Which operating system are you running?

windows 7

Take out one card. Then try install and restart. if it works then shutdown and add the other card and see what happens.

I would normally think that's a problem but they were working just fine with 331.65 drivers. I only updated today bc I got AC4 and 331.82 is supposed to allow me the best possible gaming experience with ac4

 

[Keith Strout]

im going to reinstall .65, ill brb. let you know how it goes after reboot.

Well a bluescreen is rather weird. But happens. If its the driver causing it then you will sadly have to wait for them to update the drivers again.

It's the driver. I did 3 clean installs with 331.82. each reboot ended with blue screen. just reinstalled 331.65, reboot was normal.

AC4 is buggy as heck. I'm using .82 and 2X 770's maxed out I can only get 24fps. Most people have said that they're also experiencing the 24fps bug.

 

[ZionZA]

looks like all games coming out lately are buggy :\

 

[Keith Strout]

im using 2 670 maxed out, was using the 331.82 but everytime i tried to change a graphic setting in AC4 it would lock up and id have to end task to get out. Not to mentions the blue screen after each time I clean install and reboot. I reverted back to 331.65, works great but I'd like to get a better driver once they fix it so I can receive the best experience. Also, my resolution size (1920 x 1080) will only give me 60hz option, even though I have a 120hz monitor. Hope they get that fixed also.

For 120 hz you need a dual link dvi setup. Afaik. Or you using one of the newer hdmi cables

 

[Keith Strout]

Why? I don't understand. Works fine in all my other games.

 

[ZionZA]

Due to the bandwidth required to run at 120hz a cable is needed. Either a HDMI version 1.4 or dual link dvi cable. Just google and you will see what I mean.

All driver over 300 suck and fuk up pc with some cards

Actually since the 500 series came out. It sucks. But hopefully they start sorting out this crap soon

 

[Keith Strout]

I am using a dual link dvi connnector, its the one that came with my monitor BenQ XL2420TX. Also looking at the cable it say's Dual Link on the head. It's connected to it appropriate spot.

See AC4 gives me 120 hz options just not at my max res size.... think it stops at 1440x900 120hz
