S!

Roughly once a month, but there has been "leaks" now and then. Like this latest driver pack 8.74. Testing it now and so far so good.

I tested this driver (Catalyst 10.4 preview Driver) http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles...-4-Hotfix.aspx but still the same.

I know its only a BFBC2 Fix driver but you never know. ;)

I keep testing some "beta" drivers and will make a post as soon as something will change. :)

thanx for being the guinea pig..
how hard could it be to fix it??

Nope this driver does not fix the problem at the moment. :( Sorry if I was not clear enough in the post earlier. :rolleyes:

S!

The driver issue is in good hands guys, just wait. Do not expect every driver release to have a solution. I would wait for the official release notes stating it. It can take more or less time to pinpoint the issues reported, but they are working on it. So patience :)

The Bad Company 2 fix was a major issue for ATI since lots of review sites use BC2 as a test game and they were panning the ATI cards for their long load times. This fix also improves the frame rates.

S!

Most of the benchmark games in the lists I do not even play..maybe STALKER - Call of Pripyat and now Metro 2033.

S!
