SoulSkorpion 10 Posted December 20, 2009 I've been trying out the demo lately, and every time has ended with this problem. For no apparent reason, the screen goes to stand-by mode. The length of time before this happens varies and doesn't seem to be related to anything I'm doing in game. My video card is a shiny new XFX ATI HD 4870 (I got it less than a week ago), with drivers off the XFX website. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jibemorel 10 Posted December 20, 2009 Did you check the temperature of your card ? You may check this thread too : http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=73235 Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoulSkorpion 10 Posted December 20, 2009 Yikes! The temperature is 67° outside the game, with entries ingame at 89° - 90°. What the hell? This is a brand new card, why's it getting so hot? :/ I'll look in that thread you suggested, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zipper5 74 Posted December 20, 2009 It's probably an issue with your fans. Simply put - make sure they're working properly, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoulSkorpion 10 Posted December 20, 2009 Manually setting the fan to 100% keeps the temperature to around 80-85 and the game runs ok. Why it wasn't deciding to boost the fan itself is beyond me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
