Catalyst 10.4, BC2 runs like crap.

Have you tried Maziar's suggestion yet?

I think this driver is just buggy full stop. People have been getting all sorts of issues with them.
Im glad i decided not to bother and would recomend that others who dont want the hastle of potentially cocking up a perfectly adequatly performing system to give them a swerve as well.
If its just the one game and you dont play it that much then no biggie i guess. Personaly i would go back to the 10.3 drivers.

Mactronix

Which is doing a clean install

Hello.....

first you try to decrease the desktop resolution(dont'ask me why?)
if still game runs same reinstall the older ones for temporary gaming so u wont have to wait, but the best idea will be the
update of the drivers,or try reinstalling the same.If it doesnt work contact....

best of luck comrade..........

I'd say do two things. First, delete all ATI software and drivers, then reinstall the newest versions. Second, make sure you do not install Hydravision. Otherwise... well who knows.

thanks for the suggestions guys (and maz for re opening the thread  ), a normal re-install/repair didn't work, so i did a clean uninstall then re-installed the driver.
the problem seems mostly gone. my framerate is back up to playable levels, though is still lower than it was before. im now getting about 60fps.

my load times are still ultra long though, so that issue doesn't seem to have been fixed for me. slightly confused now...

My loads still the same(over 40 seconds),FPS increase few frames and u can Tab out,but as soon as i enable ATI Overdrive ,crash will follow sooner or later.Reinstalled (cleen,driver sweeper,etc.) twice.

I love uuuuuuuuuuuuu......ATI!!!!!!!!!!

Have you tried re-installing the game too ?
Also check your PM's

cant really reinstall the game maz, as i have the steam version. re-installing would require deleting and re-downloading it. slow speeds and Download caps make that a last resort, right now im fine with just putting up with the load times.

not sure why some people are getting the decreased load times and other's aren't though.

if you have an external HDD, you can make a backup copy of the game to re-install from (i keep all of my steam games backed up on my server so when i need to re-install i don't have to re-install them)

i'm happy about the 10.4's, really helped load times (it was like 35-40s with CF4870 1GB)

Ehh I like Steam for the convenience and sale prices, but yea I prefer having a real copy any day.

i don't in the slightest.

most games these days don't even come with manuals, its just a disk in a case. i can burn my downloaded steam games to a dvd and have that myself. and once i've bought a game on steam, i own it forever. if i lose the disk, my pc fails and i lose all the data, i move to another country or any other strange circumstance, i can just re-download my games at any time.

now im not a huge fan of the steam software, but isure as hell would rather deal with it than a video game store. steam will even refund me if the game doesn't work, try getting EBgames to do that...

I think the true brilliance of Steam is for older games. Try finding an old game like Jedi Knight x, etc., in a store new. No chance, but on steam it is <$10. For newer games, I'm not a huge fan of downloading 10-15GB, so I'd prefer the CD, but it isn't a huge issue normally.
