I guess when you release a driver on the 31rst of October you can still use the .10 moniker.

I expect 11.11 in 30min my time....

Mr cairo · Nov 1, 2011, 09:21 AM

All the time i have used Ati drivers and i never realised what the release numbers meant

Cheers for that Tipstaff

Kizo · Nov 1, 2011, 09:55 AM

Does anyone have any info about any differences between these and the 11.10 preview drivers released earlier?

The only real difference, from what I can tell, is that these are WHQL and supported. Preview drivers are "Use at your own risk."

However, there is one thing that I found out after using the 11.10s:

Bezel Compensation - for Eyefinity -- is no longer restricted to screens within a certain range of error. Bezel Compensation can now be used without restrictions at all. There is a Warning that comes up, but, once you click on the OK, you can proceed as you wish.

I had to ask about this since all three of my monitors are identical screens and I was getting that warning.

hi i have installed 11-10_mobility_vista_win7_32-64_ccc and it's not working.after instalation doesn't ask me for restart.please help me

IvanV · Nov 11, 2011, 03:38 PM

Why do you think that it's not working? Not having to restart after driver installation is normal on Vista and Windows 7.

adytzu01 · Nov 11, 2011, 04:49 PM

i user 11.8 and i have win 7 sp1.after finishing instalation he ask me if i want to restart

IvanV · Nov 11, 2011, 04:57 PM

Well, that happens too. Win 7 and Vista usually (or sometimes) don't ask to restart if it's just a driver update and not a whole new piece of hardware, but sometimes it does. Both are normal.

Can you start Catalyst Control Center (or AMD Vision Engine Control Center, whichever name appears)? If you can, go to Information / Software and check Catalyst Version.

adytzu01 · Nov 11, 2011, 08:15 PM

i cannot start the catalyst control center

i have ati hd 5650 1gb.if i put 11.8 i don't see 1gb.if i put the driver from the dell site it works.can you tell me what to do please

IvanV · Nov 11, 2011, 11:48 PM

Try getting the driver from here and download the Catalyst Software Suite.

I think that 11-10_mobility_vista_win7_32-64_ccc which you tried is just the Catalyst Control Center without the driver and that's why it didn't work (for the same reason, don't download Catalyst Control Center from Individual Downloads section. I think it's the same file).

If Catalyst Software Suite doesn't work, I'm asking other members to join in as I don't have first hand experience with mobility cards.

i have download it and it's not working
