Title: Ray Adams Tool Tray
Post by: Getback on November 13, 2009, 12:40:03 PM
I've been using this and cannot get it to overclock. Anything I try reboots the system, even auto overclock. Right now it's running less than default.

Any thoughts?

Which version are you using?  The 1.3 version or the 1.69 beta?  I'm using the beta and don't have any problems with over clocking my ATI card.  Make sure that you do not have the Catalyst Control Center installed if you're trying to over clock with ATI Tool Tray.

This might indicate that your card has a problem, it barely runs at stock speed and oc just kills it. Heat, bad ram.. whatever.

Another thing with over clocking using ATI Tray Tools you need to disable "ATI HotKey Poller" to use the low-level overclocking.  It is also recommended you use the beta version of ATI Tray Tools.  The official release version 1.3 is way out of date and really doesn't support ATI cards from version 2xxx on up and you should use the 1.6.9 beta if you have a card from from the newer series.

Here is a nice guide for tweaking ATI cards and has a section for using ATI Tray Tools that is very good and explains how to get ATI Tray Tools working and what the various settings are.
