Thanks. I wonder if they fixed the Youtube flickering bug I've been having in Internet Explorer 11, or if that's on Microsoft to fix.

Don't care, where is my CFX driver?

Also, I've had more BSODs with Preview 8.1 and AMD's other 8.1 driver than I ever had with Windows 8 and regular drivers.

And this was caused from just switching options in CCC. Woof.

I'd care more if going from 8 to 8.1 didn't break a laundry list of software - from drivers to games.... Seriously why is this?

That said, yes where is my CFX driver???

Eight more days AMD, then I'm storming your leased head quarters like a knight in Chivalry.

Also why do I have to suffer texture fade and LOD halo's in UE3?

RAGE!!!!!!!!!!!! Which I'm also playing is utterly unplayable with CFX !!!!!!!!!!RAGE

Oddly enough, I was having the occasional bluescreen with the 12.6 Beta 2 drivers and previous drivers in Win 8 (which always seemed to be related to running Internet Explorer 10 and Firefox at the same time). Since installing Win 8.1 and the preview drivers a few weeks ago I haven't had a blue screen.

Just out of curiosity have you tried radeonpro or other workarounds?
