post #21 of 30
This is why I don't like AMD, when i had my old x550, things were great. Drivers seem to have gone bad since then.

It is not that I don't like AMD. The AMD hardware I own performs very well. With software things can easely go wrong. I think that it counts that it is corrected in an orderly manner. We will see.

There is more to it.

After getting to the point that the Catalyst version is displayed correctly again in the information - software window, I noticed that in the software-update window it stated "AMD Catalyst not available"

I lowered the Windows UAC level to the lowest position.
Rebooted my system
And started C:\AMD\Support\12-4_vista_win7_64_dd_ccc\setup.exe by right-click > run as administrator
This reinstalled Catalyst 12.4 dd and ccc, but I used custom install this time. Did not alter the checked items.

When this was done, I set the UAC back to normal and rebooted my system

Now the version is also reported in the software-update window. "AMD Catalyst 12.4"

Since I checked my registry before and after for the Catalyst_Version key I can sum the keys

Strange but Catalyst Control Center gets version information from different locations.
The version mentioned in the information - software window it gets from:

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0000\
Catalyst_Version

After the reinstall mentioned above I found the following
"Catalyst_Version" registry text keys were added, with the content "12.4"

HKCU\Software\ATI\ACE\Settings\Graphics\UpdateNotification\

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E960-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0000\
HKLM\System\ControlSet001\Control\Class\{4D36E960-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0000\
HKLM\System\ControlSet002\Control\Class\{4D36E960-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0000\

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Video\2AB0D5D0-6699-4C0E-BE84-65F8C2C46A03}\0000\
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Video\2AB0D5D0-6699-4C0E-BE84-65F8C2C46A03}\0001\
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Video\2AB0D5D0-6699-4C0E-BE84-65F8C2C46A03}\0002\

HKLM\System\ControlSet001\Video\2AB0D5D0-6699-4C0E-BE84-65F8C2C46A03}\0000\
HKLM\System\ControlSet001\Video\2AB0D5D0-6699-4C0E-BE84-65F8C2C46A03}\0001\
HKLM\System\ControlSet001\Video\2AB0D5D0-6699-4C0E-BE84-65F8C2C46A03}\0002\

I also found an old Catalyst_Version key that had the content 10.2 here:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services\amdkmdag\

182

Problem seems fixed

Well, that abouth sums it up. Now see if the Catalyst crew can get there installation back in order for the next versions.

My 12.4 driver says the same thing, so it's probably safe to assume you're on the correct drivers.

No it's numbered the same, just follow what we told the OP and it should work.
Also the driver's weren't that great between 1.1 - 1.4 actually now when you mentioned it and i checked my ccc it say's 1.3 as well o.o

Mostly horror stories from some poeple who caused problems for themselves with overclocking.
AMDs drivers are perfectly fine, it's when you start unlocking unofficial overclocking mode without knowing what you're doing things start going wrong.

Catalyst versions are stored in the registry, the reason you're still getting 12.3 is because 12.4 isn't updating the registry.

Not always Arni. I have been fighting drivers since 12.2. Love my AMD build so don't get me wrong but I had it at stock and they have been catawompous for a few updates now. Hoping they get it right though. I really want to pull the trigger on the new 7850 card because of how cool it runs but I can't deal with the crappy drivers. Also don't want to pay the price Nvidia wants.

I have this issue as well. Just used ATIman's uninstaller, and reinstalled fresh 12.4s from AMDs site. Still said 12.3. Decided to update from within CCC, and now it doesn't even say what version, but appears to be current. Odd thing is that I can repeatedly update, and be told there is a 12.4 to download, but if I go to update it, it says I'm current.

Screwy indeed.
