Are you running ATI 5870, 6870 or Nvidia 460?

Is the 10.11 a beta? I admittedly haven't looked for a couple months because 10.8 solved my problem. I'd love to advance beyond 10.8 but it was such a PITA to get my troubles sorted- ATI drivers don't like to go away! Not hard to fix really but too much time wasted erasing drivers, re-installing, etc

Xmas is coming and perhaps a graphics card with it. I had many severe problems with both ATI and NVidia cards in the past four years. Budget is limited. Probably ATI HD 6870 if nothing else appears until then. The ATI "Cayman" seems interesting if it is very high performance for the cost. But how fast will it be? Heard rumors of 30-50% faster than 6870. At what cost?

When SoW comes out, I'll just have to hope that whichever I went with can handle it okay.

Curiously the AMD website does not list drivers for the 6000 series yet.

Perhaps your method of updating is incorrect? It is easy to lose your way during the process.

Basically it's only necessary to use the Ati Catalyst Install Manager. Access that via Start/ Control Manager/ Uninstall or Change (Win 7). Highlight the above Manager and click Change, then select the Express uninstall option in the resulting window. Once complete carry out the requested reboot.
Once rebooted, find the new Catalyst Install.exe (that you downloaded before the above, right? ) and execute. Allow the process to run, allow the new folder to be created, and then reboot when asked to. This should bring you back to the previous settings of your desktop.
There is no need to mess with registry settings or manual deletions - this can cause more problems than it solves.
