    Hi guys, I flashed the bios of my hd3650, but now Vista doesn't work anymore: I can boot in ubuntu safe mode or stay in DOS but as soon as Windows is done loading I just get a black screen...
    Could anybody be kind enough to dump his bios using gpu-z and post it here or PM me the file?
    Also what are the 3d mode clocks?
    I found 650/780 in the original bios. Are those normal?

    Is there any soft like rivatuner but for ati cards that allows you to set the clocks for the different mode? When I use amd gpu clock tool and manually set the speed to 600/700 the card didn't crash but when I let the card act by itself it tries to put the clocks from the bios and crash....

    Catalyst 8.9 modded with mobility modder. Can I set separate speed for the 2d and 3d mode? Because the bios of the card tells it to go all the way to 680/750 and I keeps crashing but by limiting the speed to 600/700 everything is fine. My problem is that I don't want to have to reset the speeds everytime I want to launch a game or just browse the web.....

    try going into windows safe mode uninstall your display drivers. Then go back in windows normally and reinstall them again.

    Can you boot in safe mode?
    Sounds like windows explorer isn't loading correctly.
