    ATI Users: Omega Drivers 3.8.205 (Cat 6.1) Release

    Link: www.omegadrivers.net

    What's New in Omega Drivers?
    v3.8.205
    [*] Based on the Catalyst 6.1 Official drivers.
    [+] Starting from this set, I will use my own version internally for the Catalyst drivers, instead of using 6.1, 6.2, etc, I will be naming them 6.01, 6.02, etc, this will make the Cat versions less confusing and more "logical".[*] Updated Multires to v1.56. (fixes the "non-supported" resolutions bug)
    [+] New version naming scheme for the Omega Drivers, now is based on the internal ATI version number than in the 2D Display version.


    What's new for ATI Tray Tools?

    [+] "Save Icon Position" module now will save positions for each resolution you will use. Saved positions are incompatible between different resolutions.

      Got them and they definitely fixed the NV issue in SF. Didn't notice any real improvements performance-wise so no difference there.

      Why is it that I can only run on medium settings with a P4 3.0 , 1GB RAM, X850XTPE OC'D, Audigy 2 and A 74GB Raptor? Anyone? Am I right here?

        1GB DDR400 RAM
        X800XT PE (Built by ATi)
        Audigy 2

        Oh yeah and i can get the game running smooth on medium settings with 6xAA on my new computer:
