Why 3D Mark 01SE makes black screen with some tests? Its random, sometimes GT1 High details I get Video mode not supported error, sometimes GT3, etc. But the test is running, I only cannot see. Its really annoying, can this be fixed somehow? See the rig in sig.. Thanks for help.

Video mode not supported by monitor?
What kind of monitor do you have? Maybe it's trying to pump refresh rate high?

Was the problem there in the first place or did it appear after some software/driver update?

My monitor is LCD Samsung SyncMaster 192T. This problem appeared after formatting. But I noticed I get like 1,000 points worse result with same procesor and graphic card before formatting. On Venice at 2880MHz (320x9) I got before format around 30500, now I get 29500 (stock X850XT). I think I get fps drop on the test that monitor cant show. I dont know why is it random, if a specific test changes refresh rate.. Monitor supports up to 75Hz.

Are you using the same drivers? Have you updated them? It is strange, as there is no direct dependence if you see the image or not, but I guess it should be driver lvl or something...

If you can, just try running your system on a good 19" CRT (if you can find one among your friends) and see if the problem disappears, or you could set 60Hz refresh rate for all resolutions in some program like RivaTuner

I changed the drivers from Omega, to Catalyst 5.7. Everything same. Were using Omega before format too. Installed drivers for monitor, nothing also. Gonna try with other monitor, as soon as I can. Thanks for help!
