Doom 3 Pixel Processing Problem

[winjered]

I am currently using a radeon 9800 pro 256mb card and it seems that anything that requires pixel processing is not working correctly. I get small, random, white and red dots on caharacters and creatures and guns and stuff like that. the dots are sparatic and randomly appearing and disappearing.
I am using the latest 4.7 drivers.

please let me know if anyone else is having this problem or if you know of a way to resolve it.

ciao,
john

Are you overclocking the card?

and/or did you flash it to a fake 9800XT ?

Carmack says their testing encountered image problems on overclocked cards that run other games perfectly.

Weren't teh 4.7 catalyst drivers recalled due to an issue with pixel processing in 3DMark? Have the been rereleased since then (abotu a week ago). May want to go back to 4.6 and see if that straightens it out. Or, maybe I'm way out in left field and you should disregard this post, but I'm pretty sure I read that on hardocp.

And that is very very true. It knocked my OC down 25mhz.

There are tons of people at the Rage3D forums having the same problem. Fortunately I am not one of them with my 9700 Pro and the 3.10 drivers.
