I just setup my Win7 machine with a ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT and installed latest ATI CCC driver. First off all I can't get video overlay to work (I want to output a movie full screen to the secondary display while working on the primary display). As an alternative I expected that I could just move WMP (or VLC) to the secondary screen and start the movie there. The issue here is that sound is still on the primary display only. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
I was running the MSI version of the same card on the last build and saw problems with the Cat. 10.3 version's installmanager and simply left the 9.12 on until the new case was up. With the 5xxx series card in now the latest 10.4 went right on while I suspect the latest maybe simply too new for the 2xxx series?
If you can grab an earlier Cat. version prior to the 10.3 release I can easily advise going for it since that would likely go on and run without problems for that model card.
i already installed Catalyst 10.4
when i check driver-info(dxdiag) is says:
date: 7th April 2010
version: 8.723.0.0
Is this correct or i should reinstall it?
thank you.
The Cat. 10.4 is the latest one to come out last month. I won't expect any newer 10.5 or other version to be out until at least a few months have passed.
What he said.
In fact you can always go here for any chatter on upcoming drivers - CATALYST Drivers - Rage3D Discussion Area. In fact I'm surprised there's no mention of them yet (10.5's).
One thing for sute is that you never used to see that before AMD bought ATI out. They now see a regular monthly column about what is new in each newer catalyst version released. AMD at Play
