Re: ATI Users: XG WarCat 5.12 Drivers Released

Just tried the driver... Seems to be they screw up the nightvision in Bf2:SF for me.

edit: did I say nightgoogle? Ment nightvison :p

Re: ATI Users: XG WarCat 5.12 Drivers Released

In BF2SF i have not had any problems with the night vision. In fact i have used the Omegas before installing these and i have to say that the Warcats are the winner. But both drivers are great. If you don't like the drivers then go back to the Omegas if you are not happy.

Re: ATI Users: XG WarCat 5.12 Drivers Released

Kool, thanks.

EDIT: What the heck. I uninstaled my old Omega drivers and cleaned up with Driver Cleaner Pro and restarted my computer. Then I installed the WarCat drivers and the installation went fine and I restarted my computer again. But then when I tried to open up BF2, it crashes to my desktop, it never did this with any of my previous drivers. Can anyone show me how to get these to work right?

By the way, I tried these drivers with a few other games but BF2 and SF are the only two that seem to be having problems with these new drivers...

Re: ATI Users: XG WarCat 5.12 Drivers Released

Xicer follow these instructions my friend:

1. Uninstall video drivers and control Panel or CCC.
2. If you have Crap Cleaner run it and scan for issues and fix those issues (Crap Cleaner fixes the issues).
3. Roboot to Safe mode.
4. Run the Driver Cleaner Pro and the tool Cab Cleaner that is in the Driver Cleaner Pro.
5. Boot your system back to the desktop. Now windows will tell you that there are some hardware found and would want to run a check on drivers. Windows is a plug & play Operating System so every time you add a new device it will give you a new hardware found prompt. To prevent this you must remove the hardware or let windows try to find the driver if you try to cancel it, it will just show up on the next boot so try to install it even if you don't have the drivers windows will just put it on your system without a driver. It won't hurt your system and you won't get the NEW HARDWARE FOUND PROMPT AGAIN.
** Simple Talk: So just let windows find the driver. Once it does that it will tell you no drivers found (that is what you want). Make are sure to check the box to where you do not want the prompt to show up on your next reboot. This will happen every time you uninstall old drivers.
6. Install the Warcats or what ever video drivers you want.
7. Reboot system
8. Run your driver cleaner and scan for issues. Fix the issues again. Then reboot again
9. Defrag your system.

Re: ATI Users: XG WarCat 5.12 Drivers Released

Thanks widkidone, Ill try that and see if it works. That seems like a lot of work just to uninstall old drivers and install new ones.
