Graphics performance degrades when using this driver...

Rob,

On the benchmarking side, I tried to run 3DMark Vantage. The games were Prototype and Burnout Paradise.

I have tried both of the last two ATI Drives for Win7...I am currently on Catalyst Version 9.8.

Windows Version is 64bit (tried both RC1 and RTM).

The first install was RC1 with ATI 9.7 (or whatever was just before 9.8) with these apps. TERRIBLE 3D performance...didn't deinstall DisplayLink...thought it was something else.

Rebuilt again with RTM and ATI 9.7...everything worked great. Updated to ATI 9.8....Everything worked great. Installed DisplayLink software/driver....back to bad 3D (in those apps) performance. Uninstalled DisplayLink...everything is working great.

Steven
