AMD Catalyst 12.9 AMD Official BETA

One thing I have noticed, I can't overclock in this driver set, I get a crash when loading anything 3D, I have to set a profile in afterburner and apply it when in game etc.

Can't say ive noticed that, working normally here.

Maybe a complete fresh uninstall with driver fusion (in safe mode) + a install of drivers+caps+afterburner +redo the afterburner amd official overclock method?

I don't think the AMD official overclock method applies to me, I use unlocked bios, I might be wrong though.

Its slightly different for xfire, but it still works.


AB xcl method above will only unlock the Overdrive limits for the active card. If you have other cards in a crossfire, technically you will have to disable crossfire and plug a monitor into each card and run the xcl unlock process to unlock each card. This can be quite the hassle. Luckily there's an easier way.

Anyways, I extracted the powerplay tables allowing one to edit and not do the song and dance.

*Open notepad, copy paste this in there save it as a *.reg file or rename .reg then merge that into your reg. Edit the "0000" for each card you have. Simply paste/create the key below and label each corresponding key 0000/0001/002/etc for as many entries or cards as you have in the registry. Also with this key, you don't have to create the shortcut sd with Part 1.

**If for some reason it's not working for you, you can simply open up your registry, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E968. Easy way is Local, System, CurrentControlSet, Control, Class, then scroll down to "4D36E9" set then hit the "68" at the end. Inside you find "0000" files, and each folder represents a physical card per slot. So if you moved card 1 that was in slot 1, into slot 4, that will create a new folder. Try not to move cards around too much because it will create a lot of folders, making it confusing. Also, if you followed my manual uninstall method, your registry should be cleaned up nicely.

Ok, now scroll down to the 4D36E968 folder and extract that folder to some place. Open up some place, and edit the reg file. Basically you just delete everything except the table and header from above. And then simply create more entries as instructed above.

I tried the reg edit, still hangs when loading a 3d app while overclocking.

Eh no idea then mate. I have afterburner auto apply my 24/7 overclock on windows boot. However i can switch between profiles before or during game usage with no problems.

I remember something similar happening to me when i had two different cap files installed now i think of it, but i know you won't have that.
 
i got the black screen last night in Borderlands 2, it's when you first meet Brick, there's an intense fight in an arena area below, it took quite a long time to get the game working again.

Anisotropic Filtering is at 16x, i wonder if it's this

Would you be able to teamview into my pc and apply the reg tweaks that way?

I'm not 100% sure I have done it correctly.

I did use afterburner auto profiles fine before this driver, but zero has started working with this set.

Out of curiosity, will this Catalyst work with my HD 5650 Mobility. Never had an ATi graphics card before and reason I ask is because I get odd white lines appearing and disappearing. Cheers

You can try them and see but I had a similar problem with my laptop and it was a problem with the screen not the GPU.

Eh id rather not mate im not an expert on that either.

I extracted that particular bit of information from this thread, maybe if you post there someone with a bit more nous can help.

0IBit Uninstaller might do it. use it to Uninstall the driver and then 'Advance Scan' to remove the remaining bits.

I actually use that as my everyday unistaller, it's pretty good :)

Still having problems with my new 7870 after using driver sweeper. Might just do a reformant as some software is still showing my 6950.

Yeah, Other apps may have created their own Registries based on that GPU and they are now stuck with it.
