Re: = ClockTweak = win32 command line clock/voltage tweaking tool
Today after reinstallation of system on my miner the AMD GPU Clock Tool which previously was the only tool that could underclock and overclock over the BIOS limits my reference HIS 5850 refused to work.
The drivers installed were newest beta Catalyst 11.7. Then I've tried to use ClockTweak to do some overclocking in the BIOS limits range, but accidentally I've passed options for my second card - 900/300 and it worked! Not only the BIOS limits were bypassed, but previously this card could only go stable to 850. Very nice job AMD with that drivers

I've had EnableUlps set to 0 for quite some time (Crossfire related problem with 1 card randomly going to 0% load). I can confirm that this will NOT allow you to start mining on a GPU that doesn't have a monitor attached.
My solution. My monitor has 3 inputs. I plug my 2 cards in to it. 1 DVI 1 DVI-VGA. Start mining and overclock 1st card, hit switch input, start mining and overclock 2nd card.
Did you set it up on all cards eg. under the 0000 and 0001 or 0003 keys? It works fine for me, my config:My solution. My monitor has 3 inputs. I plug my 2 cards in to it. 1 DVI 1 DVI-VGA. Start mining and overclock 1st card, hit switch input, start mining and overclock 2nd card.
Windows 7 x86
HIS Radeon 5850
ASUS Radeon 5850 DirectCu TOP
Latest catalyst drivers.
CrossFireX enabled
Cards are linked with CrossfireX bridge. If it still doesn't work, there's another solution, run furmark or another GPU heavy application for a minute, then the second GPU will appear ready for mining - I was doing this before learning the ULPS trick.

thanks for the info! let me know your bitcoin address and I will send you the refund for testing.
what are the limits in CCC for the HIS?
I don't want the refund, your app saves me from messing with afterburner, which I really hated. Core clock limit in CCC for HIS is 775MHz, so is ClockTweak bound to the AMD Overdrive limits?what are the limits in CCC for the HIS?
Re: = ClockTweak = win32 command line clock/voltage tweaking tool
Very nice tool, I finally don't have to start MSI Afterburner 4 times to downclock the memory on my ASUS 5850 DirectCU TOP because the AMD GPU clock tool fails to do it.
Reverse situation occurs on my HIS 5850 Reference Design, ClockTweak and MSI Afterburner both fail to set the clocks, AMD GPU clock saves the day.
Here are the logs:

I'm mining with on Windows my two 5850's and didn't ever thought about need to use the dummy plugs, it isn't needed!
You just need to disable ULPS - this mechanism disables the second card without monitor/workload. Here's how to do it:

Go to registry and disable Ulps:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Cl ass\{4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}]
and change "EnableUlps" to 0 under the 0000 and 0001 or 0003 keys.

Bitcoin as a new home for HYIPs/Surfs, very nice idea! I will definitely upgrade, the plan is very reasonable and I hope that it will be a fair game unlike the current massive amount of SCAMs using conventional money.
