me too, I have a 7970 and a 5770, 7970 works fine and the 5770 doesn't accept shares! It does work when I switch the opencl.dll and the amd.dll's with the SDK 2.5 ones but then I can't use my 7970!

The 5770 is a horrible card get very hot and dies easily.

5830 for same price is better than 5770/6770.

Did you get it from a shop or ebay? Is it able to run games? Are you using Windows or Linux?

Thank you for the response.

Stupid iPhone autocorrect to openGL
I meant openCL. I installed all the drivers for the new card and got the OpenCL thing but when I open it it wants me to type in some code or something to link to my card. I can't seem to find a step by step for this.

Thank you,
Dan

Meh, you need OpenCL, not GL

Had guiminer running 45mhash on my GTX 550ti
Switch cards to a gigabyte ATI HD5770 and I can seem to get it to work.
It says it has connection problems. I downloaded Sdk and the OpenGL and I have no idea how to set this up.
The GTX 550ti just worked when I pushed start mining however the HD5770 does not.
I would be supper appreciative if someone could please explain how to set this up. It can't be that difficult as there are a lot of people using ATI cards. I have been reading for hours and all I could find what what I need
To download and not how to set it up.

Thank you soooooooo much,
Dan
