    these drivers are rubbish whilst playing FC2 all I get every few minutes is this

    Display driver amdkmdap stopped responding and has successfully recovered and this
    UVD Information
    it's like it wants to keep downclocking to 400/900 to play a video WTF???

    can AMD/ATI not fix sh!t so it stays fixed geezus christ drivers at this level should be stable as Fock for HD5770's even in CF so but I'm going back to 11.4 atleast they freakin worked right

    Look in the mirror. It's your who is probably the tool and the problem.

    Tried it, official exe without any unofficial patches and stuff and it works 100% here. Version 1.23 and 1.26 tested.

    So I'd bet your problem doesn't lie in drivers' error, but yours or hardware.

    EDIT: You also don't need CCC running btw, you can kill it without problems before playing a game. You could try that also.

    So, any fix for colors settings not being applied in games? For some dumb reason if I change the desktop color settings to what I want to use in games, it works. I never had so much frustration with the HD3850.

    Just remember if there's any issues or things that aren't working right for these people that say look in the mirror, its completely their fault. Must be a nice dream world where there are no such things as crossfire issues, Cap profiles aren't needed (they are afterall, a type of fix), no BSODs with 11.6, no mouse lag ever, every driver offers a definite improvement and no issues ever, and the same goes if they were with Nvidia!

    What type of mirror are these guys looking in to? An Alice in Wonderland mirror? I guess if there's ever an issue its that person that is starting back at you fault, not your own, right?

    These are the best drivers i use for my 5750. No problems at all, and higher frame rates in games.

    Hi General, did u Play Witcher 2, i can't play Smoothly getting Micro Stuttering any idea , The Recommended Spec is ATI 4850 , so it's not a GPU issue or May be CPU bottleneck, hmm...

    Hey guys! Good news, I found Catalyst 8.862 online dated 08 June! :D Its a RC that has all the chipset components etc too.

    Bad news, it still BSODs on atikmdag.sys for me lol.

    The file version is the same but the 8.862 atikmdag.sys is a bit larger and different code. Still, BSOD is a BSOD.

    Hopefully this BSOD issue is fixed soon. I'm sure ASDER will get around to posting these shortly :)

    Not sure if this is allowed, so moderators remove the link if necessary! (this is the link that I was directed to):

    Hi
    at first - sorry for my english :p
    Im still getting 99% bug on gpu2. But nvm that...
    I have problem with many games , benchmarks (most of 3d apps) using crossfire. Its a very fast screen flickering, not textures or shadows, parts of screen flicker. I think its something like 40-50 times a sec. Its barely noticeable, and after 1 hour of gaming eyes hurt like hell. I thought its a driver issue, but new drivers didnt fix this. Anyone have this problem ? Maybe there is known solution for it ?
    Using 1 card effect dont occure
    example video showing this effect, but much slower (in normal speed fraps didnt catch it)

    Not optimizing drivers for old serie like 5000....

    I do not believe all these , drivers may be already optimized, i bought the Sapphire 5850 11 months ago at nearly 300€, & one month ago i saw a brand new Sapphire 5850 Xtreme at 105€ so i had no reason to doubt about gettin' one and 'CrossFiring' the original plus the Xtreme with good results, 3Dmark11 asks approved drivers ( by them ) and results are too low so i tested the CF with Unigine Heaven and it just doubles the score...
    But if it is true that AMD 'forgets' about HD 5000 series so soon , i'll just sell the 5850's and get a NV 590 when the price is affordable...........
