[QUOTE="zilexa, post: 408457, member: 83769"] Windows XP SP3 + all updates, .Net 3.5 sp1 and .net 2.0 sp2. MP 1.0.1 Final. Catalyst 9.4. Hardware: mobo: MA78GPM-DS2H (this is the only Gigabyte 780G with 128mb GDDR3). Also have 512mb shared. MEM: 2x2GB DDR800 CL4 (had to set the timings manually in BIOS since it recognized it as CL5) CPU: AMD Athlon X2 5050e (2.6GHz, 65Watt, no HT3.0) Unfortunately I am forced to use the EASYTUNE software to make sure the CPUFan is running at it's minimum unless temp goes above 38 Celsius. Don't know why Gigabyte doesn't have this option in BIOS (Like Asus). Is anyone using Catalyst 9.4? I've had A LOT of problems, but they didn't had much to do with MP. For instance, the 780G HDMI port simply does not work with all LCD TVs. Some Sony, Sharp and Toshiba models (wich I have) you'll get 800x600 max. Anything above will result in black screen (no not blue). Also, you only get image after Windows drivers loaded. So forget BIOS, need an pc monitor for that. Tried it also with a 780G Asus mobo, exact same issue although i did see the BIOS! With MP I only had DXVA with 8.12 driver. But I did completely clean install of Windows after removing the Asus mobo again. Then installed 9.4 and MP 1.0.1. Everything seems to work fine. I can even Hibernate from MP 1.0.1 and resume without bsod (used to have this issue with MP1.0 and catalyst 8.12). So 780G + Catalyst 9.4 + MP1.0.1 is working flawlessly. Only the HDMI port isn't working for me. I'm using VGA cable (1360x768, I could simply choose this resolution from Windows and CCC). BTW All 720P tvs have 1366x768 resolution. So you should never choose 1280x720. [/QUOTE]
