I have really strange problem in IL-1946, when I enable perfect landscape I got blackness instead of landscape.
I've tried different versions of Catalyst 8.10, 9.4, 9.2 (A.I. disabled) and always same problem. When I lower landscape details from Perfect to Excellent, landscape becomes visible.

Select an ATI card using the setup icon in IL2 installation folder under video tab.

Then make you resolution settings and make sure

I had the same problems with my 1950xtx, try downloading the 4.09 beta dll's. That worked for me.

You may want to try this first in the CAT panel

Catalyst AI DISABLED

If you have problems finding the dll's

http://files.filefront.com/IL2+dllsrar/;13213539;/fileinfo.html

The files replace the ones in your IL2 installation directory, not the windows system 32 location.

Thank you guys for helping me. This is my current setup that is working.

a) Catalyst 9.2 (with 9.4 I got problems in IL2 and other games too)
Best procedure for installing drivers is to uninstall previous drivers, restart in safe mode and than use DriverSweeper_1.5.5 (http://www.guru3d.com/category/driversweeper/) to remove all graphic drivers.
AAx4 Box
AFx2
A.I disabled
Mipmap - Qualtiy
Vertical refresh - Quality
Adaptive AA - Quality
Open GL Settings - Triple Buffering

b) IL-2 Core DLLs (http://files.filefront.com/IL2+dllsrar/;13213539;/fileinfo.html) - overwrite files in game dir with files from 02272008_core_dll.rar

c) conf.ini
