I run a 9800 Pro, and I found that installing the latest Omega drivers fixed almost all the issues I'd been having in BWL (as well as significantly boosting my overall framerate). You can get them at http://www.omegadrivers.net | |

I got 9600 Pro and didnt work too well on mine. Still had some problems with VPU error. Not as frequent but it was still there.

OMG I was just about to post something about this. Last night I kept getting VPU errors any time I was standing in the MT healer area and this was just at the buffing stage. I actually crashed out REALLY badly (black screen and hard reset of computer) as we were all portalling out for the night.. I've got a HIS 600x? It's under the ATI catalyst family I'm sure. I did update drivers a few weeks ago but gawd >.< I think i must have installed improperly..i'll try uninstalling and reinstaling tonight --

The whole issue is that ATI's latest catalyst drivers aren't playing nice with WOW. Not only does BWL cause problems but other issues as well. I jumped back to the 5.1 drivers and haven't had a problem, although I might check out the omega drivers just to see how it affects framerate. | |

Thanks for the tip, Elofax! I'll try to remember myself to try them. Up to this point, only the 5.1 drivers (I run the Omega version of those on my 9800 pro) have made the game playable for me. Otherwise a framerate eating monster slowly gobbles all mine away... especially when I'm travelling from area to area or zoning into instances. --
