MS Flight Sim 2004 wouldn't run on my system* with Cat 3.6 so I had to
backup to 3.2. I loaded 3.7 and all's well . IMHO, ATI is doing a pretty good job solving problems with new drivers. Rumor has it that there are awesome goodies in store for us with 3.8. * ABIT BE6II, P3 600 MHz Coppermine, 256 RAM, ATI 95900 Pro, 2-WD 80G JB HDs, Formac 20" LCD display. I know, I know, it's a terribly slow system but I'll put together my new box in a few months. ABIT IC7-G, P4 3.2G CPU, 512 Mushkin Hi-Perf RAM, PC Power & Cooling Turbo Cool 510 Deluxe PS.

Coming out of a 3D screensaver or game, the brightness settings (as well as the rest of the settings under the color tab) all reset back to defaults. This makes my LCD very bright and very washed out. It's a small thing but still a pain to have to open up the control panel every time it changes. Dean |

You know I like the ALL in 1 DL and install, But I'll be damned if it didn't hiccup froze...cnrl alt del revealed a series of
cmdinstall lines....endtasked and the process proceeded. Not much difference on my 9700 but the 7500 seemed much better in UT and that demo of Call of Duty. I didn't benchmark the thing just played the games I've played over time. "Clive" wrote in message ... Anyone got anything good/bad to say about them?

just a thought....I had this on a CRT, it ended up being 'Adobe gamma loader' that was conflicting/causing the problem.

JAD,
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately that was the first thing I have checked.

As others have posted, there is a long list of fixes (and bugs to be fixed)
on the ATi site. I suspect that it's a hang-over from the Omega drivers, but I see that the 9700 Pro clock rate on my system has remained at 378 / 337. The colour temperature is cooler.

The Call of Duty demo crashes every time with a corrupted display with
Catalyst 3.7, and had no crashes under 3.6. This is on a Abit NF7-S + 9700pro + WinXP. rms |
