OH, but when i try and install CCC it never installs.

I remember in windows XP the was a ATI icon in task tray, and then in Vista and 7 it was never there

You only downloaded the driver and not the CCC, remember?

The Downloads page shows the latest driver to be 9.12, but some here are saying that is only the Catalyst version and that you have the latest driver: Drivers & Support | GAME.AMD.COM

Maybe some of the Catalyst experts here can explain to you why you may or may not need Catalyst Control Center. I've always thought of it as bloatware, unless you want specialized controls over your card..

i download the CCC last time we were trying to update driver

Every time someone has a driver problem one of the first posts will be to use "Drive Cleaner", try these beta/hacked drivers, or just install the driver and dump this or that because it's "bloatware".

Here's an idea... How about we get the "correct" drivers installed?

I agree that it is best to try the simple things first. In this case it would be to download and install the new drivers to see if the problem is rectified (Which I did say in my first post, though after all of the clean driver method). Problem is that when you are around so many different scenarios in which there could be many different issues and different ways of addressing them that there seems to be the easy fix method and if that does not work then there is the overkill method that takes care of pretty much everything in order to save time troubleshooting.

Also it is good to have different people with a mix of opinions when addressing problems so that we can see things from different angles and find the solution faster.
