I have this card, i have chieftec 550w core2duo 2.6 and everything else very good!
All games work great without problems only grid makes problems!
If i put everything on max it just pops catalist vpu saying that it needed to restart card procesor blablablab...! So it happens when card get over heated...
Why? I play on 800x600 and not eaven full details and i can play 15 min then it pops up again! My computer should be able to run this game easy! Why is this?!
Have 2gb ram too...
When it pops it get me out of the game on a sec then brings back but pop after 5 sec again and again...

Card overheating may be? Check the airflow in your case, also what drivers you using? The new 8.6 Catalyst are out, chek em out.

Well yes i think its overheating! But its only here! All games are working fine, even crisis!
I use 8.6 drivers! The problem is that everything, every game, its all working well! Only grid is a problem!
