Hello.
I got a new 1900GT.
I installed catalyst 7.5,
but I don't see the overclocking tab in the control center.
I don't have access to the temp at all.
when I point my mouse on the ATI logo at the tray bar, it shows me the resulotion and next to it, it show zero degrees in parentheses.

Am I missing somthing?

Thanks.

btw.
I tried ATItool. I can see the temp there, and I can change the frequencies.

so what is wrong with the control center?

and another thing,
my GPU core speed is 515MHZ. isn't is suppose to be at least 575MHZ?

Thanks again.

Got the same card, maybe try and reinstall the cat drivers. By the way dont expect a massive over clock, and it will vary depending the version you have. Its either rev1 or rev2, i think they have slighty different coolers. And i dont think ya GPU speed is correct its menna be 575hmz, think it might be the drivers my best advice is to retry the drivers!

I tried to Install them several times.
first, only the drivers then the panel.
then I tried to install the full pack.

doesn't help.

but stargest thing happend when I switched between this one my older card.

after I pluged the new hardware and restarted my win XP sp2,
the XP asked me for new drivers for:
SM BUS,
PCI to PCI,
Memory controller.

I have no idea why that happend....

I think that because I was lazzy and didn't uninstall my old drivers(nvidia)

But when I did tried to uninstall them (using ATI hardware)
the NVIDIA nTunes uninstall failed.
maybe I should run win xp fix proccess or somthing.....
