MSI Afterburner (v4.2.0) doesn't start at Windows (8.1 Pro x64) start up... I searched the web, but I'm not smarter... (I need to start Afterburner with admin rights manually for correct function. Until now I use this tool just for a 'better' fan curve.) I check 'start with Windows' in the tool settings, but... - or - I check 'apply o/c at system startup' in the tool, but... - or - I copy a tool shortcut in the (*/normal_account/ (no admin rights)) 'Autostart' folder, but... - or - I copy a tool shortcut in the (C:/Autostart (admin rights?)) folder, but... - or - Over the task scheduler 'start at log on', but... - it don't start automatically. Why? What I need to do that Afterburner start automatically? Crimson 15.12 have a downclock bug (at least with my FuryX's). Start of Windows and after a few minutes or a few days, one or two VGA cards downclock from 1050 to 300 MHz, up to 1050 again and down to 300 MHz again, and over again... A reboot is needed to fix it... - to the time it happens again. Crimson 16.3.2 have a 'power efficiency' point in the software (recommendation of the AMD support), I tested it 3 1/2 days and in this time the downclock doesn't happen. I don't know if it fix the downclock bug, because sometimes it happen after 7 or more days... But this software I couldn't use, because it make invalid AstroPulse results. I need to use 15.12, but... I checked in Afterburner: disable ULPS enabled force constant voltage - and the downclock bug happens nevertheless. Is there a way to make a work around (disable of power efficiency) that the FuryX's don't downclock? Maybe in the registry (because I read here in the forum, that it's possible to disable ULPS there, but don't know how) or somewhere other? Thanks. |

Can you use EVGA Precision instead? It starts OK in my systems, but does it work for ATI Radeon cards, or just NVIDIA? |

Can't you use Windows Task Scheduler to add the program and set it to start at Windows log on, or seconds thereafter? http://windows.microsoft.com/en-au/windows/schedule-task#1TC=windows-7 (Here's how to open task scheduler in Windows 8/8.1) |
