Is BFBC2 loading times really that bad? I'm still using the 10.3 driver without the load fix and I don't find the load time to be long enough to make me want to upgrade.
I don't have to the prblem is or was real, it's old news.
Here is a link to AMD forums and the BSOD problem.

Since I'm always skeptical, why am I of the understanding that this thread doesn't apply to you. Which leads me to question why are you bothering reading threads in detail such that you linked to and this thread, and why you're posting such an obvious thread crap type of post, anticipating that someone's going to call you out on it & you're ready with a response? It looks far more like trolling, else a marketing strategy to me. So which is it? And, being very aware that there are apparently tons of shills, apparently for both companies, I'm skeptical that so many people signed up on that forum just to make one post which was essentially "me too." People with problems look for solutions, not join forums just to post "me too." This, also being a tech forum, seems to be mostly void of that phenomenon. Another interesting thing that I noticed is that Apple fans don't flock to the windows software forum, reporting problems. And, the windows people don't run to the Apple forum, reporting Apple problems. In both cases, we consider it to be trolling. Just what motivates you to do this? Trolling? Or Marketing? Consider yourself warned publicly that if this continues, I'm going to consider you a shill, else a troll - both bannable offenses.

and he doesn't even own a Xfire setup...
It was a link from another thread on this forum.
ANd ok'd by another moderator.
How would this thread not apply to me? I just upgraded to the 10.6 drivers.
Well before I go and upgrade my drivers , I do read what problems might arise ,don't you?
Motivates me? Well ,if you had a crossfire BSOD like many ,mabe you would thank me, others have.
If I'm a marketing troll as you publicly said (with no proof), why on earth would I have recommended 100's ATI cards in the past?
If you read my past posts you would have seen that.
So for now on if Anandtech members (with ATI cards) see/find something wrong with ATI drivers,we should just keep our mouths shut because we will be called marketing trolls by the mods for no good reason.
And in this forum, you can not have a opinion.
REAL NICE!
Edit: did you even read the old thread? Do I sound like a market troll?

You are really starting to sound familiar, I cant quite put my finger on it though.
Do you post any where else?:hmm:

I don't own a sli gtx 480 setup neither but I will tell you that dual monitor power consumption was not fixed in the latest drivers yet?
SO whats your point?
My point is that you DONT own a Crossfire setup and since this issue only affects those with multiple cards i don't see why that makes you think that you somehow will have problems.
I never saw you dedicating any time thread crapping Nvidia's topics but somehow you LOVE to post on ATI ones and 99% of the time it's negative stuff.
Better safe then sorry.
To be honest , I can't bash a Nvidia driver I don't own a Nvidia card?
The only thing that could be said about Nvidia that I know is, that there cards run hotter and consume more power.
OH yea ... and there dual monitor power consumption sucks ,unless they fixed that?
I don't make the news, I break the news.
On that logic, you can't bash a Crossfire setup either, you dont own one.
I never bashes a crossfired setup. I said be carefull of the New drivers while using crossfire.
How do you confuse bashing a crossfire setup with informing members of BSOD with 10.6 drivers and crossfire?

Do not install these drivers if you run any kind of crossfire!
They will give you a blue screen of death.
ANd I stand by the statement....and gave a link to back it up.
Unless there has been a fix?
No, you said "Do not install these drivers if you run any kind of crossfire!" One statement sounds moderate and reasonable, the other is patently false.
The reasonable statement would have been "there are some users that have reported issued with Crossfire on 10.6 drivers," but you didn't say that at all, did you? What you were doing is going well beyond "informing members."[/QUOTE]
No, you are wrong again, the members were informed and informed correctly.

Right on...:thumbsup:
Not "ok". I installed them and haven't gotten a BSOD yet.
Quit trying to bait people.
I have an account at Alienbabbletech but ,I don't post there often. Been here for 10 years,since my pent2 system. I lost the password to my ultramags account in 2003.

Check some of there post.................
Funny how I knew the members that would come to the rescue of bad drivers.
You watching Mr. Pizza?
I don't troll , I give the facts as I see them. Nvidia or ATI, doesn't matter, and been doing it for 7 years.
