[needhelp111]

Once i install the 4890 Graphic card driver Windows never completes loading after displaying the logo.(win 7 64 bit)

Both power connectors plugged in, default VGA driver works, any other driver doesn't. Tried latest one as well as ATI 9.6 after doing some research online but no luck .

have you tried the 64bit version of these drivers....
I also have a sapphire 4890 and it works fine with cat9.10(64 bit) with win7 ultimate 64

Have tried the latest 64 bit drivers as well as the older ones. Win7 doesnt start once this is done.

Since i have DD3 RAM, Do i need to change the voltage? i read on another forum that the maybe a voltage problem.

changing the voltage might not solve the problem as I feel there is no problem with your ram...go to the bios n change the preference from integrated graphics(igp) to pci-e ...make sure that you have conected the monitor to the graphics card and not the motherboard...see if it works!!!!

My mobo doesn't have integrated grapics. Double checked and the display is connected directly to the graphic card.

when i install the driver the system doesn't start up after displaying the windows logo. Is it possible that the graphic card is faulty?

well one thing I can tell you is that the vapourX cards are factory overclocked...but that doesn't means it will show up problem during the booting....may be your ram is creating problems....check it using the windows memory diagonostic
