Yea for me it was the same. I got artifacts the second I started the checker and the artifacts came up as solid yellow blocks surrounding the entire fuzzy brown thing. That was what I meant about yellow border, it is what would be known as HUGE clusters of artifacts. The bottom however said no errors found and my system didn't beep either. If I change the mode to old (more compatible?) mode the clusters of yellow artifacts boxes totally disappears and again it says no errors found as well as no beep is audible. I can't wait till X1800 artifact testing gets fully completed as I am dying to see if ATItool will pick up what I see in FEAR with my card with those quick flashing black squares here and there. If ATItool shows my card is fine then I will stop freaking out about this. Setting volts and clocks at startup would be dope too. Good job W1zzard, thanks.

BTW, you mentioned there is no difference on the mode selected in general? Meaning if you truly do have a bad card/overclock you should and will see errors on both methods? Why have both then? Anyone know the difference between the modes on how they test?
