Strange. I'll have to give it a try when I'm back at my ATI driven PC. Currently I'm sitting elsewhere at an Nvidia driven one, so no chance to check atm.

Just some FYI for those of you with slightly older ATI cards.

I am running an HD 3870, and I started having serious graphics card crashes (to black - no video output requiring hard re-boot) after upgrading to 10.something, and none of the newer driver or catalyst versions made any difference, nor did any config.ini setting.  (Using my UP2.1 installation - no trouble on my old AAA install, or the stock 4.09m)

What finally solved the problem was using Catalyst to overclock my 3870.  I hadn't considered this before.  I let it run it's test, but I aborted after several crashes, and watching the GPU temp climb to above 100 deg C (!!!!).  I decided to just manually GPU and RAM speeds up to about halfway on the sliders provided on the Catalyst control interface.  This keeps the GPU temp around 70 degrees max (factory settings resulted in temps in the 60s anyway), and I have not had a single GPU crash, or any other problem, with well over 20 hours of play now. (I was getting crashed out of IL2 within a few minutes before).  And the performance seems much better than before, as well!

Not sure why this is happening.  Maybe something in UP2.1 was stressing the GPU, but the extra bit of performance allows it to slide past?  The crashes always happened while I was panning around, with either the TrackIR or the mouse.

gerson, i think when you run the "setup program", there is a list with settings....

***********************
-safe settings
-minimum settings
-nvidia A
-nVidia B
.
.
.
.
-ati A
-ati B
-maximum settings
***************

the first line must be setting="0", the next one would be "1", then "2".

These settings concern old graphics cards from, like, 2004/2006.
The settings given in the conf ini are therfor for really, like, "OLD" cards. For cards  long before your one, therefor your card is not in the list, and there is no right setting for your card.
The 5670 would be from 2010, i guess (2009?). you can choose any setting, but "maximum settings" would do the trick.

(posted from memory from work, might be wrong, someone correct me IF so.)

What is the appropriate antialiasing setting?

I use the AMD Radeon R9 200 Series
