Gotta love how that link sends you to register here! Squall, take any hints? Haha, love your sense of humor Regen xD | |
| Posted by Sazabizc on January 28th, 2010, 12:41 AM | Does this also effect the 5870 and 5970? | |

| Posted by Unregistered on January 28th, 2010, 01:20 AM | Thank you. I thought Cata 10.1 would fix this issue but it DIDN'T. | |

| Posted by Hawk on January 28th, 2010, 01:47 AM | Seen this issue... happened after 30 mins of COD.
Good you found a fix for it. | |
| Posted by JaySide on January 28th, 2010, 02:31 AM | Using the BIOS from first post and Catalyst 9.11 and so far so good. | |
| Posted by DarkLobo on January 28th, 2010, 04:15 AM | Haha, i think i will write a nasty email to Catalyst Team... i love ATi GPU´s, but i totally dislike the damn Catalyst. | |

I just gave up on ATI's low quality tech. | |
| Posted by krasno on January 28th, 2010, 06:43 AM | Thus, indirectly admitting you troll the forums. (And play with kittens, awwwww) | |
| Posted by squall_leonhart on January 28th, 2010, 06:44 AM | launching kittens out of a airpowered cannon is playing with them? | |

| Posted by HaZe303 on January 28th, 2010, 07:44 AM | I get these befre as well, made two bios updates on both my 5k series cards, and both are working better so far. But good to know I get same stuff as many others, then I can stop worrie its just me or rest of my system.  And thx for the advice, I actually got one of thos stripe screens after my bios update, but for the very first time, my picture came after 2-3 secoends and it worked again, did not crash or anything, not later either!?? So all of you haveing this isse, update bios ASAP. Use RBE 123 if you whant to edit bios, winflash doesnt work right now, but ATIFlash works fine in dos. | |
| Posted by mkey on January 28th, 2010, 11:40 AM | Inviting trolls to the board is never a good idea, IMO.
Also, my 4870 on factory settings was set to some 20ish% fan speed, that's just not only plain wrong, but stupid as well. Uber stupid. |

| Posted by nCaine on January 28th, 2010, 11:58 AM | So guys admit it, Your beloved ATI have fucked up.
And they dint say a word about it . They just quietly put out new bios to fix it .
Isint that just like nVidia way`s. | |
| Posted by squall_leonhart on January 28th, 2010, 12:03 PM | nah, nvidia would know its users are capable of modifying their own bios's and fixing it themselves  | |

Anyway, ATI fucks up on regular basis so am I missing something? | |
| Posted by darthcyclonis on January 28th, 2010, 01:47 PM | No.. You have not missed a thing. lol | |
| Posted by Nanogrip on January 28th, 2010, 04:22 PM | I haven't had any problems with my 5870, no crashes or vertical stripe problems, etc. Except for one and I think it is pretty dumb. My damn mouse cursor would enlarge to 10 times its size at random times. >: ( | |
| Posted by Regeneration on January 28th, 2010, 04:32 PM | How come every post on this site turns to Nvidia vs. ATI discussion?
As far as I remember... almost every hardware vendor in the market had problems with its products. And only consumer-oriented vendors had confirmed and worked hard to solve their issues. Does anyone remember Seagate and their HDD firmware issues? I expect to see the same initiative from both AMD and Nvidia.
If I remember correctly, owners of GeForce 7800 GS are still having black screen issues until this very day. But the fact we had to come with this article shows that AMD isn't better as well. People are having these issues for a few months now and nothing is being done to resolve it. I look forward to see some action from AMD's side on this issue. |

| Posted by krasno on January 28th, 2010, 06:48 PM | I did pretty much that, actually, and never had any problems with it. | |
| Posted by mkey on January 28th, 2010, 10:19 PM | Well people who did pay and got some issues, certainly wouldn't agree with you. | |
| Posted by krasno on January 28th, 2010, 10:49 PM | Well, there are things like free tech support, warranty and thousands of hardware nerds ready to jump for help at several tech forums.
As you can see, several workarounds exist ^_^ | |
| Posted by nCaine on January 29th, 2010, 05:31 AM | Dont You remember what You wrote 5 post up ?? | |
| Posted by Regeneration on January 29th, 2010, 10:54 AM | Fixed the broken link to the fixed BIOS on my first comment. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on January 30th, 2010, 05:30 AM | I'm concerned any software workarounds in either drivers or bios will result in me ending up with a dead card in a few months. | |
| Posted by Dyre Straits on January 30th, 2010, 05:55 AM | I've only seen this happen maybe 3 - 4 times in over a month of use. At present, it's not so annoying that I feel I need to do anything drastic to correct it. But, FWIW, here's my current BIOS information for my XFX HD 5770:
BIOS Version 012.012.000.003
BIOS Part Number 113-HD577AZNF70-113-C01002-101
BIOS Date 2009/09/26
If this was happening 3 - 4 times a day....or even slightly less, I'd definitely be looking for a workaround or perhaps even a replacement from XFX. EDIT: There's one other suggestion I came across that was mentioned on another forum: Disable AERO. That has fixed the problem on several PCs. |

