Is the not-clocking-down on overclocked cards when going back to 2D mode fixed?

Unfortunately it's still there. As this change in behavior solves problems for some cards I guess it may take a while before a better method is put in working order. But it must be resolved, of course. Keeping an eye on it.

Haven't had time to try the driver yet. Sad to say I have to keep my card at stock clocks because I don't like this bit at all.

Re: ATI Catalyst™ 10.7 Suite for Microsoft Windows Vista/Win 7

Apparently there are issues 10.7 and Borderlands. I don't know how, but it appears it causes a memory leak which in turn causes the game to freeze, you need to control alt delete to the desktop, wait, then go back to make it run again.
Also, the frame rate is seriously down. I am lucky if I get low 30s.
