Thanks!

D/L'ing, but waiting for someone else to install and report back before installing them myself... the 3.10's have been great for me...

 

[Ionizer86]

Hmm, no digital vibrance equivalent yet.

 

[Atlantean]

been wondering when they were coming... gonna install them, but will be trying the omegas when they come out.

 

[bacillus]

thanks for the heads up!

Upgrading from 3.10 to 4.1, got a BSOD upon re-boot.
So: used Driver Cleaner. Everything's running OK now.

 

[sd]

I always use Driver Cleaner ,anyway no problems with the 4.1s and image quality is excellent.

 

[farscape]

Image quality is good, but benchies are down from the 3.10s. Been dropping over the last few updates. 12943 on 2001SE. Was 13400 on 3.8s.

7.97 Catalyst's!

Look at the title bar on the release notes page! Wow! It's 2007 and we didn't even know!

try using Need For Speed Underground with Motion Blur enabled before you say no problems

The faster you go the darker the screen gets and when you use NOS it goes almost completely black

 

[xSkyDrAx]

I see no problems with NFSU w/motion blur enabled. It ran fine for me. Maybe its your card?

 

[hddy]

i also get problems w/ nfsu and motion blur. everything goes black, and if u hit nos the whole screen will go black. i have a 9700 pro w/ 3.1

 

[SSibalNom]

this wont run w/ halo for me

 

[Lyfer]

I'll stick with cat 3.6's.

 

[Auric]

After trying all the releases since 3.7 I always went back to 'em. But so far, these look like the current ones to beat.

Anyone notice the chat text in BF1942 somehow being slightly improved? I am using the same settings (AF, AA with Alternate Pixel Center).

I get BSOD on anything above the 3.7s with my Radeon 9600 Pro. It stinks...

vailr, the drivers are not meant to be "upgraded" but rather uninstalled and installed.

Porbleemo, did you run AtiCimUn (Uninstaller) first?

 

[igowerf]

bump with updates

 

[sd]

3dmark03 scores were a little higher, and call of duty has actually ran smoother.

 

[BFG10K]

The drivers are fine but the standalone control panel appears to be corrupted and won't install. Does anyone else have this problem?

 

[kursplat]

working fine here with NFS HP 2 and MoH (all of them) . 2x AA and 4x anistropic . everything else high quality and true form enabled. fast writes enabled still hard lock any game .
2800 barton on soyo kt600 dragon.
since i just got my SECOND RMA return from ATI i very happy. will try underground a little later.

COD ran well with them installed, but it wasn't bad with the 3.7's either. I dumped them and wen tback to the 3.7's because the screen would hang and go black for about 5 seconds when exiting COD.

 

[Quixfire]

Downloaded but haven't had the time to install them, darn VB.net homework.
