I have been using an earlier version of PD up unitl now, but as I have now upgraded my system to a far better beast I thought I'd give PD 9 x64 trial a go.
Unfortunately, it does't appear to work in x-fire mode, which is a real shame for obvious performance reasons and wondered if there may be a fix/workaround for this.
Details of my system are:
Win 7 x64 Ultimate
ATI Crosshair III Mobo
AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 965 Processor (4 CPUs), ~3.4GHz
Dual Radeon HD 5700 (1GB ea)
8GB RAM
Boot Drive 2 x 1TB in RAID 0
Data Drive 1 x 1TB
It's a clean install of Win 7 with all the latest drivers and not much else installed in the way of software that could interfere, save for the possibility of AVG Free.
The problem is that, with X-fire enabled, PowerDirector will not launch - Windows throws up an incompatibility issue. However, with x-fire disabled the program will launch fine and appear to run OK (haven't actually used it for anyhting yet).
Any ideas on what the issue is and whether it can be resolved. I love the program and would really like to take full advantage of my hardware. But will reconsider purchasing the full program if I can only use the power of one graphics card.
Also, on another seperate note, with the earlier version of PD on an XP machine, the program would install the working directory 'My Works' on a seperate Data hard drive automatically, for obvious performance benefits. However, the installation of PD9 appears to have ignored my seperate data drive. Is there a reaason for this and can it/should it be changed?
Thanks,
Westy.
