Hi I need some info. I have a Windows 7 x64 ultimatte, Gygabite HD 7950 3gb ram video card running with the latest catalyst drivers, AMD fx8350, 16gb ram and 2 HDD. I use Maya 2012 and Arnold render, but for some reason when I color pick or make a ramp material in MAya it hangs up! and stops working. Should I roll out to a standard microsoft windows 7 x64 ultimatte driver or maybe the catalyst driver is making all the error?

This was a clean install for I purchased these components and made a fresh win 7 x64 installation. Maybe the catalyst drivers are no good for Maya? Any ideas on what to do? By the way all high performance setting and overrides of the 7950 are deactivated.
