Same, I can't remember the last time I overclocked a card beyond what it came out the box with.
I tend to like to play games, not fart around with clocks and testing for stability.

Hehe at my age overclocking no longer has sex appeal
,anyway OcUK forums are still good for getting info and feedback .
I overclock like a biatch and the drivers are fine.

I take it this is another fail driver by ati.

I always install drivers over the top. No issues (card had a small overclock for most of the recent ones(,

No, just another fail by ATI users.

I tried to install over it, but the install failed silently. I daren't remove the driver manually incase I can't install a driver at all!
Seems to be a clash with Visual Studio.
I don't actually need Visual Studio on this machine, so I'm trying to remove that first - it installs a lot of crap!

Okay, I found the day I installed Visual Studio, and uninstalled all the stuff installed on that day.
I rebooted. I was then able to install 10.7 on top of 10.4.
For anyone having problems with ATI drivers with Visual Studio installed, check out this info:

I have not updated from 10.4 in a long time.
Since everyone has had nothing good to say about drivers since then and ive never had a single issue.
I have my card overclocked if I get these drivers.
Will the IDLE clocks be increased due to my overclock.
Thats one of the reasons i didnt upgrade because it increased the idle clocks with the new drivers meaning higher idle temps.
Anyone got anything to say about this should i update to 10.7 is there anything to stop the increased idle clock/temp?

Is it worth going form 10.6 to 10.7?

I'm using 10.7 at the moment and have had terrible problems getting Metro 2033 to run.
I was wondering if using an older driver might help?
Seems a common issue with ATI owners.

Rage3D have posted their findings on the 10.7s here http://www.rage3d.com/articles/ati_catalyst_10_7/ .
Overall very positive
Their website is down at the moment.
Interested more on what peeps with 5970 (Sapphire HD) say with the 10.7 - seen x2 negative replies so far (however, my main difference is I am running Eyefinity) - Any potential performance increase would be very much welcome as running BC2 I have everything on or around medium with HBAO off in order to get 60fps.
Played BC2 the other day with just the one monitor and looked flippin epic with everything maxed, so quite a trade off for the x3 monitors vs max graphics settings.
(nb: CPU is a Q9550 @ 3.5)

You will only ever see negative feedback here. Millions of ati users don't log into forums just to say the drivers work like they expect
Oh, and these still lock up my pc then I'm running some gpu accelerated app (flash/vlc) and open eves map screen. But that's been happening to people since 10.1 so nothing new

True, I guess if it were a heat issue or a speed/clock issue, it would do it regardless of what DX mode you set in-game.
Only thing I can think of is perhaps try and do some testing. See if maybes an earlier version of the Cats helps, if not, try running the game without AA/AF, incase it's a glitch.
I take it, running in DX9 or any other mode other than DX11 does not give the same graphical problems?
I know it doesn't help much, but when I first bought Far Cry 2 I couldn't run it in DX10 mode as it would always crash, yet DX9 was fine. Could be a similar scenario that you have here.
yes it will idle at higher clocks
