Sinky Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Just to summarize a little, these are the scores now: AMD/ATI: 10 users with 6950/6970 have the issue 2 users with 6850/6870 don't have the issue 3 users with 5770/5870 don't have the issue It seems we can narrow the problem here to 69xx cards. Neg, running a 5770 with 11.4 and I'm getting black screen flickering when looking near the sun with HDR turned on. Haven't read the whole thread but I'm guessing that's the flickering everyone is referring to.

miguelaco Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 (edited) List was centered around white boxes anomaly only, but perhaps I should have specified. Flickering is happening in my rig also, mainly when looking at the sun so I assume it's the same problem you are experiencing.

Sinky Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Ah I see.

fourty03 Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 List was centered around white boxes anomaly only, but perhaps I should have specified. Flickering is happening in my rig also, mainly when looking at the sun so I assume it's the same problem you are experiencing. Funny someone brought this up - after I posted my gpu and hdr on / off comparison + info post here..., I get the black flashing (looks like screen tear a little) also.. I just maybe was not paying attention. Thanks for making the list - that way we can track to see if it's a 69xx series causing issues. I would like to try the 11.4c hotfix from the link someone posted.. I just cannot get the 11.4 base drivers installed.. (bsod during install) So it's a consensus HDR is causing this on the 69xx? It's kind of a relief that I was not the only one with the problem (looked like artifacting a little) vgruk pharmacy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miguelaco Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Just for the record, Catalyst 11.4c hotfix doesn't solve any issue for me. Flickering and boxes are still here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustang Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 The 11.4c is a standalone driver, you don't need a "base" driver running ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinky Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Mustang, does 11.4c fix the HDR flickering?

Mustang Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Actually, i'm still on 11.4 WHQL so i don't know.....btw if you check the 11.4 thread you'll notice that the 11.4c has been recently updated by AMD, we're just waiting for them to make it available.

Sinky Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 I see, I don't think I will switch until it's confirmed that it fixes this problem. Last thing I want to do is chop and change drivers multiple times a day.

miguelaco Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 (edited) Thanks JaBoG32_Kirin. Updated the list with last changes: Just to specify, we are summarizing here the white box glitch. There is another issue, HDR related as well, showing flickering when looking at the sun. Also, as I'm noticing that most cases are with AMD/ATI cards, I think it would be nice to get some confirmation from the nVidia guys, specifying which of the two issues are experiencing (white box/sun flicker). Meanwhile, I'm putting a question mark on nVidia cases until confirmation. AMD/ATI: 11 users with 6950/6970 have the issue 2 users with 6850/6870 don't have the issue 3 users with 5770/5870 don't have the issue NVIDIA: 1 user with GTX295 have the issue? (awaiting confirmation from BTTW-DratsaB) UNKNOWN: The following users reported the issue but cannot find their gpu info: shea1980 siefex leonsilver Edited May 11, 2011 by miguelaco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skeemo Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 :( really ? that's silly ! I didnt played A10 since the bug arosed...thats bad news. It completly ruins the overall experience for me, as i am a guy who wants to use a feature (HDR) when its available. And so are most ppl here i think.

Mud Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I also still have it. It's still not clear though if this problem is ATI or ED's responsability. Playing without HDR doesn't bother me at all though. At some times even on the contrary.
