switched from nvidia card to ATi today.... having so many issues lol.

windows not detecting new card at all. theres only so many ways you can attempt to plug in a gfx card. and the fans are running so that leaves even less.

Should have gone a 2 x Voodoo 2 in SLI mode

Jokes i know nothing about gfx cards these days. Only in my younger days when I played Quake 2

Did you diagnose whether it was a driver or hardware issue?

bad move bro, ATIs so many problems

I paid more for my 780ti than the high end ATI cards for the reliability

when are we playing bf4? wasteland squad.

pretty sure its not hardware... me and the rest of the ATi world seem to have issues installing and getting the drivers running. So i'll keep playing around with it for a bit more, then will format all my hdd's and work from a clean slate (which is what I'm doing tomorrow anyway).

lol yeah Leigh, will see what happens when I can get it running. before purchase should have browsed the AMD forums to see all the frustrating, unsolved threads.

dont play BF4. had some fun with bad company 2, then they shutdown all the servers when BF3 came out. havent played it since.

I'd say driver related also, was gonna say use driver sweeper etc. but if you're gonna format should be all good.

Fair enough. Yeah I've had more issues with AMD than Nvidia in the past, now I just tend to stick to Nvidia.

Easiest way would be to uninstall the drivers from the installer, go into safe mode and remove any trace of the drivers (software such as driversweeper can do this) and then reinstall them. You're reformatting soon though, so I wouldn't worry about it.

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
