catalyst 8.1 is having same problems switching to 3d mode just like 7.12. mabye the modded bios is having something to do with this? FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO GOT THESE TO WORK, WHAT BIOS DID YOU USE TO MOD AND HOW EXACTLY DID YOU MOD IT (direct hex edit or the quantumforce bios editor)????

this is really frustrating being stuck on 7.11
