Should i just download option2 link 1 as I redownloaded the control center yesterday

 

[Marcel Hulsbergen]

You need to download both files, first clean all then install drivers and then control panel.

 

[Ben Tusting]

Ok will do this in a sec

Thnx for your help Marcel and David

 

[Marcel Hulsbergen]

Youre welcome, be sure you clean it well, and be sure you use the defautl windows drivers when you install the new ones, you can search the registry for old ati links and delete them.

 

[Ben Tusting]

Edit

 

[Ben Tusting]

I installed the new drivers but still hasn't worked

 

[Marcel Hulsbergen]

Very strange, can you open regedit and search for "reactivate" see if it has his own registry keys.

 

[Ben Tusting]

I just tried that now Marcel but nout comes up

 

[Marcel Hulsbergen]

Did you use the driversweeper to remove all old **** and did a reboot?

Did you also remove the old Control Panel with Programs and features?

 

[Ben Tusting]

I used the driversweeper and the programs and features

 

[Marcel Hulsbergen]

I did some further reasearch and found this:

Making changes to the Color aspect found in the Catalyst™ Control Center without applying the changes may result in the Reactivate ATI color controls button remaining active after the Catalyst™ Control Center is closed and then re-launched.

So try to make changes in colors and see if the button can be used.

 

[Ben Tusting]

Nope

 

[Marcel Hulsbergen]

If something others comes on my mind i will post it here but for now i really have no clue that this caused. To be continued...

In tonight's League race I got minidumped, luckily just after i crossed the finish line. Could this be down to new Graphics drivers?

 

[Marcel Hulsbergen]

ATI Catalyst 9.6

ATI has released the Catalyst 9.6 graphics drivers for the HD2000 series and newer under Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7.

The changes in this version include performance improvements in Company of Heroes, Crysis, Crysis Warhead and World in Conflict, and a range of bug fixes.

 

[Sander Hogendoorn]

I won't try them. Since I formatted and installed Win7 last month I finally got rid of the display driver crashes and I don't want to mess it up again

For anyone interested 4870's are going dirt cheap!

ATi have dropped prices on most of their cards and I've heard the price drops will keep on coming.
