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.

    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
    • There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2.
