    This driver is ok. The only problem is that Crysis is freezing after a few seconds (usually at the EA logo), but only in Windows XP. And it doesn't matter if i enable or disable CrossFireX.
    In Windows Vista 64 i had no problems.
    Now i'm using 8.5 in Win XP and 8.6 Beta in Vista :)

    well for me they caused a bluescreen on every boot making them a bit hard to uninstall, and they also caused a red screen of death (yes a red screen) while trying out crysis... btw I am on vista home premium 64 bit, with sp1 installed. (and not on a beta version)

    For me, these drivers killed my Shader support detections and most games gave errors or didn't draw everything it should.

    Spend nice few hours installing and removing drivers with no luck so end up installing Windows again >_>

    1900XT and Vista 64-bit

    Faster loading CCC screens, infact the CCC Loads up within 1 sec lol, thats how quick it is. Gain some fraps in certain games, but these are not 8.6, because it says i am using 8.5 drivers.

    Can't say I'm especially impressed with these...Could be I'm not running akimbo boards, but with a single 3870, these drivers don't offer much over 8.5, regardless of OS...

    Hi

    I have a CFx of 3870X2 under Vista32 sp1, and these drivers are the only ones that doesn't bugg on waters at the Jane Nash bench.
    very good to me but there isn't much choice does it ?




    Something very important:

    I organise a little Crysis LAN soon at my home, but as the game crashes, I wonder if with all crysis patches installed AND this latest ATI CCC driver do I still need to put that Hotfix ? and which one ?

    I'm glad with them too but I want to know if there is something I miss for Crysis. Is there one particular thing to do? like installing a hotfix for ATI and Crysis ?

    (crysis patched 1.21 btw)

    You´ll have to wait for the final 8.6 driver then.

    Dam i have freezes and crashes in HL2:EP2, AOE3 and now GRID.
    In the first cases the games freezes and i have a notice that the display driver crashed but was able to recover, and the games goes on.
    On GRID its just crashes to the desktop.
