Sadly, neither the 11.5 nor the 11.5a hotfix correct my problem with CFX + Eyefinity. I'm still getting the "greatly zoomed in view" with both games making them unplayable with CFX enabled. As long as I disable CFX they play just fine.

And now it's even worse... now it changes to 1280x720 with a black friggin border when I start a 3D movie and theres no way to change it. It was better before, even if it was bad.

Rolling back to 11.4

And why won't ATI respond to this, am I the only one with this?


Edited to add:

I completely uninstalled the drivers and started over with the 11.5 set and now it works as before..... that is it works well but I still have THE FRIGGIN BLACK BORDER that I can't do anything about....

TV is in 1920x1080 mode but the card is sending 1000i @24 Hz which results in a black border to fill the picture out to 1080p...

If anyone can help me make this work properly I'd be extremely happy!

I can't find anywhere to send a support request to ATI about this.... where do I do that?
