    I'm not familiar with this at all. I do understand the concept of course but just haven't had any experience with this particular one.

    I found this with a bing search: https://www.guru3d.com/files-details...-download.html

    I'll download it and try it when next I have a while away from the PC. I should be away in the morrow for about 7 hours, I presume that would be long enough.

    A couple whiles back when I upgraded to dual cards in SLI I was having all sorts of problems and geek squad ended up figuring out my power supply was too small. Might be something for you to look at.

    Interesting, and something I had not thought of. I did checkthat my PC met the system req. for the card, including minimum PSU wattage, before I purchased it. My power supply is a OEM DELL rated at 750W - though I have no way of knowing if that is what it actually does. I have another compatible power supply which is 850 W so I will swap them and see if it makes a difference.

Of other note, I can't for the life of me work out AMD driver versions from the paste, because the current "driver version" on their site is like 18.30.17.01, yet none of their actual driver files carry that number. So, can you confirm what driver version (or even Catalyst/Adrenaline/whatever they called it before, version) you are using?
    Thank you for all your help and no worries over the recommendation being a cop out. I appriciate your (and everyone's) help here!

    AMD Driver versions make no sense to me since they have a different version for various parts of it. This is what is reported as the driver version currently.

    Driver Packaging Version
    18.30.11.01-180827a-332601E-RadeonSoftwareAdrenalin

    The previous driver for the FirePro V5900 card: 15.201.2401.1010
