FX 5900 Catastrophic failure????

Postby J41 » Thu Nov 06, 2003 1:16 am

Hi all
     Not being that great with computers Im after some advice. The problem has only just started it was fine a week or two ago but when I right click to go to the control panel and to display settings then advanced and click on the fx5900 tab to adjust the sliders a warning "Bings" up on the screen with "Catastrophic failure" and it wont let me adjust the sliders as I cant get that far then I just click "ok" and thats it.
I hope that makes sense any help and advise would be great.
                          Thanks

catastrphic failure.. sounds like an ms error alright.. no sense of what has actualy happened to it.

anyways back to the problem if i were in your situation i would reinstall drivers and see if that worked...then i would cry because i wouldnt be able to get my fx5900 working....but thats just me... sorry i cant help you much further but im sure one of the techies at this site can answer it for ya ;)
