I suppose this is more an AMD issue, but I thought I'd see if anyone here had seen this before.
I'm running an Alienware M17x R3 with the AMD Radeon 6990M gpu. When I try and use the 11.10 V2 beta catalyst drivers, they install OK and all my Direct3d games work, even showing performance boosts (e.g. Crysis 2 DX11). However, whenever I try and start RAGE, or indeed any OpenGL game, the GPU driver will crash and be restarted by windows. The only way to solve this is to extract the atioglxx.dll file from the V1 betas, and pop it in the RAGE install folder, which allows the game to run OK, but it still runs awfully, no matter what I do with a custom config file. As far as I can tell this GL driver doesn't fully utilise the GPU, as the temperature doesn't reach a level which requires the fan to start.
Anyone know of any way I can get the 11.10 v2 GL driver to work? Or do I need to wait for AMD to release a 'proper' 11.10 driver release, in the mean time putting up with the abominable frame rate.
ok did you erase the old 1 before installing the 11.10 beta2 cuz i didnt the first time and i still got problem with rage, then i wipe the whole driver out unistall it from my computer properties device manager like the old way then install a fresh driver and my game is awesome to be honest here is what i did let me know
listen friend this is whats working for me and i dont have any in my app launch option but the command for the console my specs
ATI HD5770 1GB RAM
Intel core i3 540
4GB DDR3 RAM
Windows XP 32 bits
Catalyst version 11.10 you need to install this but you need to wipe the old 1 out of your system first use sweep drivers if you like then on my ati control center this is what i have and its working
antialiasing 2x check the box morphological filtering
anisotropic filtering 4x
Catalyst AI high quality and check the box where it says enable surface format optimization
mipmad detail level performance
vertical refresh : on unless application specified
antialiasing mode performance
and uncheck if you have it check the triple buffering
then in game video settings
antialiasing none
Vzync off
texture cache small
anisotropic filter low and enjoy the game i can save without problem and quick save too try that and let me know.
