Alright, so here is what happened:

i had the 4.9catalysts on my comp. im running a 9700 pro w/ a x8xt pe on the way. Anyways, when i put the 4.12 betas on my comp, the screen got all jumbled w/ shit everywhere like it is overheating insanely. I tried uninstalling the drivers and cleaning them and then putting my old ones back on but the same thing happens. although, when i uninstall the drivers it goes abck to normal. does anyone know what may be wrong or how to fix this problem?

Thanks, please help cuz hl2 is out tomrrow haha
 
Thats what happened to me.... But after I restarted it acted like I never had drivers in.. Weird.... :-\
 
Yeah. I just ran driver cleaner 3 then I reinstalled the 4.11s and restarted. And viola, everything was back to normal.
 
Well... the beta drivers are made for 256 cards are they not?
 
sorry, dont answer that one; im gonan go try it and see ill say if it works.
 
no, actually they are not made for 256mb cards. it says they work with anything up from a radeon 9500 and i know they dont make any cards with more than 128mb up until the 9800...
 
thanks for the help shamrock, but unfortunately it did not work for my system. i used driver cleaner 3 and then tried installing the catalyst 4.8s and the same problem occured. if anyone else has ideas please speak out. thanks.
 
Your welcome. You should try a system restore to right before you installed those drivers. I don't know if that would help any, but you never know.
 
o ya man! i never thought of that. thanks for helpin me man, i just dont want my comp to be ****ed up for hl2 haha. im gonan try it and ill get back. thanks again.
 
nah, still didnt work. do you guys think my ocmp will be fixed after i get my new gfx card in?
