So I have this aging PC that I installed windows 7 on, and now unfortunately the screen messes up (horizontal lines/black) temporarily whenever I login, come back from standby, start a movie, etc.
Searching around, it's a 7900GT problem, and can be fixed with a simple +5mhz clock on the gpu/memory.
However, using a program to do this (I'm using rivatuner right now) requires it to load at startup, which causes UAC issues, and before it loads, it's still messed up, etc.
I'd like to directly change the clock by altering the BIOS, but nibitor can't pull the BIOS in a non-XP environment, and evga says that they don't have it because it's long discontinued...
So just hoping someone might be able to help?
