ATI today releases its 9.7 set of Catalyst drivers, covering HD2000 series and newer cards. The Windows Vista and 7 drivers are available now; XP will be coming tomorrow.
Download and run directly onto the system you want to update. An internet connection is required. If your system is not running Windows© 7 or 10, or for drivers/software for other AMD products such as AMD Radeon™ Pro graphics, embedded graphics, chipsets, etc. Please select your product from the menus above. Feb 11, 2018 Hello, I had an old radeon HD4850 but recently I changed it with a new card HD 6950. I uninstalled every driver, changed the card and installed the new ones, but I noticed that the file that I downloaded has installed the catalyst control center instead of the vision engine control center. Apr 09, 2009 Catalyst Control Center page is missing under OS Display Properties Confirmation dialog box might not appear when applying HDTV 720p and 1080i formats; the resolution will be applied automatically Catalyst Control Center: At the end of the auto-tuning, it might not report that the process has completed successfully.
Changes to Catalyst Control Center are included in this release, as is ATI video encoder support for Windows 7, performance improvements for games where framerates are limited by CPU, and the usual bug fixes.
Below are your new features, performance improvements and resolved issues; check the release notes for known remaining issues if you wish. As always, uninstall the old driver set and, ideally, reboot and use a program like Driver Sweeper before installing the new set.
