I originally encountered this problem with the Catalyst Software Suite 13.9 dated 9/18/2013: Display Driver ver. 13.152 OpenCL(tm) Driver ver. 10.0.1268.1
Catalyst Control Center ver. 2013.0830.1943.33589
Things I've tried since then:
Made sure all legacy Nvidia stuff is uninstalled (except my network adapter, as I am using an nForce 630i board)
Uninstalled everything using the ATI Install Manager express remove then installed the Latest Beta Driver 13.10 dated 9/5/2013.
That didn't work.
I called PowerColor and talked to a tech there. He is going to try my card on a test system on Monday and see if he can recreate the issue. the only suggestion he had that I haven't tried (other than the hardware being faulty) is to take out my motherboard battery and then reinstall the card. I haven't done that yet. Any merit to this?
I then found this thread at the amd support forums where a user described the exact same problem I had back in May:
http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=454&th...
I then followed the moderator's solution exactly...
I did a clean install by
1. Uninstalling everything in control panel with the express remove then uninstalling the AMD install manager.
2. Uninstalled using the AMD Uninstall Utility:
http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/catalyst-u...
(this is OK as I'm in Windows 7 & not 8)
Reboot
3. Followed these steps: After completing the uninstall steps provided in Part 1, restart the system into Safe-Mode.
Log in as the Administrator.
Navigate to the folder, "CWindows\assembly"
Sort the entries by, "Public Key Token"
Locate entries with the public key token, "90ba9c70f846762e"
Delete or uninstall (by right-clicking) all entries associated with that public key token only.
Restart the computer into Normal-Mode.
There weren't any entries associated with public key token, "90ba9c70f846762e" so I assumed they were already removed from the previous steps.
4. Uninstalled Microsoft .net framework 4.5.
Reboot
5. Manually installed Microsoft .net framework 4.5 from
http://www.microsoft.com/net
Reboot
6. Windows update to update the .net framework & everything else
Reboot
7. Installed the AMD Driver Autodetect Utility & installed the recommended drivers, Catalyst Software Suite 13.9 for Windows 7 64 bit.
And...
Nothing. Same problem.
I'm not crazy, right? The AMD Radeon HD 6570 is SUPPOSED to have Edge-enhancement, De-noise (denoising), Mosquito Noise Reduction, De-Blocking, & Dynamic Contrast options, yes?
I'm at my wits end with this. Unless anyone offers a solution by Tuesday, I'm going to RMA this thing and probably just get another card (Radeon HD 7750 or wait for the Radeon R7 250) so as not to waste my time with this headache again.
Anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks in advance...
Update: I just tried the above clean uninstall procedure then installed an older version of the drivers: Catalyst Software Suite 13.4 dated 2013.0328.2218.38225 (which is the one that came with the card).
No change. Same problem.
