Powerstrip locks up my comp

Muchacho1313 · Feb 6, 2004, 11:44 PM

Hi,

I am trying to use the powerstrip software to overclock my 9700pro. I am tyring 5-10hz integrals and when I start Wolfenstien Enemy Territory it locks up as soon as I begin to play. Is there some sort of safety feature on my card that would cause this? When I run powerstrip w/o overclocking and I make sure all the settings are default it still locks up. Any help is much appreciated.

Thank You,

Muchacho

funny quite a few people have mentioned this in the past, and im not sure what the problem is. you are running the newest version, right? you could always revert to rage3d tweak for overclocking.

Yeah what version are you using and do you have any boxes checked in the performance profiles like disable support for driver options?
