It's all about the game, and how you play it
I had an issue when i upgraded from a 5830 to a 5870 with 4.01 i had to boot with no radeon installed uninstall trixx reboot reinstall it and then reinstall the 5870 it was tedious but it got everything detected properly again.

I have tried v4.0.1 and it does not let me overvolt but it does let me undervolt. The only version that works for me is v3.0.7.

The reason why I want to get v4.0.2 to work is because it is the only version that allows individual control over each of my two cards, because one of my cards is capable of 1000mhz and the other is only capable of 900mhz, so if both cards have to receive the same settings I am forced to make them both run at 900

Disabling multi-gpu doesn't change anything. This is starting to get really annoying.

Have you tried using 4.0.1 instead? I'm sure you have but it's worth a shot to ask.

Are you running multiple cards on your rig? If so (and I'm not 100% on this), the "Synchronize cards in Multi-GPU config" setting may be to blame.

If I'm not mistaken, clocktweak is a command line based overclock utility available here.

It's not free. It costs 0.2 BTC.

On a side note: Any luck with system restore?

Unfortunately.
It didn't work.

My dates were wrong, I installed Windows on 7/12 and I think the problem started occuring the day after.

have you tried clocktweak to change the voltage?

Huh..
Is that a program?
Link please?

Both my cards are non-reference so I have "special needs" lol so Trixx is the only option (as far as I know) out there.

Hm...the oldest restore point I have is 7/16. I reinstalled Windows on 7/14. I don't remember when the problem started occuring. I think I'll try restoring it to then and see if it does anything.

Last thing I can think of: Backup your wallet externally and perform a System Restore to when you knew this wasn't a problem.

Yeah I tried loading a preset. Thr core and memory change but the voltage doesn't budge. What's interesting is that even in the registry it shows ID_OC_VOLTAGE_SLIDER set to 49c (hex code for 1180--1.18v)

I've already did a Revo uninstall, same thing happened. When I clicked scan, it only found some documentation.

If you're not worried about losing your profiles, try this.

Download and install Revo Uninstaller (Free Version). Find TriXX and use the Advanced setting while uninstalling. After the uninstall completes, hit next in Revo and wait for it to complete scanning. Once it's done hit next, check everything, and hit delete.

Hit next (or done, I don't remember) and then reinstall TriXX. If that fails, try the same uninstall procedure and install 4.0.1 instead of 4.0.2

That's very strange indeed.
Have you tried loading a profile that has a different voltage?
If you don't have one I can fire up win-7 and make you one and email it (or something) to you if you want.

Every combination of settings did not seem to change anything. I tried disable/enable load on boot and the same thing happens.

I think I'll try installing 11.5 and see if it changes anything.

Does this happen to anyone with v4.0.2?



It's really ridiculous, I've tried reinstalling but it didn't fix it. Funny thing is it worked a few days ago but one day I noticed it stopped auto-applying my volts at startup and noticed that I can no longer drag the voltage slider.

Help?

If you can fix this problem on v4.0.2 I will send you some coins.

Try going into settings and checking that the auto apply clock settings are checked as sometimes bugs in apps can undo this.sometimes it can turn out that the fix is so easy that we overlook it by mistake (well I do it,we all do it as some point) and then we find that things just work again.

I hope this helps :-)

P.S. If my answer helps,please send the bounty this way thank you

new catylst stops it working, Well it did for me.
Also dropped my mhash right down while making the card run hotter.
11.6 = rubbish.

Aha!
I found something in the registry.

I'll do some fiddling around with it to see if it changes anything.

That's just it, something did change, you could change voltage before and can't now.  Your problem now is figuring out what changed that changed trixx's behavior.

What could that be then?

The only thing I can think of is graphics or AMD-related updates, none of which I have installed.
