Dear AMD Users,
First of all, let me apologise for opening another topic about the well-known "grey screen crash, coloured stripes" issues but I think the time has arrived to clear up this "mystery". All day long I have been reading through forum posts looking for a proper answer or fix but unfortunately I have not found anything satisfactory yet... There is one thing for sure, a whole lot of people have experienced one of the issues mentioned above. There are plenty of fixes floating around which may or may not help. I think the most important question is, and that is what we all would love to know, whether those problems are hardware defects or all we should do is to wait for a better driver... Here is my story:
First my specs.:
AMD PhenomII 965
2x2GB Kingston HyperX @ 1333MHz
msi 790FX-GD70 mobo
Sapphire HD 5870 1GB
Corsair 750HX
WD CB 640GB
NO OC.
The grey screen with stripes appears randomly when playing any game. After having experienced the "grey/brown screen" glitch for the first time I have started to test system stability step by step. First the CPU (prime95 Large FFTs, Small FFTs aka FPU stress, Blend test: 8+ hrs no errors) then the memory (Prime95 Blend test then Memtest 86+: 8+ hrs no errors) then came the VGA: Furmark: after a minute or so the screen started to flicker and a bit later the well-known grey screen with stripes appeared for a sec then disappeared and then appeared again for a little longer and eventually my PC froze. I even got "HT sync flood occurred error" but that only happened two times. Initially I thought this "grey/brown screen" thing was a Furmark glitch or something like that but the last time when I played Dirt2 this bloody screen appeared again. So now I wonder what the problem can be... Let me list what I have tried so far:
-Placing the VGA into another PCIe slot
-Different drivers
-Different mobo BIOSes
-Disabling audio devices which I do not use in Device Manager
No success.
Well, having put it in a nuts** that is my story. I am about to RMA my VGA tomorrow but first I would like to know whether this is really a HW problem.
Anyway, the main aim of this topic is to help all those who have these issues. Sharing ideas can always help, you know. I would also love to hear a Moderator or anyone official (I know this is a "User to User" forum but still... who knows) what they have to say about these very common issues (grey screen crash, stripy screen etc).
All the best,
PS.: Some of the forums I read. One may find them interesting... ![]()

UPDATE: "AMD customer service said it's a problem caused by MS Windows7 update, they're looking at it, and maybe get a fix in next cat." Some even say it's a fan problem and setting the fan to 40% may slove the problem.
Dah as I get on with reading every single post I came across even better explanations. "My diagnostic is that there is a driver problem (especially on Win 7 64bit) + the 2D clocks set by ati on their 5xxx series to prevent high energy consumption at idle are too low and are a major cause of crashes."

简单翻译:
有不少HD5000系列显卡用户遇到了灰/棕色竖条纹死机的情况。帖子作者对平台进行了稳定性测试、禁用未使用的设备、更换显卡插槽、更新显卡驱动、刷新主板BIOS、更改风扇转速到40%以上,均不见效,确定问题根源在显卡。
AMD客户服务给予的答复是:问题是由Windows7 Update造成的,详细原因还在调查之中,可能会在下一个催化剂驱动对这个问题进行修正。
帖子作者的观点是:驱动问题(特别是Windows7 x64)+2D频率被设置得过低,是导致这个问题的主要原因。

另外,在AMD官网没找到5870的新BIOS。在techpowerup.com上放出来两个版本:
BIOS version 113-C00101-101 - default voltage 1,162V
BIOS version 113-C00101-103 - default voltage 1,174V
(5870默认核心电压1.15)
不过目前还没太多人愿意当小白,到底增加核心电压是不是唯一的解决办法也无从而知。
PS.1:晚上我自己又遇到两次竖条纹屏死机..........
PS.2:此帖绝非战帖或者口水帖,希望各位留点口德
