If you have flash video acceleration enabled and running at the same time as running a game then it will be locked at 400Mhz as that is what the UVD uses and it cannot go any higher.


What's doing it is the BLOODY UBISOFT SPLASH SCREEN that appears when the game starts up - the vid plays and locks the card to UVD clock settings. I got around it by renaming the LOGO.wmv so it doesn't play:

No idea. Disabling HA didn't work for me either. I can only assume (since I'm not mega-technical) that whatever plays the ubi splash must be triggering the UVD and locking the clock speed. No video - no lock, CloD runs at 850 right off the bat and suddenly I can bring the settings up to make the game look decent and still get 30ish fps

Fair enough, no offence meant. FYI I only run a single card for CloD, I'm well aware xfire isn't supported. Just glad it's fixed
