    Disabling ATI VPU recover in vista x64?

    My cards can run 860 core but over 810 and I get VPU recover. The option is not there in CCC to disable it. What's the deal? Can I get rid of it or what?

    there should be a VPU Recover tab just above the Overdrive tab. you can disable it there.

    vpu recover only pops up when your cards overheat and temporarily shut down and it brings it back up, it wont solve your problem u need better cooling or a more aggressive fan setting in your bios

    and i cant disable it in x64 only in x86

    It happens a 92c and 60c, it's not temps. I was under the impression that VPU recover occurred when the drivers detected artifacting. What genius at ATI decided to remove the disable option for x64? I really wish I kept my 8800GTS 640 at times...

    i don't think any 3870 owners are game stable at 860 core without volt mods anyway. i haven't seen VPU Recover rear its ugly head since i got these cards, but i did try CoD4 at 850 core and the game crashed after a few minutes. i'd recommend a pencil mod or lowering your OC for gaming.

    1377 wow... vmem modded I assume? And the card undervolts the ram under the increased load of an OC'd core? That might be an issue...

    You and I are really close in clock speeds. Both my 3870's are completely "virgin" meaning NO MODS what so ever, and am 1000% stable @ 860c/2645MHz ram. Both cards are diamonds and bought the day they were released.
    Nothing anymore
