    Catalyst 6.12

    The year's final Catalyst (unless there's a 6.13) has been released by AMD.

    Get it from ati.amd.com.

    Feature-wise, 6.12 supports DirectX video acceleration in CrossFire enabled set-ups, along with a handful of bug fixes, yay!

    Bah, you got my hopes up.

    Under "known issues with 6.12"
    During video playback, DirectX Video Acceleration (DXVA) may not be available when CrossFire mode is enabled. This will result in software mode video playback. To enable DXVA, CrossFireâ„¢ mode must be disabled. Further details can be found in topic number 737-23447

    I have upgraded from 6.10 and things seem to be ok. I also bought the new Driver Cleaner software to completely clear previous files out.

    Just tried to install, it crashed half way thru and rebooted.

    Had to use DC to clear the lot and revert to 6.11, which is running fine.
    Cheers, David
