    Hi to all, newbie here. I have the overclocking tool Trixx for my 6990 and every once in a while, like 5 times a day,the overclocking shows 0 on core and memory clocks. I checked in the bios and it's detecting discreet GFX card. usually if I restart my computer Trixx is working fine. I uninstalled it and reinstalled but it still happens.Thanks for any help.

    AMD systems usually have a switchable graphics option. When your on the desktop, do you use Fn+F7 to switch to the amd card?
