Try the guide I made.
The guide that you need to up-date E? ;)

I installed the 11.4 official driver today and never had a problem. Just uninstalled the ATI Catalyst install manager, rebooted... went into the hidden folders and deleted ATI and checked AMD folders just to be sure...

Re-booted... dropped in the mobo's CD and re-installed the chip set driver's
*that were removed during the ccc uninstall*

Ran the CCC installer and never had a problem sense doing it this way.


Erocker did you put your finger in something you mother warned you about? And now your in the hospital.... I hope everything's ok?

I would try putting everything back to stock. When i mean everything im talking about CPU, GPU and RAM all back to factory settings and install. Reoverclock and find your stable settings for each one at a time. I had this problem before with my 5870 and it was a user error not a driver error.

Thanks for the post.

If it were my overclocks, then 11.2 and 11.3 wouldn't work without any problems.

I've also taken each card out and found the stable settings for each card.

I just figured how to get 11.4 to install without any problems..including the HD audio driver. I do a custom install and install everything but the driver first...restart and then install the driver.

However, Crossfire still doesn't work for me with 11.4.

Try taking one card out restarting your system then after that turn it back off and reinstall the other card this time put the crossfire ribbon in the other way . Maybe that will wake it up ? Try also put the cards in the other slots ( switch them around ) .

I've already tried this.... lol

I'm out of the hospital now.

Why are you installing chipset drivers off of your CD? Download the latest off of AMD's site. What needs to be updated in the guide? Please post it there, thanks! :)

*Oh tested BFBC2 with 11.4's and it's smooth as butter.

I just dropped everything to stock clocks and reinstalled 11.4..guess what - still Crossfire FAIL for me.

Keep in mind that I can go between 11.2 and 11.3 within a matter of minutes and crossfire works for both....as soon as 11.4 is installed, crossfire performance takes a huge nose dive..Crossfire performance with 11.4 is ~55-60% of what it is with 11.3.

I give up...I've been at this over a month.

Back to 11.3 it is....

Im just bustin ur ballz E lol.

I see no AHCI driver when installing the ccc... When I run the cd It scans the driver and says this driver needs to be installed.


After that I run the latest ccc installer and select custom install- That way it shows if there is any thing left out.

It works great so who am I to say? :eek:

Oh, the disable ULPS option in Trixx misses a couple of lines in the registry with 11.4. It's a quick fix.

So I'm seeing now why the performance with 11.4 is much lower for me than it was with 11.3.

When I run Afterburner 2.2, it shows that GPU 1 is running anywhere from 45%-65% while GPU 2 is pegged at 99%. In 11.3, both always did 99%.

Anyone have any suggestions as to how to force 99% usage on GPU1?

Thanks for your input and efforts.

It's better for you using 11.3 drivers over the 11.4?

You have something going on wrong bro!!!

those lists are often less than 1/3 of the actual changes. some of the best drivers for 5K cards (10.10e and 11.4 preview) didnt mention pretty much any 5K fixes that they actually did.

Cat 11.4 are pretty good. I especially love the new profiles system. Now i can set one profile with regular FSAA and AF and another one with MLAA and AF. Before 11.4 i had to switch every setting by hand, but now i can do it with 1 click. And then i also added Max Quality profile with all settings set for max quality without any optimizations for older games.

Though there is a small bug. If you don't enter tooltip info, the settings won't be stored. Profile is created but no settings are stored in it. Just copy the profile name to the Tooltip field as well and settings will be stored. Or make a description.
