    I'm just wanna make sure this isn't my machine but when I play DMC4 in DX10 I get inverted colors. However I can play DMC4 in DX9 flawless. I can play Crysis in DX10 so I'm curious if the DMC4 demo is messed up or there might be something wrong with my video card (but if there was something wrong with it, wouldn't DX10 Crysis crass too?).

    Sorry in advance if all the 7811FX issues are getting annoying lol

    Are you running the Japanese (or are they Chinese?) GPU drivers? I was running them and tried to play DMC4 and it wouldn't even initialize in DX10. I uninstalled them and then got the 177.92 drivers from laptopvideo2go. It runs perfectly fine in DX10 now. Hope that helps - otherwise I'm not sure what the problem is :(

    Drivers are stock atm. Also on a side note... my CPU and GPU are both very cool but my HD is constant;y 50+ is that normal? Right now it's at 56 after playing FFXI for 2 hours then idling for 30 mins
