Armed Assault versus Catalyst 6.x-7.x visual bugs

Just in case someoen else encouter visual errors like below


such visual errors You see aren't caused by overheating ...
as they happens with cards running in lowest possible clock too ...

anyway it seems affected users are x1600/1650/1900/1950 serie ownes with catalyst 6.x - 7.x ...

thread about it there with more details and locations where to find these
iB::Topic::Some graphic bugs...

there was more threads about it i just don't have time to find and merge them all atm ...

also ATI support website is goner and AMD driver support link is faulty
as it links to ATI website with expired session message ...
so no way to check ticket status or update/add tickets

---
to be fair i'm unsure if this is problem of all drivers or just newer ones
as several ArmA users reporting it with 6.1x drivers too
---
thanks for answers , tips and ideally another hotfix to fix this
(why? well datadisk is out at end of month)

This is odd. I was able to get to the ATI/AMD Support site just fine.

Advanced Micro Devices Inc. - "); document.write(window.document.location); document.write("


However, I don't play this game and only tried the demo some time ago. Didn't seem to have any issues that I recall. Just didn't catch my interest that much.

yeah i noticed i'm able too now via original ATI pages
but not directly thru support page as that one leads to
Support Home

and on right there is [COLOR=#810081]Contact Graphics [/COLOR][COLOR=blue]Support[/COLOR] which leads to session error @ ATI website

anyway thanks for trying to help me

about the bug ,
it's laterly introduced 'grass' layer and it seems there is problem with how ATI driver handles it
atm i'm not aware of any NVIDIA user with same issue
