Argh... Its raining atikmdag errors in 8.10 for me on IGP

[nanohead]

OK boys and girls, don't know if this is happening to anyone else.... But

I have several systems, moved 3 of them to 8.10, and 2 of them are having zillions of atikmdag errors in the log file. On my big 4870 Crossfire rig, no issues, but on both the 790GX and 780G systems, I'm having terrible hangs and performance problems since upgrade (?), crashing and hanging, a general weirdness. It seems peculiar to the IGP systems and 8.10. My wifes machine is 780G but still on 8.9, and the big gamer is 8.10 but no IGP (790FX/SB750) and neither is having issues. Dunno...

The 790GX system is a fresh install, and its happening there too!

Anyone else seeing this?

Thanks for responding

? You talkin about Driver Sweeper? These errors are happening on fresh installs too.

Sorry I just got home from work and my brain isn't back to full function yet
I had that problem 8.9
I was running my 4870's on 780gx (M3A78-T) board
I was rushing the fresh install and didn't do two things
one was disable the IGP
second was use the drivers on the supplied disk for the board
when I reinstalled Cat 8.9 the problem went away

I missed the fresh install part the first time I read it
sorry about that
I've had that problem with installing one Cat on top of another that's why I said Drive Sweeper

Ahh, thanks.

These errors are happening on a Gigabyte 790GX using the IGP embedded Radeon 3300, and are also happening on a Gigabyte 780G with a Radeon 4850 in it too. Makes no sense to me.... I never had problems with either using 8.9. Maybe I'll revert back. I'm stumped

Hey.. thanks !!!

Yeah, those guys over there seem to be getting game related errors. Mine just humps itself sitting idling.. no explanation

I was experimenting this morning, and I did something totally random, and the errors seemed to stop reproducing in the event log. Not sure if it actually fixed it, nor why....

Believe it or not, I installed the Realtek HD audio drivers that also include the ATI HDMI audio, and there hasn't been an error since. I dunno, but I might try it on my other machine that is having issues. Its too weird when random things fix random problems.

I think I saw bigfoot this morning speaking with elvis, while stepping off a spaceship from their latest alien abduction. Makes about as much sense as my random errors

Hope things work with the second machine
