Crew Leeghoofd Posted July 3, 2015 Crew Posted July 3, 2015 lo all, this software has been doing my head in for the last couple of days. Working fine on XP , but trying to get this software to run on windows 64bit is a serious pain in the buttocks. "Can't detect an ASUS videocard or failed to detect GPU error messages" Wanting to run some old crossfire cards in my typical scatter benching mode . I tried numerous other software (AB(x), GPUtool, Trixx,...) windows 7 32/64bit, Win7 SP0/1 and several old legacy drivers. It seems Smartdoctor is the only one to give software acess to the GPU voltage. Concerned cards are the ASUS 5850 TOP and the 4890 TOP series... Googling the web gave some pointers to install it as administrator and Vista compatibility mode. Though to no avail... Before pulling out the soldering tool I just want to know if anyone else has got this software to properly run on windows 7 64bit. Quote
DrWeez Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 my advice is to pull out the soldering iron before you waste any more time with trying to find software Quote
Crew Leeghoofd Posted July 3, 2015 Author Crew Posted July 3, 2015 I really need to know how some got it working Too hot too solder here Quote
ObscureParadox Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 Isn't the 4890 TOP using the volterra chips found on the reference 4890? If it is then you can just use GPU Tool for that. You should have all the voltage control in the world for that card then. Can't help you with the 5850 though Quote
Crew Leeghoofd Posted July 3, 2015 Author Crew Posted July 3, 2015 Doesn't seem so as I can't acess Voltage control via anything besides SmartDoc Quote
nachtfalke Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) you need VID mod anyway , because with any software you hint ovp limit on these cards. HD 4890 TOP was done in 2 variants: a) reference design with 2x volterra VT1165mf pwm and black pcb , 1x6pin + 1x8 pin power , MLCC cap back gpu side b) analog custom design , 100% asus design ...here need anyway hw voltmode HD 5850 TOP use uP6208 pwm , witch it had OVP trigger , only way to bench these card over 1.5vgpu need VID mod , if you can´t configure the mod ..contact me. regards Edited July 3, 2015 by nachtfalke Quote
Crew Leeghoofd Posted July 8, 2015 Author Crew Posted July 8, 2015 mmm seems I have the first edition of the 4890 TOP with MLCC cap, yet can't access the voltages via any software than smartdoc... Quote
