There are, but with how ATI work on their drivers the leaked 10.4's could have newer/different stuff than the 10.5's.

These drivers at least are dated later than the 10.5 beta's.

Well, the rolling flickery lines are still present, big fail again by Ati, game also froze with looping sound 5 minutes in, this could just be the game though as it's present no matter what drivers ive tried

You are using the April 7th profiles right?

* Battlefield Bad Company 2 Fix - horizontal lines are no longer observed when running an ATI CrossFireX configuration
* Battlefield Bad Company 2 Fix - flickering and black square corruption is no longer observed when running on single card ATI Radeon products
* Forcing on Anti-Aliasing through ATI Catalyst Control Center is now supported in the following titles: Supreme Commander 2, Dirt2, Avatar and Battlefield Bad Company2 (single GPU configurations)
* StarCraft(r) II: Wings of Liberty beta on ATI Radeon™ 5800 products running in an ATI CrossFireX configurations : moving units near the edge of a cliff no longer causes them to fall because the height field is corrupted

Cheers for the heads up on the newer profiles, didn't know that and only just started playing BC2 the other day, will get that installed tonight.

Think will wait for the official drivers to come through before installing them though!

These may be 10.3b altered by an end user to appear to be 10.4s as the opengl and d3d drivers look REALLY familiar. Downloading myself to have a gander

James J · 8 Apr 2010 at 21:58

Not sure what to make of these yet. Had a few games of BFBC2 and had my first ever CTD but then was fine for 2 hours so might not have been driver related. Image quality and speed seem pretty good. Looks like it has the opengl 4.0 ogl file in these but then with a newer d3d (which is still 10 builds behind the 10.5 betas)

However, no popup with these in BFBC2 which is present in the 10.5 betas so I'll have to try a few other games and see if they are truly any good.

Is anyone else getting a gray screen with with vertical lines in battlefield bad company? Also makes a funny noise too.

I've just tested these drivers and no fix.

I've just spent £350 on this 5870 for this, so ***** off.

Have they stopped the ridiculous loading times?

Try the 10.3b preview drivers, and then the new crossfire/profile update linked in the other thread. That seems primarily aimed at BFBC2, you can't get too ****ed off because a BETA doesn't work properly...it is after all a beta, and NOT an official release.
Also what do you mean by funny noise? If its just a whining, that CAN be normal, although if it's really pronounced from the card, you may have a faulty one, bad caps in the power regulation etc.

Dice need to fix DX10 mode for BFBC2. get bad input lag.

Nope still 20 seconds +

dmxdex2020 · 9 Apr 2010 at 00:44

Load times are not an issue for DX9. but DX9 does get the annoying spawn lag and laggy weapon screen sometimes. Not sure if this is a ati issue or a dice issue.

Problem is you can't have AA in dx9 mode

I'd rather join 10/20 seconds after everyone else just to keep the AA on 4x lol

dmxdex2020 · 9 Apr 2010 at 01:26

Yes but DX10 has terrible input lag which makes shooting horrible.
