Catalyst 7.5 Hotfix Update

We have issued a hotfix update to Catalyst 7.5 that addresses an issue with Armed Assault.

Even if you dont play this game, you should still try them out as they are more new than Catalyst 7.5

Thanks.
Now lets hope for some performance increases in HD 2900XT

Also note the June2007 DX 9.0c update released.

 

The R600 wasn't the focus of this hotfix, it was to fix a bug in Armed Assault. But hey you never know, maybe something snuck in there.

 

I see, glad you cleared that up. Have you tried the new June 2007 DX 9.0c update yet (updated link in other post)?

 

check your pm's please

 

thanks Terry and everyone on AMD.ATI driver team

it's now posted on ArmA official support forum to gather feedback ...

Awesome

 

Thanks Terry, good to see your on the ball and listening to the gamers out there! - Means alot to many people.

 

Hi Catalyst Maker,

Will that fix be also release for Vista ?

Thanks.

 

Awesome, will try later.

Too bad this game sucks IMO, I totally agree with this review over here.

 

I doubt this will fix my Crossfire problem, but I'm desperate enough to try it anyway...

 

can the hotfix be installed by itself without the regular Catalyst 7.5 driver package?...I currently am using Catalyst 7.4 and wanted to know if I could just download the new hotfix

 

yes, it can be applied standalone. i uninstalled cat, used drivercleanerpro, then installed the hotfix.
i had a ctd after about 15 minutes of play with corrupted color on desktop. (x1900xt, e6600, xp32)

 

the reason I asked is because I noticed that the hotfix is 53.0 MB while the Catalyst 7.5 CCC driver package is only 39.9 MB...

does the hotfix come with CCC or do I need to install that separately?

 

The reason its so big is because it includes the help files for all languages. Thats how we do hotfixes, just put everything there for worldwide use.

And yes it does include CCC.
just download and install, nothing else needed.

 

Not quite. I need an INF to install them on Windows 2000.

 

This hotfix disables AGP writes on my system, which results in slow 3dmark05 performance. Normal 7.5 are fine.

AMD64 3000+, Saphire X800XT

 

This hotfix isn't a fix: It's made things even more frustrating...
