whenever i installed the drivers on my 4870's in crossfire it would say the installion completed with "warnings". so i would look at the log file and there was some hardware info there, a few rows that has some info and said 'success' and then nothing in the errors section. so i had no idea what the warnings actually were.
after i would reboot and my computer would become unresponsive once it loaded into the windows 7 desktop with the hdd light constantly flashing but nothing was really happening... the mouse movement would be very jumpy to and i wasn't able to click on anything (apart from in the first few seconds of it loading the desktop).
i would have to force it to reboot with the bios reset button, and then sometimes have to do this a second time. then it would appear to operate as normal.
i assumed it was a crossfire problem but ive just taken out one of my cards as i posted it off to a mate who bought it. uninstalled drivers, crossfire game profiles and msi afterburner. booted into safe mode and used driver sweeper. booted back into windows, installed graphics drivers and still i get the "warnings" message but i cant figure out what the warnings are. this time however i didn't get the unresponsive mouse and desktop problems like when i installed with 2 cards in crossfire.
never experienced this until i went crossfire with my 4870's and thought it was something to do with that, but now im back to a single card and it still happens. so confused!! any ideas?? thanks!
