Hello, AMD OverDrive is disabling Aero on my system, and certain benchmarks don't seem to engage the GPU, which is an AMD 6850. The CPU is receiving sufficient power, and stability tests show no issues. To be clear, this is being done on a machine where warranties are nullified, and I'm just overclocking for the sake of it.

Do you have the most recent BIOS and MMO drivers? What about the newest GPU drivers?

Do you have the most recent BIOS and motherboard drivers? The newest GPU drivers too? I have everything up to date.

It looked effective, so glad it worked! I'm checking some tests to compare its performance with modern systems.
This machine earned 1,439 points in Fire Strike, while my primary PC scored around 11k.
Appreciate the assistance!
