They seem to be a good, solid driver set. My only issue is that Anti-Aliasing won't work in FSX or FS9 for me unless I crack the Catalalyst AI up to it's highest setting.

Trev,

I think I read that the control centre needs the .Net 2 framework - might that have been your problem?

Best,
Myles

No, everything should have worked, perhaps I got a dud download. I might try again soon. The programme showed on the list but never came up when I requested it on the desktop :worried:

I had exactly the same thing. Just rolled back, installed .NET 2.0 and went from there. All fine now!

Took me several attempts to get it to install properly too.
Here's what I did for a successful install:

Uninstall the original drivers using ATI's own uninstall prog. (should be in your start menu).
Reboot into safe mode.
Cancel any Windows "found new hardware" messages.
Run "Driver Cleaner Pro 1.5" and remove anything ATI. (http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=745)
Run "Windows Installer CleanUp Utility" (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301)
Reboot into Windows as normal.
Run 7.2 installer.
