Re: AMD Catalyst™ Software Suite Version 11.9

I just noticed that there are no Overdrive and HW/SW Information tabs in the CCC. I don't really need them, but I wonder if this is a bug? I'm sure the tabs were there in the 11.8.

Haven't installed these yet so I can't say but I might as well do that today to check if they're missing.

They were not missing when I had 11.9 WHQL drivers installed. You may need to try installing again.
