Also tried adding it to startup and rebooted, still nothing. Dont know if i'm doing something wrong or it just doesnt work on all 4870? I was expecting it to work on a reference card like mine after the patch. Anyone has this problem with 4870?
Forget about using EVGA GVT with ATI cards. This tool doesnt have low-level I2C hardware abstraction layer and it is able access it by means of ForceWare's I2C access API. So it will not be able to work with VRMs connected to I2C bus on ATi hardware under any conditions.
