How to view AMD driver install logs?

[Dankk]

I decided to download and install the 14.7 RC3 Beta driver today. Installation went smoothly, until the very end when a yellow question mark popped up (instead of the usual green check mark). It said, "Installation completed, with warnings. Click here to view the report log."

This never happens to me. I suppose it wasn't anything serious and I could just ignore the warnings, but I was still kind of weirded out. So I decided to uninstall the driver, do a fresh wipe with Driver Fusion and CCleaner, and then revert back to 14.4 WHQL.

...when I installed 14.4, the exact same thing happened at the end. "Installation completed, with warnings." When I click to view the install log, it just spits out an XML file. As you know, XML files do not display nicely like HTML files and this one in particular is extremely hard to parse. I have no idea where to look for these supposed "warnings". I have no idea what they are. Any help?

If you have an AMD card, the reports are generated in C:\Program Files\ATI\CIM\Reports.

Uhh, no.

Those XML files display fine by default in IE 9, 10 and 11 here.
Although I have had other xml files that would not, those are no problem and haven't been since AMD started using them.
To tell you the truth, I never looked to see what type of file they were and just assumed they were html.

Ah, you're right. Turns out I can view them in IE just fine. Don't know why I didn't try that.

Here's the log. I don't see anything about warnings listed, so I'm thinking I'm probably fine?
