Hello,

I am trying to raise the Engine clock on some 5870's and everytime I try to go over 900Mhz it says

"Failed to modify engine clock speed".

I have seen tons of posts where people can go over 900Mhz.  What am I doing wrong?

Ubuntu 11.04 on a 4GB USB Drive, 890FXA-GD70, 4X5870's, cgminer.

Thanks

Bo

I had problems getting CGminer to overclock my 5830s, in the end I gave up and did the overclocking myself... Running nicely at 950MHz [Running under windows though]

What driver version?  I believe at some point the driver allows overclocking above the limit.  I know 11.6 does.
