Thanks for the links! I am curious about something though: I was using W7 RC1 and was up to CCC 9.9, and now I install W7 retail and the current CCC release is 9.1? What's up wit dat?

I see you closed my thread, OK no problem you are a Mod, but your thread here is just a news report 'something happend' your first post stated nothing about experiences or cause or requested any input. It was your thread so I didn't want to intrude on your thread so I started a thread to ask the forums members about their thoughts and experiences with the new drivers you know 'a discussion thread'; and you close it. Then you expand your thread with "please post your experiences here ". Is THG running out of disk space? It's good to be King.

I downloaded 9.10 and that's what I got. The question is why is the current version 9.10 when last month I was using 9.90?

:??: Okay, I feel kinda dumb now that I understand that. However as an engineer, it is counterintuitive. I mean it is what it is, but in the math world 9.1=9.10 - so maybe you can understand my confusion. In my world the next version after 9.9 would either have to be 9.91, 9.95, 10.0, etc. Anyway, thanks for the clarification! :pt1cable:

I downloaded it this morning (Vista64) and played COD4 for 3 hours and no problems. (HD4850)
Of course I didn't have any problems with any of the other versions either.

It confused me at first too. The previous version really should've been 9.09 and not 9.9, but they can use whatever scheme they want, lol.

There's nothing cryptic about how they name their drivers. They release drivers every month. January 2009 was 9.1, February 2009 was 9.2, October 2009 is 9.10 etc... They up the first number in the first release of a new year. The January 2010 driver will be 10.1. It's pretty simple once you understand it. :)
