    it is exactly that, if you purely look at the definition. "overcurrent protection". your app brings the card into an overcurrent state. the driver does not allow that. -> it implements overcurrent protection.

    final fantasy devs will notice that issue, talk to ati devrel, they will tell them to change their rendering method/shaders, problem fixed. if the dev isnt willing to do that ati will just add app/scene detection to fix it.

    good luck playing cat and mouse with ati.

    what do you expect ati to do? recall all cards? send all 4870 owners a 4890 ? leave the bug unfixed ? there are not really many options. they could give you a chunk of money to recode your application