| Posted by squall_leonhart on January 30th, 2010, 12:34 PM | its toms hardware,.. of course its full of misinformation  | |
| Posted by Pierre on February 1st, 2010, 05:42 AM | I had solved the flashing problem. Previously when my desktop or video is in 60hz mode, my screen will flash (turn black for a while). I had downloaded the firmware posted, using RBE 1.23 modify the idle to 400/900 same as UVD and flash to my HIS 5770. | |
| Posted by Dyre Straits on February 1st, 2010, 08:54 AM | Although I've had very, very few of these vertical screens in the month and a half I've owned the HD 5770, I've written XFX to see what they suggest for my particular card. I hope to have some kind of reply in the next few days. | |
| Posted by Sazabizc on February 1st, 2010, 06:22 PM | | | |
| Posted by squall_leonhart on February 1st, 2010, 08:16 PM | to work on a fix, they would first have to admit there is a problem. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on February 2nd, 2010, 11:05 AM | I have a Vertex 3D ATI Radeon 5770. Is it safe to forceflash to the BIOS in the first post? I tried flashing and it complained about mismatching P/N. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on February 2nd, 2010, 02:04 PM | Experienced 2 striped screens today on a 4 day old card. Should I give up on the 5700 series and get something else? The problem doesn't look like it will be resolved any time soon and just having it in my system is stressing me out, as if I am waiting for the next horrid crash. | |

for the record, in three months of owning my 5870 i've seen this happen once.
i am using the 9.10 driver (w/ccc) because it seems to perform better than 9.12 (and sparse 3rd party support for the 5870). when i saw the stripes, they were on screen for only a few seconds and it didn't crash pc or the game i was playing... | |
| Posted by squall_leonhart on February 2nd, 2010, 06:47 PM | i'll keep you updated on when it becomes worthwhile to upgrade to 10.x DOOMJESUS | |
| Posted by Dyre Straits on February 2nd, 2010, 09:02 PM | I'm actually using the 10.1 RC2 drivers now for a couple of weeks. In that time, I've seen this striped screen once. | |
| Posted by squall_leonhart on February 2nd, 2010, 09:09 PM | I've been informed that the beta and RC's actually fix more then the release kit. | |
| Posted by user on February 3rd, 2010, 12:12 AM | It occurs also in series 4850(on stock clocks) from XFX . (Black/Grey/ Screen., Sound Freeze. Verctical stripes., and Button RESET on CASE)
Problem not only at 5000/5800 series.
watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6kI-qD2W8w
Will solve please this problem???? | |
| Posted by Dyre Straits on February 3rd, 2010, 01:55 AM | My support ticket response from XFX:
________________________________________ We have received an update on this issue from our engineers that have been working on these issues with ATI. We are expecting a solution for the majority users that are experiencing this problem. We have been notified that the ETA with be within 2 weeks and we will let you know once that becomes available.

sort ya drivers amd lads! | |
| Posted by Dyre Straits on February 5th, 2010, 08:37 PM | XFX informs me that a Hotfix has been issued for the 5800 series. The 5700 series should get the fix within a week. | |
| Posted by Unregistered on February 7th, 2010, 05:14 AM | flashed the bios from the 1st post. crashed 2 times in 10 minutes. flashed to asus bios (October) in my gigabyte 5770. running just perfect, no crash in 2 days. | |
| Posted by AKILalmaZZ on February 10th, 2010, 10:30 AM | I'm using a Sapphire 5770 vapor-x and the only way to generate this issue is overclocking my native-2.6Ghz Phenom X4 9950BE CPU to 3.2Ghz.
I've a GA-MA790GP-DS4H mainboard
2x2GB OCZ 1066MHz
and a Raptoxx 600W PSU
even most demanding benchmarks nor havy games don't crash my PC on stock GPU-CPU clocks | |
| Posted by Haxiboy on February 13th, 2010, 04:05 PM | I have asus 5770 cucore and i have the problem too :S i updated bios and used ati's beta driver but it don't fixed it.... ATI Sucks   | |
| Posted by kilerfcb on February 13th, 2010, 09:28 PM | we must wait for hotfix.. :/ i don't like wait too long ;/ | |
| Posted by squall_leonhart on February 14th, 2010, 06:18 AM | Keep waiting, a hotfix can't fix an inherent hardware/firmware fault. | |
| Posted by kilerfcb on February 14th, 2010, 12:02 PM | I am curious if a fix for 5800 series fully eliminates the problem of grey and black screen | |
| Posted by pissed on February 15th, 2010, 08:59 AM | It didn't fix anything at all for my 5870. Tried every possibile solution. | |
| Posted by kilerfcb on February 15th, 2010, 01:23 PM | I suggest uninstall everything and install only the driver (10.1) my computer it steadily, once or twice per day will be done grey/black screen. | |
