Ok.
I did a System Restore, totally removed all drivers and install attempts etc. I installed 10.12a.
Installed fine. However, only averaging 9FPS in 3Dmark11 which at least now runs.
Something is seriously wrong somewhere, surely. Is everyone elses HD6970 running ok with the drivers?
I new I should gotten a 570. Everyone always seems to **** ATI drivers, now I know why.
I had the same issue, try this:

Instead of moaning fix the problem...
Why on earth are you using system restore?
What mobo and what PSU do you have?
Excuse me for being a little annoyed after spending £300 on a card for it to not peform correctly.
.
I did avoid the Preview drivers, thank's anyway
People always blame the drivers rather than themselves
I have had zero issues with ATI drivers
You must be very proud. You know what Thumper says:

Who's Thumper ?
ok i encounter this problem before
what i found was the ati driver has trouble writing over the microsoft driver for the gpu
so when i uninstall the ati driver, windows auto install the microsoft driver, what i did was change it to standard vga driver and install the ati driver and it worked.
hope it helps
