Ableton & Gigabyte 6870

[Mr. Meoff]

So after some trial and error the last couple of weeks, it appears Ableton 8.2.2 will not run/open with "GraphicsEnabler=No" with a Gigabyte AMD Radeon 6870 card, (like in SB Build #4).

I was loading all my music software on my new hack and Ableton wouldn't even open, error instantly, couldn't understand why....? For whatever reason I thought I would boot with "GraphicsEnabler=Yes" and see what happens... Viola! Ableton 8.2.2 works no problem! except now I only have one DVI port working. :

"GraphicsEnabler=No" = AMD Radeon HD NI40
"GraphicsEnabler=Yes" = AMD Radeon HD 6870

It is your graphics card, i had a 5670 with the same problem, ableton , DVD, Geekbench and many others won't open..... i had to add ati framebuffer [ uakari , in my case ] and now everything opens but..... i use 2 monitors and one monitor is down this way, sucks , i change the ati card for a Nvidia 240gt....
