crossfire 6950 issues since i installed the latest drivers

[eastyy123]

when i installed the latest drivers everything seemed to work ok but after i rebooted the desktop flickers ( with extreme image tearing its so bad can may using the mouse almost impossible).When i reinstall the drivers it goes back to normal until i reboot again i tried uninstalling a reverting back to previous drivers but no luck .

Has anyone else had this issue ?

did you fully uninstall the old drivers and use Driver Sweeper to clean the rest as i had the same problem with my HD 6950 and that solved it.

Who uses driver sweeper these days.

you say the latest drivers, but which ones? were they beta, or the WHQL 12.10?

 

[eastyy123]

12.10 when i got the problem tried the beta 12.11 tried drive sweeper but still get the same problem think it might be time for a fresh install with windows 7

I installed the latest 12**10 driver and my system is pretty poor performing as well** I have a single 6870** In Black Ops my system lags often** This system has been smooth as butter with all other drivers in the past 2 years**

This is such a joke!

And I thought it was just me.
With the latest released version (non beta)
i get tearing, stuttering video, and generally poorer performance than the previous revision. I'm glad I kept the previous rev installer...time to remove and install.

The newest drivers broke my games on my 5850 (Steam, BF3). Then I tried the beta drivers, which didnt change anything. Reinstalled the 12.8 suite and everything was back to normal.

interesting, I found that the 12.10 seem much better than the 12.8 in ETQW and WoT, and BF3 seems about the same. I have 6950 xfire, play games at 1600p. I think the biggest bonus is I dont need to turn off Xfire in ETQW and WoT to get a good frame rate.

Looking forward to 12.11 WHQL

I guess I should not assume things - I though for sure I had .net4 framework installed like AMD mentioned for this driver. Im going to install and see how the driver is after.
