Ah, if only I could get anything since 10.x to work I'd be happy. So far all the 11.x builds have been bad news. Screen flickering, CCC2 failing to load/display the UI, buggy HDMI audio (drop outs etc).

Remove your overclock and retest.

I have same problem as you. And i dont understand why do i need to remove my overclock to install bad drivers?

caveman-jim · Mar 24, 2011, 01:47 PM

You don't. You need to remove your overclock to determine it's not a system stability issue, right now. Overclocked means you verified it as being stable, and most people don't do the same stability and performance testing that the guys who make the hardware do, to verify correct operation at a certain speed. So it's possible that a beta driver can find a flaw in your system operation. Both could be a problem. Just one could be a problem. You don't know, because you haven't verified when it work and when it doesn't.

Its not just beta driver. I have this problem since 10.12 driver. I have no problem at all with 10.10e and any previous i tried. But since 10.12 they introduced something which doesnt work properly for me. Same as the guy above - flickering, 99% GPU usage after game is closed etc. Not only i have this problem

I think 4 months passed since we got this and nothings changed which is very sad.

Let me fix that statement for you.

"Try removing your overclock, if you have it, and see if it helps."

While I appreciate the advice, I don't have my cards overclocked number 1) and number 2) I don't see how an overclock will help with a .net coding issue with the CCC2 ui

It may help with the flicker, IF I had the cards overclocked, which I don't. So back to square one.

I think we are wasting our breath.

Oh but maybe if you reboot your system three times while standing on your toes and howling at the moon. You don't know if it will work unless you try it...

Like you I've had to go back to 10.11 drivers which are stable.

caveman-jim · Mar 24, 2011, 11:49 PM

Your system is overclocked. Remove the overclock. It is more likely your overclock is unstable than you have identified a .net coding issue with CCC2 UI, don't you think? I'm sure you have extensive .net programming and debugging experience, hence your analysis of it being a fundamental problem with the code instead of your system running so far from specification, right?

I've had my system hard lock on me twice now since trying the march 23 version of the drivers... once during bad company 2 and another time just browsing the web. (IE9)

Gone back to the march 7 drivers again until amd officially release a new preview version.

edit: running 6870 crossfire, haven't had one problem in the two weeks of running the march 7 verison.
