Okay I just installed the new Catalyst 6.3's and decided to see what 3DMark scores are with the new driver's to see if ther ewould be any improment. I started with 3DMark2001SE and worked my way up.. but was stopped short when 3DMark03 would run the first graphics test Wings of Fury and strat the next one. and 3/4 of the way through would hang. Causimng me to restart.
So I do so thinking maybe just a one time glitch. I was wrong, as I startesd agian and same thing. So I restat agian.. and try just the GT2 and same hang/restart. Then next try I try the GT3 it also hangs and so on with the other Graphics tests. I then just to see ran 3DMark05 and 06 and they ran through fine. At this point I was confused, since with the cat 6.2's it ran without a hitch.
Although I overclocked my PowerColor X1900XT slightly (650/750) and ran the tests, and then reset defaults to see if that was the problem and it wasn't.
My conclusion is that there is a bug with the 6.3's and 3DMark03, although can anyone else duplicate this?
Mys specs are:
AMD 64 3700+@ 2.6GHz | PowerColor X1900XT (650/750) | SB Audigy 2ZS | 1GB KingstonVR PC3200...
