The 10.2 Beta posted above seems to have smoothed things out a bit in BC2 Beta, but still no crossfire logo and a flatline on usage at 0% on the 2nd gpu (looking at msi afterburner).

Basically, since 10.1, my second card is non functional.

I just got a ATIKMDAG blue screen. There are def problems with this 10.1 driver. I was playing BFBC2 and all of a sudden there was like black walls and weird stuff. Then locked up and blue screen all I caught was ATIKMDAG or PAG or something like that. Is there an official hotfix or what. Or should we go back to 9.12......

This and my mouse cursor problem is ridiculous. I have never ever ever had so many problems with video drivers till I got this ATI card. I am not angry I am just saying what should I and we with new problems with this driver do.

I myself just went back to the 9.12 hotfix. Sounds like you would benefit doing the same. I'm just going to wait for the next driver. and will be a little more slow to download the next one until I see other people experience improvements. Until then I will just stick with what works for me.

Well now I just got a Display Port link failure pop up from ATI this the first time I have ever seen this so..... Well I am going to go back to 9.12. It worked besides the shortcuts. But I would rather have no blue screen issues, cursor issues, and DP link failure issues then have working shortcuts. I have no idea why 10.1 was even released.

No issues with the new drivers for me so far. With the 9.12 hot fix, Crysis at 7680x1600 would not run with Catalyst AI enabled and use only one GPU of a 5970. This is now resolved with 10.1 giving me a performance boost of about 40%.

Unfortunately I've found a bug that I've seen in some other forums as well... With my monitor configuration, my monitors will no longer go to sleep automatically. I'm using a DellP2210 via display port, a Sony FW-900 via a DVI->VGA adapter, and a Samsung226CW via DVI. I can put the computer to sleep manually and then the monitor will go off, but the standard automatic monitor blanking doesn't work. This is kind of a big deal for me as my active power draw then the monitors are on is >155W.

I can't let my lcds go into sleep mode either... if I do, they come up with the display group broken and I have to re-create the group, then re-sequence the lcds.. it happened with 9.12hf drivers also.. not a huge deal, but eventually it would be nice if this recovered more gracefully.

No problems here with 10.1 except that on restart the EF group gets broken up in 3 identical ones. I have to recreate the EF group. After that, switching between extended and EF works fine with hotkeys. Not a huge deal since I rarely restart my computer.
