I'm done with ATI for now, 2 is enough.
As stargate125645 would state , it's all nVidia's fault. I bought two sapphire Rads month ago with my new rig so I installed anew and man I had 12 or 13 days of red driver hell and 2 Format's of Vista x64 , never had those problems but that Crossfire hated me so much. And at the last day one of the R4870 died [ Accelero S1 rev 2 + VRM"s cooled extremly well ] , that was the last thing , limit reached, packed them returned took my mony bought GTX280 , no problems since them, maybe I was borned without the ATI.dll that the Silicium god gave us ...
