When My PC is booting into windows - after the welcome screen and just when the desktop appears, the monitor turns completely black - I see a few seconds of the desktop , it turns black again and then the booting has finished and the desktop appears as normal

Its a little alarming but anyone else seen this?

Yup its normal, its the CCC kicking in as if you notice when straight after it goes blank for a second the CCC icon appears in your system tray (ATi logo). :)


I hadnt but thank you - are ATI becoming more lax with the CCC, this shouldnt happen surely? It didnt with 6.7 or 6.5 as far as I remember

The Catalyst Control Centre is simply a horrendous piece of coding IMO, and whoever typed it should have their fingers cut off or squished in a vice. I strongly suggest trying out the Display/WDM Driver + ATI Tray Tools option, it loads instantly and has no memory footprint to speak of.


Crossfire doesnt work yet with Tray Tools - or is that the other ATI system tray applet?
 
I disagree - My 9800 pro never flashed like this, when I had the 7900 GT it never flashed this badly either and I dont recall the 6.5 ever flashing like this?
