Catalyst control center error message and monitor resolution low.
My story:
Computer: Advent D1411 (Refurbished)
Graphics Card: Asus AMD Radeon HD 6670 (Brand new)
Monitor: Samsung 21.5" LED Monitor
OS: Windows 7 64x
Accidently damaged and broke my graphics card Asus AMD Radeon HD 6670, bought a replacement (the exact same card).
Plugged it in expecting everything to pretty much pick up where the old one left off only to find CCC won't start, the resolution is stuck on 1600x1200 when my monitors resolution is 1920x1080 and in general text doesn't look the sharpest.
All games and video seem to work flawlessly but this is seriously winding me up and I feel like smashing the entire computer
I've tried uninstalling all the drivers incase they somehow got damaged and reinstalling them through AMDs latest download and that just didn't work flat out, wouldn't install graphics driver.
Tried using AMD Cleaning utility and that seemed to clean it out and I reinstalled, back to my first problem, resolution capping at 1600x1200 and CCC won't work (See attached picture).
It's annoying me a lot more than it probably should and my frustration is getting the better of me.
Additional notes:
When I had the AMD driver utility finished the resolution could be changed upto crazy what I think is 4:3 resolutions (1944x1480 or something) but no 1920x1080 resolution.
Before I broke the old graphics card everything was working flawlessly, no software changes made between getting the new one until I was trying to fix my problems.
