked down to the RAM that came with the machine being known to be bad: http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic...afbf2e4d29cc6f

I don't crash anymore, but I still have massive problems with overheating due the poor ventilation system around the GPU. I normally run WoW at 110-115 C which is way too hot. This is with the fan set to max speed. More info at http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic...=303069#303069

The best drivers that I could find for benchmarks and stability have been from Lenovo either via their update software or Windows Update. The other specialized/hacked drivers have always tested slower.

Anyone got a method/idea on installing Catalyst drivers on FireGL V3400?
