Hello,
Sometimes, when I start win7 (64bits), my screen gets blurred. The solution that I found was: open catalyst, image adjustements and click "default". That makes the screen looks perfect (it shows a black screen for one second after bringing the image again).
I have to do this, everytime I start windows. Also a couple of fullscreen DX9 games mess this up.
Any thoughts?

My specs:
HD6870, catalyst 11.12, monitor: samsung 2033 conected via VGA, windows 7 64bits.

Next time that your screen is blurred, don't go to CCC yet, try to use the auto-adjustment from your Monitor's menu, if it works, it may be just your monitor's problem. (Since CCC will force recalibration after applying an Analogue output setting)

If it happens a lot, I am sorry to say that this problem is what analogue users have to deal with. (I used having an VGA monitor with an card that were always out of sync and I had to always use auto-adjustment.)

To fix this problem permanently, see if your screen supports digital inputs (Like DVI-I and HDMI), and change for an digital cable.

Hope it helps! :)

P.S. Be SURE that your screen supports DVI-I, not DVI-A. DVI-A Is still analogue and is similar to its VGA counterpart.

Yeah, that's right...
Since a couple of days that the screen is not blurred.
In CCC/My VGA displays/Image Adjustments, I clicked on "defaults".
After that I closed CCC, used the auto-adjustment and...voilá...problem solved :)
