Don't bother with CCC or .NET - just use ATi Tray Tools with ATi's base driver.

Why the CCC loads instantly now

Hmm, well, I must try that.

Wouldn't it'd be strange that an older version of it would fix anything to that matter ? Is 2.0 even "final" anyway ? I'm not sure if Microsoft ever clearly stated so or not. I remember there was some "Beta" version for 2.0, but if I recall correctly, the one I downloaded was two weeks ago, and did not have anything labeled "Beta" for it. It just said "2.0".

Oh well ...

I though CCC still required .Net version 1.1 to run, and having version 2.0 would speed it up, but it still requires 1.1 installed. Oh well, I don't bother with CCC anyways. Ati Tray Tools FTW.

If you aren't going to use CCC, please don't download the full package just for the driver and possibly WDM. Get them seperate and then ATI will know you are choosing not to use that crap.

no improvements in Oblivion?
[i am gonna wait . . . 425 hours into the game and i don't wanna mess anything up]

. . . and how much of a performance hit can i expect with Adaptive AA on my x850xt?

[edit: i am guessing it will be great for older games - HL2 and older - horrible for Oblivion]

Does anyone know if you can enable Adaptive AA ingame (with Source) or do you have to do it in the driver?

I see in ATI Tool there's a setting for it, with 3 settings Off, Performance, and quality. If I set it to Performance, will it still leave AA off if I disable it ingame I wonder.... I hate switching settings in the driver every time I fire up a different game.

Any thoughts on these drivers? Do they fix the screen corruption and overclocking issues that people were having with 6.4? I'll probably switch to these tonight if there are no major problems.

How are 3DMark scores?

I wasn't really having many problems with 6.4, but the 6.5 got rid of the weird junk screen at bootup. also my PC stopped freezing (altho I don't know if that is what did it). No problems in Oblivion so far.

From the looks of things, seems to be identical to the 6.5 Betas I'm using abet the WHQL certification.
